OKI Data Americas Receives Winter “Pick” Award for Outstanding Budget-Friendly Color Multifunction Printer for Large Workgroups from Buyers Laboratory
Mount Laurel, NJ (February 2, 2016) – OKI Data Americas announces receipt of a prestigious Winter “Pick” award in the color multifunction printer (MFP) category for large workgroups for its MC770+ Series from Buyers Laboratory LLC (BLI). After undergoing rigorous testing within BLI’s laboratories, the analyst group praised this series of OKI MFPs for image quality and a number of individual strengths, including: strong performance, robust feature sets, productivity, reliability, affordable price points and low total cost of ownership (TCO) as compared to competitive models.
The MC770+ Series of A4 color MFPs uses OKI’s latest open application programming interface to support the company’s expanding suite of print management, document capture and document management solutions. BLI applauded the devices’ exceptional value, reliability and ease of use, and highlighted their intuitive touchscreen control panel and simple routine maintenance procedures.
“In addition to its above average performance in several of our productivity tests, the MC770+ Series from OKI Data offers a lot of additional time-saving conveniences,” said Joe Ellerman, BLI lab manager. “These color MFPs include an embedded software platform which allows for integration with solutions, and the scan preview allows users to add or replace pages and zoom in on thumbnails. Plus, image quality is very good overall, so users can rest assured that output will be professional looking whether in print or copy mode.”
With wireless options plus competitive acquisition and running costs, this high-functioning series of color MFPs offers a low overall TCO, making them a sound business investment. OKI Data provides even greater value to the MC770+ Series with eligibility for the company’s industry-leading COREFIDO free five-year warranty upgrade1.
“OKI Data Americas is honored to receive a BLI Winter 2016 ‘Pick’ award in the Outstanding Budget-Friendly Color MFP for Large Workgroups category,” said Hiroyuki Fukushima, Vice President of Office Solutions Product Marketing for OKI Data Americas. “This award underscores OKI’s commitment to delivering reliable and cost effective document output and management solutions to streamline workflows, all at an exceptional value. For these reasons, the MC770+ Series color MFPs are an ideal choice for demanding print environments.”
