New MFP from Muratec
March 9, 2007
Muratec America announced the availability of the new MFX-3050, a network-ready multifunction device that offers powerful laser printing, duplex copying, color scanning and high-speed faxing.
With built-in Windows, Macintosh and Linux compatibility and 10/100 BaseT Ethernet connection, the MFX-3050 can be easily integrated into a variety of customer networks, delivering exceptional print, fax and scan functionality. Non-networked users can connect to the MFX-3050 by utilizing the standard high-speed USB 2.0 or IEEE-1284 parallel ports.
“The MFX-3050 is a strategic product for Muratec as it allows us to address the printing needs of customers in non-Windows environments,” says Jim D’Emidio, vice-president of sales & marketing, Muratec America, Inc. “By combining a robust print engine with broad PDL support we expect to fully meet the diverse printing needs of our customers.”
In addition to powerful printing capabilities the 30 page-per-minute MFX-3050 features a standard 50-sheet automatic document feeder, letter-size platen glass and 33.6 Kbps fax modem that combine to create a robust, not to mention cost-effective, workgroup solution.
Unique to the MFX-3050 is a front-mounted direct USB connection that enables users to print documents directly from a standard USB flash drive. Users may also scan documents from the automatic document feeder or platen glass directly onto the flash drive as TIFF, PDF or JPEG images.
The unit ships with a standard 250-sheet paper cassette and 50-sheet multipurpose bypass tray, which can be used to print letterhead, envelopes and labels. An optional 250-sheet paper cassette can be installed, bringing the total paper capacity to 550 sheets.
The MFX-3050 has an MSRP of $1695. The mono-component consumable cartridge is rated at 8,000 @ 5% page coverage and is designed for quick and easy user replacement.
