02

Colour Scanning

Despite being a monochrome MFP, the
bizhub 423 series offers colour scanning,
letting you share and save documents in
their original state.

Simitri HD Toner with Biomass

Konica Minolta’s exclusive polymerised toner with
plant-based ingredients (biomass) offers high image quality
and less environmental impact.

High-quality Monochrome
Output

Colour originals are output in high-quality
monochrome without shifts in gradation. This
is especially apparent during printing, as
screens optimised for the characteristics of
the engine’s properties improve gradations
and reduce graininess.

Image Processing Engine

A new ASIC image processing engine ensures
high-quality monochrome prints.

Integration with Colour MFPs

New firmware enables full feature integration with
colour devices.

OpenAPI

Konica Minolta’s proprietary API system that enables
customised workflows.

Innovative Technology

Don’t let the monochrome output fool you – the bizhub 423 series offers many of the
same features as colour MFPs, while keeping running costs manageable.

Digitise colour documents

Colour original

Unified firmware

Biometric and non-contact IC card authorisation ensure stress-free authorisation, while a
number of copy, print and fax output control functions help limit paper and energy use.
Furthermore, the 423 series uses the same firmware as colour models, enabling universal
management for all MFPs on your network.
