The 850i and 950i, named for their print speed of 85 and 95 pages per minute, respectively, were unveiled last month and are available to purchase now.

The presses, aimed at both commercial printers and business’ reprographic departments, can handle media up to 300gsm and A3 size, and automatically senses the paper type and weight before applying the correct print settings.

Both presses also have built-in finishing capabilities, able to produce 20-sheet booklets, staple bundles of 100 sheets, and can fold letters inwards. The machines print at 1200dpi.

Malcolm Smith, category manager of professional print at Konica Minolta Business Solutions, said: “We place great importance on empowering our customers in a partnership approach to grow their business with our solutions. 

“The Konica Minolta AccurioPrint 850i/950i Series represent an expansion of our professional print offering which is equally suitable for the reprographics departments within the public & private sector as well the commercial print customers.

“Simple operability and high-quality performance are preconditions to achieving maximum efficiency and completing work quickly and without fuss. The latest security technology and a host of finishing options will also add to the appeal of these advanced systems.”
