Muratec launches the MFX-C3400

Unique color multifunction solution produces full color 11" x 17" output within the footprint of a traditional letter/legal MFP

 

Plano, Texas (February 2, 2009) - Muratec America, Inc., manufacturer of multifunction office equipment and business productivity solutions, announces today the availability of the MFX-C3400, a unique multifunction solution that produces full color 11" * 17" output within the footprint of a traditional letter/legal MFP.

"We' re pleased to announce the availability of the MFX-C3400 which we believe compliments our dealer's current color offerings by providing a complete A3 color MFP solution, within the footprint of a traditional letter/legal device,” said Jim D' Emildio, President, Muratec America, Inc. "We believe our dealers should offer a diverse selection of color multifunction solutions in order to meet the ever-changing needs of their customers. While dealers will continue to focus on higher-segment color MFP's, the MFX-C3400 can fit a profitable niche within their current product line and add an additional revenue source in the current economic climate. "

The MFX-C3400 produces color output at up to 26 pages-per-minute and monochrome output at up to 34 pages-per-minute. It features a standard 50-sheet reversing automatic document feeder, A3-size platen glass and duplex printing to create a robust, not to mention cost-effective, document handling system.

The MFX-C3400 ships with a 300-sheet paper cassette that supports a variety of paper sizes (up to 47 lb.), as well as a 100-sheet multipurpose bypass tray that supports thicker paper stocks (up to 110 lb.), letterhead, transparencies, envelopes and various other media types. The bypass tray, which can produce postcards as small as 3" x 5" and banners up to 11..6" x 47.24", enables a host of user applications. The maximum paper capacity can be increased to 1,460-sheets.

Both PCL 5c and PostScript 3 support is standard and enables printing from a variety of Windows, Linux and Macintosh environments. The 40-GB hard drive increases printing performance by enabling encrypted, password-protected printing, job timeout and other advanced document security functions.

Additional benefits of the MFX-C3400 include:

"We believe the MFX-C3400 is the perfect color MFP solution for restaurants, real estate offices and creative departments that have the need to produce a wide variety of color documents, however do not have the floor space available for a traditional A3 color MFP," said D'Emidio. "The MFX-C3400 combines color copying, printing, scanning and faxing into a single, intuitive solution that can be easily installed into a small office or workspace."
