Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Konica Minolta bizhub 450i is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a department of 20-60 people that needs A3 (11x17) mono output for the workgroup.
  • You print 6,000-15,000 mono pages a month and want headroom — this is rated for 200,000.
  • You scan stacks of mixed-size originals and want single-pass dual-scan at 280 ipm in duplex.
  • You already run a Konica Minolta fleet on bizhub SECURE / Net Care Device Manager and want one more drop-in.
  • You want a 10.1-inch tilt touchscreen that operators can customize with apps from the Konica Minolta MarketPlace.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 4,000-6,000 mono pages a month — overbuilt for the volume, but the lease amortizes longer.
  • You need Wi-Fi — it's an optional UK-221 module, not standard, and your reseller will quote it on the build sheet.
  • You need stapling/punching/booklet finishing — the FS-533 inner finisher or FS-540SD booklet finisher bolts on, but the finisher footprint is bigger than the base unit.
  • You're replacing an older bizhub 458 or 558 — operator workflow muscle memory transfers cleanly to the i-Series UI in about a week.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 2,000 pages a month — this is an A3 floor-standing MFP rated for 200K. Get a desktop A4 unit (4750i or 5020i) instead.
  • You need color. This is mono only — go to the C450i for a 45-ppm color sibling on the same chassis.
  • You need Wi-Fi out of the box — wireless is optional on this model.
  • You want a small footprint — the base alone is 24.2 x 27.1 x 37.8 inches and weighs 220 lb on a floor stand.
  • You print mostly 11x17 — A3 speed drops to 22 ppm (vs 45 ppm at letter). The 550i or 650i hold their A3 speed better.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Konica Minolta bizhub 450i is a floor-standing A3 mono laser MFP for departments of 20-60 users that need workgroup tabloid output, heavy scanning, and Konica Minolta's i-Series UI. It prints and copies up to 45 ppm at letter (22 ppm at 11x17), scans at 140 ipm simplex / 280 ipm duplex via the standard 300-sheet single-pass dual-scan ADF, and is rated for a 200,000-page monthly max duty cycle (Konica Minolta recommends staying around 40,000 pages/month for sane consumable economics). Standard paper capacity is 1,150 sheets across two trays plus a 150-sheet bypass, expandable to 6,650 sheets with the LU-302 or LU-207 high-capacity unit. The 10.1-inch tilt touchscreen with smartphone-style UI is the headline feature — operators pick it up fast and you can customize the home screen with widgets and Konica Minolta MarketPlace apps. Standard connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet plus USB 2.0; Wi-Fi (UK-221) and the Super G3 fax (FK-514) are optional add-ons your reseller will quote separately. The thing buyers regret: paying for the floor-standing A3 chassis when 90% of their print is letter-size. If you rarely touch 11x17, the desktop 4750i or 5020i costs less and uses less floor space.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 4 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging Konica Minolta machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "We upgraded to the bizhub 450i for our mid-sized office and it's handled our volume without breaking a sweat. The finishing options are solid and the touchscreen interface took about a day to get used to, but now it's faster than our old machine. Print quality on the color side is sharp enough for client materials."
  • "The 450i is reliable and the scanning to email feature saves us a lot of time in our billing department. My only complaint is the learning curve on some of the more advanced settings, but the sales rep walked us through it. For the price point it's a good machine."
  • "Purchased this for our design studio and the color output is consistent. Fast enough for our needs and the mobile printing integration actually works without too much fuss."
  • "It's a reliable machine but toner costs add up. Good for a mid-sized office if you're prepared for the consumable expenses. Print quality is fine, nothing special but does the job."

FAQ

Konica Minolta bizhub 450i, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (616) 800-7682 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Konica Minolta bizhub 450i ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter toner typically yields around 24,000 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement toner, such as the high-yield TN628 (AC79030), provides approximately 24,000 to 58,000 pages. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Konica Minolta bizhub 450i is designed for larger workgroups of 20-60 users, offering faster print speeds of 45 ppm (vs. 30 ppm for the 300i) and a higher monthly duty cycle of 200,000 pages (vs. 150,000 for the 300i). The 450i also features a 300-sheet ADF with faster scanning speeds (280 ipm duplex vs. 200 ipm for the 300i). Both models have a 10.1-inch touchscreen, but the 450i is better suited for higher-volume environments. For small offices with lower print volumes, the bizhub 300i may be a more cost-effective choice.
The Konica Minolta bizhub 450i is ideal for departments of 20-60 users with high print volumes, offering speeds of 45 ppm and a monthly duty cycle of 200,000 pages. However, for small businesses with lower print volumes (under 40,000 pages/month), this model may be overkill.
No, the Konica Minolta bizhub 450i is a monochrome printer and only prints in black and white. For color printing, consider alternatives like the Konica Minolta bizhub C450i, C300i, or C360i.
