About the Konica Minolta bizhub 301i
The Konica Minolta bizhub 301i sits in Konica Minolta's current business range and is built for departments with heavy day-to-day print volumes. It prints, copies, scans and faxes at speeds of up to 30 pages per minute, with a typical monthly page volume of 3,000 – 25,000 pages.
Speed and volume
Rated at up to 30 ppm, the bizhub 301i is designed to run comfortably at 3,000 to 25,000 pages a month. Automatic two-sided printing is standard, so duplex output costs no extra time or configuration, and the device handles stock up to A3. Konica Minolta does not publish a recommended monthly volume for this model — the band quoted here is our own sizing guidance from its rated speed and duty cycle.
Paper handling
It ships with 500 sheets of standard input. More input means fewer interruptions to reload — the practical difference between a device someone tops up twice a day and one that runs a week untouched.
Scanning and document handling
A single-pass dual-scan ADF captures both sides of a page in a single pass, so double-sided originals scan without re-loading the stack. Jobs are driven from the 25.6 cm colour touchscreen, keeping copy, scan-to-email and scan-to-folder workflows a couple of taps away, and OCR is included as standard so scanned documents come back searchable.
Connectivity and storage
Analogue fax is fitted as standard; 256 GB SSD standard; it carries 8,192 MB of memory on a quad-core processor.
Finishing
Several finishing units are available, so stapling and higher-capacity output can be added when the workflow needs it rather than paid for up front.
Security and solutions
The bizhub 301i is solutions-enabled: bizhub MarketPlace applications run on the device itself, which is what makes secure print release, department accounting and scan workflows possible without a separate server for every job. That matters most where documents sit in an output tray in a shared area — held-and-released printing means a job only prints once the person who sent it is standing at the device.
