Editor's Review
Konica Minolta MagiColor 2530dl by Rob Jara 09/16/2010 OVERVIEW:
The Konica Minolta MagiColor 2530dl is Konica Minolta's answer to low print cost needs without sacrificing production quality for offices and businesses that are also looking for affordable color printers. Konica Minolta MagiColor 2530dl also packs modest speeds for printing both color and monochrome prints, ideal for small workgroups that do not require high-volume production, but rather superb quality images, text and graphics for their office needs.
Editor's Pros & Cons
PROS: The MagiColor 2530dl's premium offering for printer users is its top quality resolution, with a maximum of 2400 dots per inch for both monochrome and color prints of text, graphics and images. Such a resolution for a color printer allows for crisp, deftly detailed prints that few others in the market can match. Printing speed for the MagiColor 2530dl is relatively competitive at 20 pages per minute (ppm) for monochrome and 5 ppm for color print outs. Its memory is also no pushover for a color printer, with a maximum memory capacity of 576MB that allows for increased productivity for the MagiColor 2530dl. Paper capacity is set at a maximum of 700 sheets, ensuring that the MagiColor 2530dl can handle up to midlevel volume production, which is quite ideal for offices and businesses that occasionally have such production demands.
CONS: Even though the MagiColor 2530dl might sound as a perfect addition for small workplaces for its compact design and top notch image quality prints, there are some aspects of its specification that might need some improvement. Its speed for producing color prints is quite low compared to other printers in the market. Now, while the MagiColor 2530dl understandably loses its speed by focusing more on the print quality, but a compromise between the two printing aspects might be worth more for its value. 5 pages per minute for color prints is quite slow for a color printer, as other color printers by other brands register at faster speeds while still keeping an excellent quality for image resolution.

INK/TONER NEEDS:
The MagiColor 2530dl uses special toner, the Simitri Polymerized Toner that allows it to produce such fine, detailed and vivid prints for text image and graphics in a wide variety of available media types. The MagiColor 2530dl is also capable of printing up to 35,000 pages per month, which is quite high for a printer that specializes on image quality. Standard ink toner cartridge is capable of producing 1,500 pages, while the high yield variety can provide as much as 4,500 pages on 5% coverage.
