Compact and Affordable

Every day, the staff of a typical office or workgroup are challenged with

complex printing demands. The magicolor 2550 Series printers were

designed to meet their specific needs. These versatile color laser

printers deliver the ease of use, compatibility, and professional quality

they require, but at the same time they fit within space and budget

constraints.

In fact, the magicolor 2550 EN and 2550 DN are the perfect fit for

almost any desktop and budget. Although compact enough for

practically any workspace, they can easily handle the demanding

requirements of both small offices and workgroups.

Designed for quiet operation, the unobtrusive magicolor 2550 Series

printers are available at little more than a moment’s notice, delivering

the first black-and-white page in as little as 13 seconds and the first

color page in only 22 seconds.

Full front access means reloading supplies and clearing media jams is a

snap, so space is not an issue. In addition, professional-quality color

and cost-effective, high-capacity toner cartridges (4,500 prints) keep

printing in-house, saving both time and money.

Printing Power and Performance

The magicolor 2550 Series printers feature Emperon printing

technology, which boosts printer performance and enhances image

quality while simplifying the entire printing process. More than just a

controller, Emperon is a robust combination of hardware functionality

and software tools that provides unprecedented ease of printer

installation and management as well as the printing quality, speed, and

versatility that today's competitive businesses require. The 300 MHz

PowerPC CPU quickly processes even the most complex files while the

DDR SDRAM doubles the data throughput and swiftly delivers print jobs.

Both printers handle all common types of business media (plain paper,

thick stock, glossy stock, transparencies, labels, and envelopes), and

the magicolor 2550 DN includes automatic two-sided printing. An

optional hard disk provides additional storage for fonts, forms, and

profiles; electronic collation; job accounting; direct PDF 1.4 printing; and

secure printing functions.

Key Features

It’s no longer necessary to rely on larger, more

expensive printers to have the quality, speed, and

functionality you require.

The magicolor 2550 EN and 2550 DN fit

unobtrusively in any environment. They’re

perfect for field employees who need to

print a quick document or two from a

laptop while visiting the main office.

Ease of Setup and Operation

Easy setup and operation are hallmarks of KONICA MINOLTA printers,

and the magicolor 2550 EN and 2550 DN are no different. Pre-installed

4,500-page, high-capacity toner cartridges and auto-install software

mean they are out of the box and printing in just minutes.

Customers in networked environments will be pleased to find that the

installation software automatically detects the printer on the network and

quickly guides them through printer setup.

Print jobs can be customized easily with comprehensive printer drivers

that offer collation, fit-to-page scaling, separation pages, watermarks,

tray selection, and many other features. The PageScope™ suite of

printer utilities offers robust printer configuration and management for

remote network administrators while the embedded PageScope Web

Connection allows all customers to monitor print activity and supply

levels without having to walk over to the device.

Technical support is US-based and toll-free for five years. Answers

to your questions are always easily available via both the telphone

and the Internet at www.konicaminolta.com/support.

Brilliant, Consistent Color

A legacy of innovative color technology from KONICA MINOLTA ensures

outstanding image quality on both the magicolor 2550 EN and

magicolor 2550 DN. With the 9600 x 600 dpi-class Photo ART quality

and dynamic contone screening of KONICA MINOLTA Emperon

controllers, the magicolor 2550 Series printers deliver amazing

photographic detail, smooth color gradients, and crisp text.

Power users and novices alike will benefit from advanced color

features. Enhanced Automatic Image Density Control (eAIDC) ensures

consistent, accurate color from the first page to the last and from one

document to another, even during intensive, long-term use. Industry-

standard automatic ICC-based color matching provides automatic or

single-button controls for color correction of print files.

KONICA MINOLTA Simitri™ Polymerized

Toner produces sharper output, finer text,

and smoother halftones than conventional toner on all common

types of media. With a life expectancy of over 100 years, Simitri toner is

also environmentally friendly, reducing toner and energy usage.

9600 x 600 dpi-class Photo ART quality

and dynamic contone screening produce

vibrant colors, rich blacks, realistic

photographs, and crisp text.

Cross-Platform Compatibility

The magicolor 2550 Series printers are the ideal printing solution for

diverse workgroups. With Windows, Macintosh, and Linux compatibility,

the magicolor 2550 Series printers are at home in any printing

environment.

The 10/100BaseTX Fast Ethernet interface provides high-speed

network printing for busy workgroups while USB 2.0 and parallel ports

are also available for local operation. Support for NetWare®, TCP/IP,

EtherTalk®, and NetBIOS/NetBEUI ensures smooth integration into

mixed network configurations. PostScript 3 and PCL 6 emulations

support most popular software applications, providing seamless creation

and processing of color documents.

With an optional hard disk, PDF direct printing is also available.

“This type of excellent service is almost

unheard of in these days of offshoring, etc.

Within the past week I was on the phone

with a Hewlett-Packard Tech Support

person from India, and I could barely

understand him during most of the 45-

minute torturous encounter.”—Robert K.
