Konica Minolta bizhub C360i

The Konica Minolta bizhub C360i is the upper-entry color A3 laser MFP in the i-Series, built for workgroups of 15-40 users and the most common color volume class. It prints and copies up to 36 ppm in both black and color (18 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 175,000-page monthly max duty cycle. Standard paper capacity is 1,150 sheets across two 500-sheet 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 runs the same Konica Minolta MarketPlace apps as every other i-Series. 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 for professional color matching. The C360i shares the chassis with the C250i (25 ppm) and C300i (30 ppm) — same body, faster print engine, slightly higher duty cycle. The thing buyers regret: skipping the dual-scan DF-714 ADF on the build sheet. For office-volume scanning, the optional dual-scan ADF is a near-mandatory line item.
