Editorial note

The Kyocera Ecosys M5521cdw is a laser printer that stands out for its printing speed, reaching 21 pages per minute in both black and color. Its maximum resolution of 9600 x 600 DPI ensures high-quality prints, ideal for professional use. Additionally, it offers useful features such as secure printing and the white page skip function, contributing to effective document management. However, this device has some drawbacks. The duplex printing mode is manual, which may be less convenient for those who want automatic double-sided printing. The internal memory of 512 MB may also limit performance during heavy printing tasks. Furthermore, the lack of duplex scanning can slow down the process for multi-page documents, and its weight of 26 kg makes it difficult to move in dynamic work environments. In terms of user experience, the interface is generally satisfactory, although the absence of a touchscreen may complicate navigation through certain settings. Printing performance is solid, but memory limitations can affect efficiency. The design is functional, although the weight poses challenges in terms of mobility. The printer's features are varied and suited to modern needs, but some functionalities, such as duplex scanning, could be improved. The value for money is satisfactory, especially considering its fast and high-quality printing capabilities. Nevertheless, it is important to take the mentioned limitations into account. Support documents, such as the manual and FAQ, are available, but online support options could be strengthened. Regarding documentation, it is comprehensive and accessible, facilitating the installation and use of the product.
