THE DEVICE THAT HAS IT ALL

With a clear, logical interface and flexible customisation options that adapt to your needs, the
updated i-Series range delivers an intuitive user experience that helps boosting productivity.

Flexible customisation
ɢ The new i-Series offers an intuitive smartphone-style experience that’s so familiar, there’s practically no
learning curve. Users can customise their screens in the same way as their mobile devices, and put the
apps they use regularly on the home screen for quick access.
ɢ In the Quick Copy screen, users can see all the main setting options without scrolling or searching. They
can apply their desired settings with fewer clicks and pop-ups, helping them to work more efficiently
and be more productive.
ɢ Users can customise their personal home screens by adding or removing function icons, and
group apps in the way that works for them. A user can, for example, group all scan-related apps or
all ID-related (ID copy and ID scan) apps.
ɢ Widgets – similar to the Widgets on Android phones – are also supported, enabling users to embed
app-delivered functionality on their home screens.

Cloud ready
ɢ Directly from the user panel, you can set up seamless integrations with popular external cloud
apps – such as SharePoint Online, OneDrive, OneDrive for Business, MS Teams, Google Drive,
Dropbox and Box.com – to meet your needs and maximise your productivity.

Enhanced accessibility and usability

ɢ Our devices are designed with high usability in mind. We follow industry-leading universal design
guidelines to make them accessible to anyone regardless of age, experience, body size or special needs.
ɢ We use colour and colour-coding to make things easy to use and keep users safe. Paper trays and
toner cartridges are easily accessible for refilling, and the automatic document feeder can be lifted
with little physical effort and silently closed thanks to hinges with soft-close.
ɢ With a 24° to 90° tilt angle, the large 10.1“ tablet touch panel provides convenient operation for all
users, whether standing or sitting.

We've made substantial investments to keep the environmental

impact of the bizhub i-Series as low as possible.

Minimised power consumption

With system settings like low power mode, sleep mode, power-saving fax/scan mode, and
further functions like timer and calendar, dynamic eco timer, eco print and eco info, you can
significantly reduce the power consumption of your bizhub devices.

Recycling technology to upgrade material properties

Konica Minolta has developed a recycling technology that can upgrade material properties,
enhance the strength and flame retardancy of waste plastics, based on a polymer alloy
technology accumulated through the development of toner. This technology allows recycled
plastics to be used for parts covering 88% of the entire surface area of the MFPs.

Simitri® V toner
With the polymerised Simitri® V toner used in the bizhub i-Series, we‘ve reduced the fixing
temperature by about 15°C compared to previous models. Combined with a new fixing
device, this helps to significantly reduce the TEC Value*.

Improved product design

Our devices are designed to be smaller and lighter, saving both raw and packaging materials,
as well as greenhouse gas emissions during transport.

Improved packaging
We developed lighter, more compact air cushions that have reduced the device packaging
volume by 84% and the packaging weight by 70% compared to conventional polystyrene
foam cushioning materials.

Less noise for a more comfortable working environment

We’ve taken steps to to reduce the noise level during operation, which makes working near
our devices even more comfortable.

LED as the scanner light source

We’ve changed the light source for the scanners in our devices from conventional fluorescent
lighting to LED. This delivers power savings and a low heat performance while increasing
brightness intensity and scanning speed.

* The TEC value represents an electrical product’s typical weekly electricity consumption (TEC) based on average office use,
as defined by the US ENERGY STAR program.
 SECURE+
SIMPLE
The new bizhub i-Series doesn’t compromise on anything. When it comes
to security and ease of use, our devices deliver the best of both worlds.
