e-STUDIO2518A
Why Choose Toshiba?
Here are four areas where Toshiba copiers and printers shine:
#1 Innovation
The company has won numerous awards for its product innovations. In 2017, it announced the world’s first copier/MFP capable of printing both black and erasable blueprints.
The erasable toner allows people to reuse paper multiple times, which saves money on paper and toner and generates less waste. The black toner supports traditional printing for documents that need to be printed and saved.
The erasable print feature is available on the e-STUDIO3508LP MFP, which received a 2019 top innovation award from Keypoint Intelligence, a leading document industry sources for information and test data.
Toshiba also recently won Better Buys’ 2019 Innovative Product of the Year award for its latest line of MFPs, the e-STUDIO 5015AC series. The five devices in the series outperformed other high-volume, colour MFPS in testing and were praised for their innovative features like the Elevate™ customization platform, which allows businesses to tailor the devices to their unique workflows.
#2 Customization
As we mentioned earlier, the award-winning Elevate user interface (UI) simplifies and automates common business processes, allowing organizations to fully customize their MFPs to the tasks they do most frequently.
The large touch screen provides a selection of pre-built buttons linked to everyday tasks and the devices also come with customizable UI templates with pre-programmed shortcuts. The customization platform can help companies streamline document workflow and boost their efficiency and productivity.
#3 Ease-of-use
The Elevate platform doesn’t just make printing more efficient; it also makes it easier. Companies can take complicated tasks and simplify them so they can be performed with a simple touch of a button.
It means employees can quickly learn how to perform functions and use features with minimal effort. And because the user interface is so easy, people are less likely to make mistakes that will cause the devices to break down.
The platform also helps increase document security by simplifying the process of protecting printed and scanned documents.
#4 Sustainability
Toshiba promotes itself as an environmentally friendly company with a commitment to producing sustainable products and reducing harmful substances in their manufacturing processes. It also chooses suppliers that share the company’s environmental focus.
Toshiba of Canada has set a goal of achieving a 92 percent waste diversion rate at all 14 of its Canadian facilities. And each of those facilities has received the internationally recognized
ISO 14001 Environmental Management System Certification.
What People Say About Toshiba Copiers and Printers
In this head-to-head comparison of Canon and Toshiba printers, the reviewers praised Toshiba’s reliability. The reviewer concluded, “Toshiba models are more resilient and less likely to break down.”
As well, when the respected industry analyst organization Keypoint Intelligence named the e-STUDIO4518A best mid-range monochrome MFP, the reviewers noted the device’s reliability, performance and scan speeds that were among the fastest in its class.
But there are a few downsides. In its review of the Best Small Business Copiers of 2019, business.com wasn’t impressed with the Toshiba model’s “average resolution and small tray options,” which it said didn’t measure up to the best colour copiers in its class.
And, in a review of the e-STUDIO 3515AC, the high price tag was considered a drawback given the device didn’t come with a document feeder, which is standard with most other brands.
Instead, it was available as an additional accessory, which reviewers said added to the already high cost and may make the printer too expensive for many small businesses.
The Verdict
As you can see, while there are few negative comments about Toshiba printers, most industry analysts and expert reviewers have positive things to say about the products.
If you’re looking for a reliable printer with innovative features and excellent performance, Toshiba copiers and printers are worth a look. If you are looking for the lowest cost device, you may want to consider other options.
