Kyocera TASKalfa 5054ci

About the Kyocera TASKalfa 5054ci

The Kyocera TASKalfa 5054ci sits in Kyocera's current business range and is built for departments with heavy day-to-day print volumes. It prints, copies, scans and faxes at speeds of up to 50 pages per minute, with a typical monthly page volume of 6,000 – 50,000 pages.

Speed and volume

Rated at up to 50 ppm, the TASKalfa 5054ci is designed to run comfortably at 6,000 to 50,000 pages a month. Automatic two-sided printing is standard, so duplex output costs no extra time or configuration, and the device handles stock up to A3. Kyocera does not publish a recommended monthly volume for this model — the band quoted here is our own sizing guidance from its rated speed and duty cycle.

Scanning and document handling

A dual-scan document processor captures both sides of a page in a single pass, so double-sided originals scan without re-loading the stack. Jobs are driven from the 25.6 cm colour touchscreen, keeping copy, scan-to-email and scan-to-folder workflows a couple of taps away, and OCR is included as standard so scanned documents come back searchable.

Connectivity and storage

Analogue fax is fitted as standard.

Finishing

Several finishing units are available, so stapling and higher-capacity output can be added when the workflow needs it rather than paid for up front.

Security and solutions

The TASKalfa 5054ci is solutions-enabled: HyPAS business applications run on the device itself, which is what makes secure print release, department accounting and scan workflows possible without a separate server for every job. That matters most where documents sit in an output tray in a shared area — held-and-released printing means a job only prints once the person who sent it is standing at the device.
