The Kyocera ECOSYS MA3500cix (manufacturer's part number 1102YK3NL0) is an A4 color multifunction printer (MFP) with laser printing technology, designed for printing, scanning, and copying. It is suitable for small and medium-sized workgroups requiring a reliable, high-performance, and resource-efficient solution for daily office needs. The device offers a print speed of up to 35 pages per minute in both black and color, with a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI. Warm-up time is 26 seconds, and the first page is printed in 5.7 seconds (black) or 7 seconds (color). The maximum monthly duty cycle is 100,000 pages, with a recommended monthly usage between 1,000 and 3,500 pages per month.
Applications
This device is designed for office environments requiring a combination of printing, copying, and scanning functions. It is especially suitable for teams needing high print performance while maintaining cost-efficiency and environmental sustainability. The ECOSYS technology ensures low operating costs and reduced resource consumption, making its use in medium-sized workgroups or small businesses particularly economical.
Features and Specifications in Detail
The MA3500cix offers a wide range of features to support daily workflows. These include automatic two-sided printing (duplex) at a speed of 17.5 pages per minute in black and color, N-in-1 printing (2- and 4-up), watermark printing, toner and power save modes, and secure printing. The poster printing function allows document enlargement, and the copying function supports zooming between 25% and 400%. The maximum copy count is 999 copies, and an ID card copying function is integrated. The device features an automatic document feeder (ADF) with a capacity of 100 sheets, which can be used for duplex scanning and copying multi-page documents.
Technology Explained Simply
The printing technology is based on laser printing with four toner cartridges (black, cyan, magenta, yellow) for color printing. The maximum print resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI ensures sharp text and detailed graphics. Scanning is performed via a flatbed and ADF scanner with an optical resolution of 600 x 600 DPI. The scanning speed is 50 pages per minute in color and 60 pages per minute in black; in duplex mode, it reaches 100 (color) or 120 (black) pages per minute. Scans can be sent to email, FTP, file, SMB, TWAIN, USB, or WIA. Supported file formats include JPG, TIF, PDF, and XPS. Paper handling supports formats such as A4, A5, A6, B5, B6, Folio, Legal, and Letter, with a media weight of 60 to 220 g/m². The total paper capacity is 350 sheets (250 in tray 1 and 100 in the multipurpose tray), with an expandable maximum capacity up to 2000 sheets. The output capacity is 250 sheets.
Compatibility and Accessories
The device is compatible with the digital sender and the HyPAS platform, enabling integration into existing IT workflows. Replacement toner cartridges are the TK-5370 series. Print colors include black, cyan, magenta, and yellow. Supported page description languages include PCL 5c, PCL 6, PCL XL, PCLm, PDF, PostScript 3, and XPS. The device is designed for direct printing.
Installation and Setup
Setup is performed via the integrated control panel and network functions. The device is designed for use in an office network, with connectivity available via LAN or other network protocols. Paper feeding is handled through tray 1 (250 sheets) and the multipurpose tray (100 sheets), and the device is equipped with an automatic document feeder (ADF) for scanning and copying operations.
Operational Advantages
The MA3500cix offers high print performance combined with cost-efficiency. The ECOSYS technology reduces toner and energy consumption, lowering operating costs. The duplex function for printing, copying, and scanning reduces paper usage. Integrated security features such as secure printing enhance data protection. Support for various file formats and network protocols enables flexible use in different work environments.
