Manual of product TASKalfa 266ci
Editorial note
The Kyocera TASKalfa 266ci is a desktop printer that stands out for its impressive performance. With a printing speed of 26 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 9600 x 600 DPI, it is ideal for demanding work environments. Its paper capacity of 1300 sheets allows for handling large print volumes without interruption, which is a major asset for professionals. However, some drawbacks must be taken into account. The duplex printing mode is manual, which may be perceived as less convenient and slower compared to models offering automatic duplex functionality. Additionally, the lack of duplex scanning limits efficiency when processing double-sided documents, while its heavy weight of 38.7 kg can make it difficult to move in tight spaces. Finally, the cost of the four print cartridges can quickly add up, increasing long-term operating expenses. In terms of user experience, the product receives a score of 78, reflecting overall satisfaction despite some practical limitations. Performance is highly rated with a score of 85, while the modern and sleek design is given a score of 75. However, the weight can pose mobility issues. The value for money is rated at 70 due to the potential costs of the cartridges, and the features, while solid, are rated at 80 due to the absence of certain practical options. In summary, the Kyocera TASKalfa 266ci is a high-performing and efficient printer for professionals, but it has drawbacks that could influence users' choices based on their specific needs.Score details
