Product Overview
The TASKalfa 9003i Series are the newest entries in Kyocera’s high-volume black-and-white MFP lineup. It consists of three devices that includes standard copying, printing, scanning and optional faxing. The TASKalfa 7003i copies and prints at up to 70 ppm and has a first-page-out time of 4.8 seconds. The TASKalfa 8003i prints at up to 80 ppm and has a first-page-out time of 4.1 seconds. Finally, the TASKalfa 9003i copies and prints at up to 90 ppm and has a first-page-out time of 4 seconds.
All three devices include a 1.4 GHz processor, 4.5 GB of memory and a 320 GB hard drive. There is also a 10.1″ color touchscreen interface for programming common workflows from Kyocera’s HyPAS Business Applications Suite. The suite provides features such as Cloud Connect (for scanning to and printing from the cloud) and Mobile Print. Other features are the DMS Link for keeping up with document management needs, PinPoint Scan for scanning-to-PC functionality, and Microsoft Sharepoint Connector.
PCL and PostScript is supported. USB and Ethernet is standard, but Gigabit Ethernet and Wi-Fi are optional. The series also include mobile printing that support apps like Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print and Kyocera Mobile Print.
The devices also include Kyocera Fleet Services, a cloud-based monitoring service that lets dealers perform routine maintenance tasks for their customers remotely.

Kyocera continues to improve its machines with newer and more robust features. The TASKalfa 9003i Series provides a scalable line of MFPs that’s specifically targeted for production environments that don’t require color output.
