Konica Minolta Bizhub C654e

Konica Minolta Bizhub C654e overview

The Konica Minolta bizhub C654e is an A3 colour multifunction copier with separate colour and monochrome speed ratings. It produces up to 60 A4 pages per minute in colour and up to 65 in black and white. Konica Minolta presents it as a shared office system for printing, copying and high-speed document scanning.

Colour and document capture

The standard dual-scan document feeder is rated for up to 180 originals per minute. It reads both sides of suitable originals in a single pass, supporting colour and black-and-white document workflows. The nine-inch colour touch display provides an INFO-Palette interface with familiar gestures such as drag-and-drop and pinch-to-zoom. These controls help users reach the device’s copy, print and scan functions.

Print system

An integrated Emperon controller handles network printing, and the manufacturer lists a standard 250 GB hard disk. The machine uses Simitri HD toner for colour imaging. The manufacturer’s separate speed figures are important: 60 ppm applies to colour output, while 65 ppm applies to monochrome output. The A3 format accommodates larger office documents than an A4-only printer.

Paper and finishing

Konica Minolta offers large-capacity paper units of 2,500 or 3,000 sheets for installations with higher input needs. Available finishing accessories include stapling, hole punching, folding and booklet production; these should be selected for the document workflow required. A compatible Fiery image controller is also listed as an optional colour-management accessory for graphics-heavy print work.

Fax and access

Super G3 fax requires an optional fax kit; the standard device should not be assumed to have analogue fax hardware. Compatible card readers are available for device access, and the Konica Minolta Marketplace offers downloadable applications for supported workflows. The options named here are manufacturer accessories and depend on the configuration of the machine supplied.
