The Kyocera 2535 multifunction device combines a conventional printer, a duplicator, and even a scanner. The only function that this machine is unable to perform is receiving and sending faxes. It is about the capabilities of this peripheral system that will be discussed in this review.
Where is better to apply? Pick list
The main area in which such an MFP is most often used is the office. In this case, laser technology is used to display documentation. Its advantages include speed, increased limit and efficiency from the position of consumables. But the only drawback in comparison with inkjet printing systems is the lower quality. Also, energy consumption when using the laser method increases significantly.
Therefore, the list of applications of this MFP also includes copy centers, home workflow subsystems, libraries and banking institutions. In general, where you need speed and an increased output resource for a month, but quality fades into the background and is not so critical
The delivery list for this peripheral assembly includes the following components:
- Kyocera 2535.
- User's manual.
- Power cable for the implementation of the printing system.
- Disk with software, a set of drivers and multilingual documentation in electronic version.
- Interface wire.
- Cartridge.
- Coupon with full warranty statement.
The main characteristics of the workflow system
The main page format for the Kyocera 2535 is A4. In printer mode, this solution produces 35 pages. The same number is true for the copy machine. The resolution of the displayed pages is 1200x1200. The drum warm-up time of this MFP is 20 seconds.
The density of the carrier is limited to 60 g / m 2 and 220 g / m 2 . That is, the peripheral system in question can print both on plain paper, and on whatman paper, or even on photo paper. In standby mode, this MFP consumes 3.7 watts, and when printing this value increases to 439 watts. The minimum level of this document management system is 28 dB, and the highest is 52 dB.
The number of Kyocera 2535 connection interfaces includes two wired ports: USB and RJ-45. In the first case, only the controlling electronic computer system can use the full capabilities of the MFP. But when using the second method of connecting to the considered solution, any element of the computer network can gain access, but in this case, you need to set the appropriate parameters correctly. If this is not done, then the MFP will turn into a regular duplicating apparatus. But the functions of the printer and scanner will not function.
Order of setting. Key Features
Now you need to figure out how to configure the Kyocera 2535 scanner. The algorithm in this case includes the following key steps:
- We get this peripheral solution from the transport, cardboard box. It is also necessary to remove the remaining delivery elements from it.
- We install external trays and a cartridge in the device.
- We connect the interface cord to the control system unit of the personal computer, and the power cable to the power supply network.
- On the included PC, install all the necessary programs and drivers.
- Place one sheet in the page feed tray. We print test information to check the operability of the document management system under consideration.
Possible problems. Their elimination
One of the main diagnostic messages that appears during the operation of Kyocera 2535: “Replace MK”. It appears when a certain number of pages have been issued and, as conceived by the manufacturer, the MFP issuing system has developed a resource. But this is not always true. To restart the system, you need to do the following:
- To enter the service menu you need to dial a special security code: 10871087.
- Then select item u251.
- Then we find the clear item in it. We initialize it.
- At the end, you need to exit the service menu. To do this, run the subroutine u001.
Another possible problem associated with this device is the lack of software in the initial delivery, which controls the scanner. At the same time, the tools integrated into Windows are not able to work directly with such a solution. Therefore, you must additionally install special programs, for example, FineReader.
Reviews Cost
Certain deficiencies were identified by the owners during the operation of the Kyocera 2535. Scanning via USB requires only the installation of additional special programs. The same condition applies when using the RJ-45 port. But in this case, you also need to set the parameters of the network environment. Also, the disadvantages include the significantly complicated configuration algorithm. These are the main disadvantages of this solution.
The pluses of this MFP include speed, cost-effectiveness, noiselessness, advanced communications and low cost. You can buy a similar solution for 23 000-25 000 rubles.
Conclusion
The most common Kyocera 2535 can be found in offices. Moreover, both at the initial level, and in the middle. It is in this case that its use is justified both in terms of technical specifications and cost. But also this document management system can be quite successfully used in a copy center, for example. But at home, using such an expensive multifunctional device is not economically feasible. In this case, it is better to pay attention to the more affordable MFPs with inkjet output technology and integrated CISS. They have a much lower price, and print quality will be better. But the speed is lower.
