Konica Minolta bizhub C250i

The Konica Minolta bizhub C250i is the entry color A3 laser MFP in the i-Series, built for small workgroups of 5-25 users. It prints and copies up to 25 ppm in both black and color (15 ppm at 11x17), scans at 100 ipm simplex / 200 ipm duplex via the optional 100-sheet dual-scan DF-714 ADF, and is rated for a 130,000-page monthly max duty cycle (Konica Minolta recommends staying around 16,000 pages/month for sane consumable economics). Standard paper capacity is 1,150 sheets across two 500-sheet trays plus a 150-sheet bypass, expandable to 6,650 sheets. The 10.1-inch tilt touchscreen with smartphone-style UI is the same panel as every other i-Series, so you get bizhub SECURE, MarketPlace apps, and Personalize on the entry color body. Standard connectivity is Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0; Wi-Fi (UK-221) and Super G3 fax (FK-514) are optional. The Fiery IC-420 controller is available if you need professional color matching. The thing buyers regret: ordering without the dual-scan DF-714 ADF and discovering the standard build is flatbed only — for office work that's a deal-breaker, so spec the ADF on the build sheet up front.
