Konica Minolta MagiColor 5430DL Review

by Paul Jasper

- Like many of the color laser models we've seen, the $999 Konica Minolta MagiColor 5430DL is bulky and cubical in shape. Unlike most of its competitors at this price, this model relies on your PC's CPU to render the pages.

User Reviews for Konica Minolta Magicolor 5430 DL Printer

Reviewed by: Andrew

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Fast 21 Pages per min, color and BW. I use it for power point presentations and it sure is good enough. Printing at 21 ppm makes a big differance than 3 ppm with an ink jet.

Weaknesses: the initial toner cartridges are only going to print about 2,500 sheets at less than 5% coverage

Overall Evaluation: toner is expensive if you buy the three pack it's about $400 and the black is about $100. If I get 6,000 pages claimed it will be better than the ink jet I'm using. Time will tell, I paid $499 for the unit at sams.
