 CRN magazine - Product of the Year
According to CRN's Marc Spiwak, the magicolor 7450 "…offers a terrific combination of performance, image quality and paper handling at an estimated street price of $2,999, earning it the nod as Product of the Year…" in the imaging category. Additionally, Spiwak noted the printer is "…easy for solution providers to set up, as it's small and doesn't weigh as much as many other large-format printers." The printer also offers monitoring and management tools that are convenient for users and can translate into added revenue for dealers. The magicolor 7450 is just one of many laser printers and all-in-one products in the Konica Minolta line that offer excellent profit potential through a Partner Program rich in simplicity and resources.
