“I found it particularly easy to feed in originals for scanning and the

display is really easy to operate, even if you’ve limited use of your fingers.”

Bernd Worf, plumber

The results were overwhelmingly good.

The six testers gave a “very good” or

“good” rating to 97.6 % of the 84

machine features assessed in the tests

and 96.3% of the 27 features evaluated

in the interviews. The interviews revealed

a high degree of satisfaction with the

tested machine – “very easy to use” and

“the best machine ever seen” were just

two of the comments. The tiltable display

panel and magnification function met with

a very positive response and there was

praise for the fact that suggestions for

improvements made when the last Konica

Minolta machine was tested early in 2003

had been implemented in the Di2510. All

in all, a massive vote of confidence in the

machine’s ease of use by disabled

people.

Certified suitability

TÜV Product Service GmbH invited six wheelchair users from North Germany

to test the suitability for disabled people of the Konica Minolta Di2510

monochrome copier-printer (Di3010/ Di3510 & bizhub range similar in

construction).The extensive testing procedure involved a variety of tasks such

as copying (normal and duplex copying, sorting, magnifying and reduing),

creating a booklet, printing (normal, duplex and hole-punching), scanning

and refilling both paper and toner. The testers evaluated the ease with which

each of these 18 tasks could be carried out on a five-point scale between

“very good” and “poor”. Interviews were also conducted to discover their

subjective assessment of the machine’s suitability for disabled people.
