Manuals of product ECOSYS M2640idw

First page image of the manual for ECOSYS M2640idw

The Kyocera ECOSYS M2640idw printer stands out for its impressive performance, offering a printing speed of 40 pages per minute, ideal for demanding work environments. Its paper feeding capacity can reach up to 850 sheets, thus reducing interruptions when printing large volumes. Additionally, the laser printing technology ensures high-quality results for both text documents and images, while the high-resolution color scanning feature allows for faithful reproductions. However, this device also has some drawbacks. The duplex copying function is not automatic, which can make double-sided printing operations more cumbersome. Furthermore, the maximum output capacity of 150 sheets may be insufficient for high-volume printing users, leading to frequent interruptions to empty the output tray. Its weight of 19 kg can complicate moving the device, and the lack of Bluetooth connectivity limits wireless printing options. In terms of evaluation, the user experience is rated positively with a score of 80, thanks to an intuitive interface, although the manual copying function may be a drawback. Performance is excellent with a score of 85. The features, while varied, receive a score of 75 due to some limitations. The design gets a score of 70, highlighting the functional aspect but emphasizing the weight. Finally, the value for money is rated at 70, due to the high cost of cartridges for high-volume users, although the printer is designed for durable use. Overall, the Kyocera ECOSYS M2640idw is a solid choice for professionals looking for a versatile and high-performing printer, provided that its few limitations are taken into account.
