Muratec, the multifunction specialist company, has launched the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 multifunctionals offering the versatility of an all in one system with the flexibility of A3 output. Both multifunctionals have copy, print, scan and fax capability as standard. Print and copy speeds are 22 pages per minute for the MFX-2225 and 27ppm for the MFX-2725.
An RADF (recirculating automatic document feeder) allows the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 to perform fully automatic duplex (double sided) copying and scanning. The RADF can stack a maximum of 50 originals up to A3 size. Electronic sorting means copied documents are sorted in page order, eliminating the need to sort manually after copying.
As standard the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 have a USB 2.0 printer port allowing GDI computer printing or black and white scanning. Two network print options are also available, PCL or Muratec’s OfficeBridge. OfficeBridge allows the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 to operate as a powerful network solution for sharing documents between a workgroup of up to 50 users. OfficeBridge provides network print, network scan, scan to e-mail, Internet fax, desktop fax and workflow management functionality all in one simple to use application.
Because OfficeBridge uses a web browser interface, it is completely independent of computer operating systems and network protocols, making it easy and economical to install. The use of a familiar web browser interface also makes OfficeBridge intuitive and simple to understand so users can get the benefits of OfficeBridge straight away with the minimum of training.
To ensure users get the full benefits of the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 multifunction operation, the systems feature Voice Guidance for ease of use. Voice Guidance provides audible user prompts for multi step operations such as entering speed dials and clearing paper misfeeds. The MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 also have a large display panel allowing touch screen operation of some functions for easy operation and maximum productivity.
The standard memory of 64Mbyte (4,600 pages of text) can be used to store copy or fax jobs. Copy and print resolution is 600 by 600 dpi using LED print technology for high quality output. Maximum paper capacity is 2,100 sheets from up to four 500 sheet trays plus a 100 sheet multi-bypass tray.
For fax operation the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 have a 33.6k bps modem for a fast 2 second per page transmission speed for documents up to A3 size. ITU-T Super Group 3 standard is supported with JBIG compression.
In line with Muratec’s low operating cost policy the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 offer highly competitive Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over the operational life of the machines.
Commenting on the launch of the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725, Stewart Carroll, General Manager of Muratec Europe (UK) said, “The addition of the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 to the Muratec product line-up means we can now offer customers A3 output with automatic duplex copying and scanning with an RADF for fast job throughput. Our OfficeBridge option provides a low cost document management solution for workgroups with the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725. As usual Muratec’s low TCO policy means that the MFX-2225 and MFX-2725 will be attractive for applications where continuous commercial usage requires a rugged and cost-effective print solution.”
