In today's complex business environment, it’s important to keep a

competitive edge. The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF color laser all-in-

the demands of a busy office.

Scan

Scan paper documents and photos (up to 8.5" x 14") in

beautifully detailed 24-bit color directly to email over the

network. Or use ScanSoft PaperPort®SE from Nuance®,

bundled with the magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF, to scan to

the PC via the USB interface. Scanned documents can be

annotated; saved in PDF, JPEG, TIFF, and other file formats for

FaxTalk Communicator from PaperPort SE.

Target Markets

A perfect fit for SOHO and SMB.

The versatile magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF color laser all-in-ones are

ideal for small and home offices, small- and medium-sized businesses,

and workgroups in larger organizations. They are amazingly cost-

effective, yet boast several essential business functions in one compact

and stylish unit.

If you’ve been faced with any of these problems, you’re sure to find the

magicolor 2480MF or 2490MF the solution you’ve been waiting for:

Too many office machines to maintain

A one-product solution for an organization’s essential business

functions means less time and money spent maintaining separate

machines.

Limited space

Satellite and home offices that have limited space but still require

the functionality of several office machines will discover that the

space-saving design of the magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF is

perfect for any workspace.

Lack of privacy

For executives and departments (such as Finance and Human

Resources) that require private document management, the

magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF are complete desktop solutions.

Expensive outsourced document production with long lead times

Businesses requiring professional, high-quality documents can

save money and time by using the magicolor 2480MF or 2490MF

as an integral part of the document production cycle—copy or

scan source materials, inspect photographs printed directly from

a digital camera, annotate and fax draft documents for review,

and print final documents in brilliant, attention-getting color.

Aging technologies

The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF color laser all-in-ones are

the ideal solution for businesses moving up from older

technologies—such as single-function devices, monochrome

laser AIOs, and color inkjet AIOs.

every office.

money and time because important document production can be kept in

design, the magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF make it easy to produce

professional laser-quality color prints, copies, scans, fax documents,

and photos that are sure to impress.

Print Quality

The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF deliver outstanding print quality for

any type of document. The following print resolutions are available:

2400 x 600 dpi

1200 x 600 dpi

600 x 600 dpi

Printing at 2400 dpi resolution produces crisp text, rich blacks, vibrant

Copy Quality

The following copy quality settings are available:

Photo, Text, Mix

Normal, Fine

Copy quality can be enhanced by specifying the type of document (text,

density. Copies can be resized easily by using the 50-200% zoom

function. All features are available through one-touch keys on the

control panel.

Scan Quality

Using the PaperPort SE software bundled with the magicolor 2480MF

and 2490MF, documents and photos can be scanned directly to PDF,

JPEG, TIFF, or another file format; annotated, edited, or converted to

editable text with the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) feature.

600 x 600 dpi

300 x 300 dpi

150 x 150 dpi

All copy

customization

one-touch keys on

the control panel.

Fax Quality (magicolor 2490MF only)

Super Fine (203 x 392 dpi) Best quality faxes

Fine (203 x 196 dpi) Good quality faxes, good

Fine (200 x 200 dpi) Best quality faxes

Standard (200 x 100 dpi) Fastest transmission times

Simitri Polymerized Toner

KONICA MINOLTA Simitri Polymerized Toner, composed of uniformly

sized toner particles, produces beautiful colors, clear text even in small

sizes, and smooth halftones—regardless of the print quality or media

type selected. Color remains consistent from print to print because each

batch of Simitri Polymerized Toner is tested for optimal color quality.

Simitri Polymerized Toner also features improved fusing, so output is

more durable and never smears or fades like inkjet prints. Plus, Simitri

Polymerized Toner has a life expectancy of over 100 years for output

that lasts for generations.

Multi-pass Color Laser Technology

The magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF feature KONICA MINOLTA multi-

pass color laser technology with improved printing precision. New

optical technology on the print head (first introduced on the magicolor

2400 Series printers) allows for a wider angle, which greatly reduces

the distance between the print head and the media. Decreasing this

distance reduces the overall size of the unit, making it more compact.

Compact Size

From an entirely practical standpoint, one of the beauties of the

magicolor 2480MF and 2490MF is their compact desktop size. Imagine

printing, copying, scanning, camera direct photo printing, and faxing—

without even getting up from the desk. Adding an optional duplexer

doesn’t affect the size of the device at all, and an optional 500-sheet

lower feeder increases the height by only 4.75".

The small footprint of the magicolor 2480MF

and 2490MF make them desktop friendly.
