Editorial note

The Panasonic KX-MB2120 is a multifunction printer that offers solid performance for professional use. With a printing speed of 26 pages per minute and a resolution of 600 x 600 DPI, it effectively meets common printing needs. Duplex printing and color scanning add significant value, allowing for optimized paper usage and accurate reproduction of documents. However, the product has some limitations. Its weight of 12 kg can make it difficult to move, especially in tight spaces. Additionally, the lack of Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity limits its integration into modern environments, which can slow down workflows, particularly for users wanting to quickly send scanned documents. The 250-sheet paper capacity may also be insufficient for high-volume environments, requiring frequent reloads. In terms of user experience, the intuitive interface is appreciated, but the lack of a digital sender could lead to inefficiencies. Nevertheless, the value for money is compelling, especially for features like duplex printing. The provided documentation is comprehensive and helpful, although the potential need for additional technical support should be considered due to connectivity limitations. Overall, the Panasonic KX-MB2120 is a solid choice for professionals looking for a reliable and high-performing printer, but it could be improved with modern connectivity features.
