Konica Minolta Magicolor 1690MF review

 

The beige and dark gray Konica Minolta Magicolor 1690MF has a 50-sheet automatic document feeder, making it easy to copy or fax multipage documents. The 100-sheet input tray for the printer may be adequate for small or home offices, but if you plan to...

The Konica Minolta Magicolor 1690MF is a capable colour laser multifunction device. With very good printed output, handy features like the automatic document feeder and built-in fax machine, and 10/100BaseT Ethernet networking, the 1690MF is a good fit...

Konica Minolta - 1690MF

 

Colour laser printers are far more affordable than they used to be and are now a valid solution for home users and small businesses as a speedy alternative to the inkjet. Konica Minolta has an impressive ...

Our issues with the Konica Minolta 1690MF, such as the relatively poor quality display and fiddly fine-tuning, are offset by impressive performance and the flexibility on offer from the headline scanning, copying and printing capabilities. Though it's...

Konica Minolta magicolor 1690MF

 

The Konica Minolta magicolor 1690MF resets the entry-level price for color laser all-in-ones to a new low.

Low initial cost. Prints, scans, and faxes over network. Standalone fax and copier.

Relatively high cost per page. Difficult setup.

Good in many areas, poor in others

 

This really should be such a great device, the spec is good, the price is right and Konica Minolta has a great pedigree. Sadly, the printer has not come up to expectation, despite being advertised as Mac compatible, this only seems to refer to the...

Minolta Magicolor 1690MF

 

Nice printer and scanner. The toner cartridges are very easy to change. The onscreen scanning setup is good. Not such a good fax - there is no progress monitor on the PC to tell you how it is going and no fax log on the PC. Not as good as the HP...
