This device will be the first of its kind reviewed on this blog. You see, till now, we’ve been focusing on laser printers, whether single function or multifunction. In fact, we’ve been focusing on devices that fall on the functionality side of things wherein volume and cost effectiveness becomes important. To illustrate this point further is the fact that the last device we reviewed from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) was the Canon imageCLASS LBP6780X, a laser monochrome ... Keep Reading
Kyocera ECOSYS FS-C8525MFP Review: A Fast, Versatile, and Effective A3 Colour Laser MFP
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) have a tendency to release products in groups. When products are released as a part of a series, individual models tend to vary only slightly. The intention of OEMs is to allow the same market segment multiple options. This means that when you start considering a particular printer or any other IT equipment for that matter, you need to remember that there may be similar models you can consider also. This is relevant in this Kyocera ECOSYS FS-C8525MFP ... Keep Reading
Kyocera ECOSYS FS-6530MFP Review: A HyPAS Enabled Monochrome Multifunction Designed To Save Tonnes of Money
The last device we reviewed from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) was also an A3 printer – the Kyocera ECOSYS P4040DN. However, that printer was a single function printer as opposed to the device we’re reviewing today – the Kyocera ECOSYS FS-6530MFP.

OKI C810N Review: One of the Most Compact A3 Colour Printers in the Market
OKI C810N is an A3 colour laser printer, which makes it distinctly different from the last OKI device we reviewed. Our previous OKI review was for OKI MC780DFNFAX, which is a colour laser multifunction printer. Multifunction printers tend to incorporate as much functionality as possible so as to be adaptable and flexible. A3 printers, on the other hand, have to focus on their primary mandate i.e. A3 printing. This is why the OKI MC780DFNFAX and OKI C810N are so different. The OKI C810N, like ... Keep Reading
Kyocera ECOSYS P4040DN Review: A Very Cost Effective A3 Printer with Loads of Features
Only last month, we reviewed the Kyocera ECOSYS M2530DN, which is a multifunction printer. The printer we’re reviewing today, the Kyocera ECOSYS P4040DN, falls in a different market segment even though it is as expansive as the M2530DN when it comes to features. The Kyocera ECOSYS P4040DN, you see, is a single function printer while the Kyocera ECOSYS M2530DN is a multifunction printer. Despite the functionality differences, however, both devices are aimed at the Small to Medium Enterprises ... Keep Reading
OKI MC780DFNFAX Review: A High Capacity Multifunction Printer with All the Bells And Whistles
The last printer we reviewed from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) was also a heavy load multifunction device i.e. the OKI MB562DNW. That device, in fact, had more production capacity than the one we’re about to review in this post. Even so, the device we’re reviewing here is very accomplished on its own. The OKI MC780DFNFAX is an A4 colour laser printer that is intended for large and busy workgroups. It is a high performance, high capacity full LED multifunction printer that is based ... Keep Reading
Samsung M3870FW Review: Good Speed and Good Scalability at Acceptable Costs
If you're thinking that we’ve already reviewed this printer from Samsung before, then you’re mistaken. What this tells us, though, is that you’ve been reading our blog for a while now because you're most probably confusing this device with one that we reviewed earlier – the Samsung M3820DW. While the similarity in models may confuse you, the Samsung M3870FW is different in core functionalities from the M3820DW. You see, the Samsung M3870FW is a monochrome laser multifunction printer while the ... Keep Reading
OKI MB562DNW Review: A Heavy Workload Focused Device That May Be a Bit Too Expensive
The last printing device that we reviewed from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) was the OKI B512DN. Just shy of one year ago, we reviewed the OKI MC562DNW, which was a colour laser multifunction printer. The device we’re reviewing today is the OKI MB562DNW, which is a monochrome laser multifunction primer. The reason why their model names are so similar is that they use virtually the same printing engines. The surrounding elements are different in both models, though which means that ... Keep Reading
Kyocera ECOSYS M2530DN Review: Low Cost, Feature Rich Kyocera Device Meant For SMEs
The last two devices we’ve reviewed from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) have been good devices exemplified by the famed Kyocera reliability and build quality. However, the device we’re reviewing today – the Kyocera ECOSYS M2530DN – not only has the qualities of those devices but actually, exceeds them in various ways. The devices reviewed earlier i.e. the Kyocera FS-1061DN and the Kyocera ECOSYS FS-C8520MFP, both were meant for Small to Medium scale Enterprises (SMEs). The Kyocera ... Keep Reading
Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M225DW Review: Duplex Laser MFP with Multiple Connectivity Options
The last device we reviewed on Office Hacks from this Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) was the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint P265DW. Today’s device, the Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M225DW, is fairly similar to that device. In fact, they fall in the same series of printers from Fuji Xerox. For example, many features of these printers are similar and their engines same since both of them are aimed at the Small Office / Home Office (SOHO) segment. The difference is that Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M225DW has a ... Keep Reading
