A department needs its document hub to do three things quickly, print, copy and scan, and this machine does all three at office speed without the expense of fax hardware nobody uses. Forty-two pages per minute of 1200 x 1200 dpi monochrome laser output clears busy queues, automatic two-sided printing trims the paper budget, and a large 4.7-inch touchscreen puts every function a swipe away, walk-up or from a desk. The automatic document feeder turns multipage stacks into digital files at scan speed, making this the pragmatic hub for offices that live in paperwork but have moved their filing to the cloud.
