OKI Data Americas, which markets its products under the OKI Printing Solutions brand, today announced the launch of the MC560 Letter/A4 color multifunction product (MFP). Offering the best possible value in the Letter/A4 color MFP segment with faster monochrome printing speeds1, better color output quality2 in brilliant HD (high-definition) Color and a lower total cost of ownership than all competitors' models in its class, the MC560 MFP also features a compact design that will appeal to small-medium workgroups. Serving as a replacement to the current C5550n MFP, the MC560 MFP allows customers to save money and valuable office space, while improving document workflow and increasing the effectiveness of business communications with a single workgroup device.
Highlights of the announcement:
- The MC560 MFP is available at a competitive price point with a compact design, providing small-medium workgroups the opportunity to save money and the valuable office space associated with maintaining multiple devices
- The new MFP features HD Color Technology with class-leading print resolution of 1200 x 600 dpi and superior monochrome print and copy speeds of 323 pages-per-minute (ppm)
- The new MFP improves workgroup performance by consolidating the creation and distribution of documents with one easy-to-use device
- The MC560 MFP consumes less energy than the equivalent number of single-function products, resulting in a reduced impact on the environment
'In today's ever changing economy, small to medium size businesses are looking for creative ways to cut costs in all areas without having to sacrifice quality or efficiency,' said Mike Garofola, Senior Marketing Manager, Color Products at OKI Data Americas. 'These customers have a wide range of document handling needs and require devices they can depend on to perform a variety of business functions, but without the costly investment. However, having too many single function devices (individual printer, copier, scanner, fax machine) can waste valuable office space and make document workflow too cumbersome. The fast print/copy speeds and premium performance of the MC560 color MFP provides customers with the ability to create impactful, high-quality documents, quickly and efficiently and for less money.'
The MC560 MFP is ideal for users focused on affordability and ease-of-use, with full functionality, reliability, fast print/copy speeds and flexible paper handling that can be shared in networked environments. With multi-tasking capabilities, as a standard added benefit in medium size workgroups, the MC560 MFP replaces the need for individual faxing, printing, copying and scanning devices. By replacing multiple single function devices with the full functioned MC560 MFP, workgroups can also save time, money and energy and help reduce their environmental impact, at the affordable price of $999.

Fast print/copy speeds of 20 ppm color and 32 ppm black-and-white3 to improve office efficiency and maximize small to medium workgroup productivity and performance
