5.0 out of 5 stars Great Printer - If you set it up right, May 4, 2006

This review is from: Konica Minolta Magicolor 2430DL Color Laser Printer (5250221-100) (Office Product)
I recently purchased this printer from another retailer after doing quite a bit of research into colors laser printers. I purchased this printer due to the reviews, and because it was network-ready.

After setting up the printer, I had a small problem. The first print after powering on the printer would smudge and the toner would smear. It was as if the fuser wasn't hot enough to set the toner to the paper. I tried several different paper types, but the first print would always come out with bad results. After the first print, it was better, but still not perfect.

Not satisfied with the results, I set out to find the cause. I found the answer in a review of a different Konica Minolta printer here on Amazon.

Read this carefully:
The printer ships with 2 green switches in the "envelope" position. Unless you flip these two switches to the "paper" position you will get smearing and smudges. It is not readily apparent from the...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely incredible!!! WOW!!! I cannot BELIEVE the high quality!!!, September 15, 2005
This review is from: Konica Minolta Magicolor 2430DL Color Laser Printer (5250221-100) (Office Product)
Okay...so I know I sound over ecstatic about this printer but, quite simply, that is because I really am!! For starters, I am a graphics professional and a REALLY finnicky, ultra picky person who also suffers from being too much of a perfectionist. Whenever I get something new that plays a somewhat critical part to what I do, I am EXTREMELY critical of it from the very beginning and look for the flaws from the word go. Once a few days/couple of weeks have passed and it has "passed" than I will keep it. The quality of the final output is very important to me, doing what I do. And I bet you are already asking yourself the question, "Well, if it is THAT critical, why not be prepared to spend a lot more if you really want quality so that you can get what you pay for? How can you expect such a low priced product to meet your high expectations?" Well, truth of the matter is that I am in the process of getting a house, so ANYTHING costs a LOT right now to me (money flies in all directions...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, August 9, 2005

This review is from: Konica Minolta Magicolor 2430DL Color Laser Printer (5250221-100) (Office Product)
Contrary to the impression given in one of the other reviews here, this printer is perfectly compatible with Linux and Macintosh as well as Windows. It may not be a PostScript printer, but there are drivers for Linux available from the Konica Minolta site. Yes, it would be nice if it had PostScript on board, but I'm happy enough to have the computer do the rasterizing via GhostScript. I plugged the printer in via Ethernet, installed the drivers, and the Mac found the printer via Bonjour.

As far as photographic quality goes, on glossy paper the images are better than the glossy magazines on my coffee table, and with a cost per page less than a tenth of that of an inkjet. It has become my primary printer. For the occasional true photographic print, there are always camera stores.

What could be better? Give it PostScript and a duplexer and I'd declare it perfect. (There's an optional duplexer, but it's really expensive.)
