When printing postcards, simply copying, fast and efficient scanning, and printing staple-less booklets and folders. The Konica Minolta bizhub does a great job with any task handed to it, efficiently and quickly.

If you are using it for large-scale printing such as printing plans as we do, this is a great machine to have in your arsenal. Sure, the size can make it somewhat cumbersome, however it is definitely worth it to have in your office. It allows you to print full-size as well as scaled sheets at a myriad of sizes. It also allows you to scan and download edited drawings which is also a major plus.

• I do not like the beeping sounds made by the printer when a job is done or haunted. Ours is on mute. A new sound effect would be nicer and not so stressful.
• The velcro strips in the trays are poor quality and can cause the paper to not be fed into the machine.
• The bypass tray secondary tray that folds out to catch the paper isn't the greatest quality and feels as if it will break or rip off when opening. To close, you do have to slam it.

• Size.
• Runs out of paper quickly.
• Sometimes runs out of ink quickly as well.

We use a third party to service our machine so service-wise, it is hard to say. Support-wise, we have plenty of paper stocked and toner on hand should we run out. In my 4 plus years here at the office, we have had maybe one or two times where the machine was down for a day at maximum and then was back in working order immediately.

We also use this machine in our office in conjunction with the Teriostar. In comparing the two, the Teriostar is much more versatile. The quality of printing (and ability to print in color) is a big plus for the DesignJet, however, we can do so much more with the Teriostar. In looking at size, they are both comparable in that category.
