January 4, 2006 - Mobile, AL – Today KONICA MINOLTA PRINTING SOLUTIONS U.S.A., INC. introduced the PagePro 1390 MF, an affordable monochrome laser all-in-one that combines print, copy, scan, and fax functions into one streamlined unit. Priced at just $349 (est. street), this black and white personal laser productivity center provides individuals and small businesses with the essential office tools and cost effectiveness they need to simplify their daily business tasks.

Save Time, Space, and Money
Equipped with 48 MB of RAM, this powerful, compact multitasker prints a speedy 21 ppm with crisp, laser-quality 1200 dpi, and copies at a rate of 20 cpm. The PagePro 1390 MF weighs just 36 lbs pounds and takes up less desktop space than an average computer monitor. Save space and money by purchasing supplies for only one office machine.

“The PagePro 1390 MF was developed with SOHO space and budget constraints in mind,” stated Steve Fletcher, president and COO of KONICA MINOLTA PRINTING SOLUTIONS U.S.A., INC. “This laser all-in-one packs the features and functions of multiple office machines into one space-saving unit, at a price that’s much more affordable than purchasing and maintaining separate machines. And since it’s laser-driven, customers can expect excellent print quality, high performance, and durability.”

Easy to Set Up, Easy to Use
Pre-installed supplies, auto-run installation software, and front-access supply replacement make the PagePro 1390 MF easy to set up and use. The intuitive one-touch operation panel puts functionality right at the fingertips, making even complex documents practically effortless to produce. Use ScanSoft PaperPort® SE from Nuance to scan documents in 24-bit color, then annotate or edit the images; save them in PDF, JPEG, or TIFF format; or convert them to editable text using the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) feature. The 50-page automatic document feeder handles multi-page documents for time-saving, unattended copying and scanning.

Turn any Desktop into a Printshop
The flexible media handling capabilities of the PagePro 1390 MF turn any desktop into a virtual “printshop.” With the 250-sheet multipurpose tray, customers can print and copy on a wide variety of media sizes, from postcard (3.9" x 5.8") up to legal (8.5" x 14"). In addition, this all-in-one handles common types of office media, including plain paper, thick stock transparencies, labels, and envelopes, to conveniently produce reports, brochures, and other important business and personal documents. The stand-alone fax functionality makes sharing information and proofing documents a snap.

Added Fletcher, “SOHO businesses must be agile, professional, and efficient to stay competitive. By combining four essential functions into one versatile document center, our PagePro 1390 MF all-in-one provides these customers with an indispensable tool for maximizing their productivity.”

For businesses that do not require fax functionality the PagePro 1380 MF laser all-in-one is also available. It prints 21 ppm, copies at a rate of 20 cpm, and scans in both color and black & white. An optional automatic document feeder is available.
The PagePro 1380 MF and PagePro 1390 MF each have a one-year exchange warranty and are backed by five years of free, U.S.-based technical support for added reliability. They are available through KONICA MINOLTA’s network of authorized distributors, dealers, and e-commerce partners. To find the location nearest you, call 800-523-2696 or visit www.buypagepro.com.
