Product Overview
Toshiba has revamped its light-production lineup with the new e-STUDIO1058 and e-STUDIO1208, which provides standard printing, copying and scanning features. The e-STUDIO1058 prints and copies at up to 105 ppm and has a first-page-out time of 3.2 seconds, while the e-STUDIO1208 runs at up to 120 ppm. The monthly duty cycle is 1,000,000 pages.
Both devices run off of Toshiba’s e-BRIDGE controller that includes a 1.8 GHz processor, 5 GB of memory, and 1 TB hard disk drive. PCL and PostScript are supported, as well as direct JPEG, web, email, and PDF printing. USB and Ethernet are standard. Duplexing is standard.
There is a 15″ touchscreen with a swipe-style interface that lets users access commonly-used functions, such as the address book, copying, and tray settings, straight from the control panel. There is also a retractable pull-down keyboard.
More details are found in our Features section below.
At up to 120 ppm, the e-STUDIO1208 Series represent Toshiba’s speediest monochrome machines that’s ideal for production-oriented companies with a lot of printing/copying needs without color output.
Features
These devices come standard with a tandem two-tray unit that includes one tray with 1,200 sheets and another tray with 800 sheets. The tandem unit accepts up to letter-size paper only. There is also two additional trays of 500 sheets each that accept up to 12″ x 18″ paper. There is also a 100-sheet bypass tray. The standard capacity is 3,000 sheets. Companies can purchase a 500-sheet bypass tray that goes with the large-capacity tray, a two-drawer large-capacity tray with 2,500 sheets in each drawer, and a 3,000-sheet large capacity tray. Maximum capacity is 13,500 sheets.
These models have a standard 250-sheet duplexing document feeder that scans and copies up to 120 ppm (240 ipm in duplex).
An inserter unit which holds 400 sheets (2 x 200) is available as an option. There are a few finishing options available. First, there is a 100-sheet stapling finisher that holds up to 4,000 sheets. And there is a 100-sheet finisher with 20-sheet saddlestitching (80-page booklets) and an additional booklet trimmer option. Users can optionally purchase a hole-punch unit with either finisher.
The color scanning feature supports scanning to email with the LDAP address book integration as well as these file formats: JPEG, TIFF, PDF, and XPS.
Power usage on these machines is extremely low. They also have fast warm-up speeds of 210 seconds, so that companies doesn’t have to keep the machines in a ready state all the time. That’s a big plus for companies wanting to reduce their carbon footprint. A very high toner yield (120,000 pages) means less maintenance time. Toshiba also offers its Zero Waste to Landfill recycling program that accepts all old toner cartridges.
These devices have a wide range of security features, including data overwrite, encryption, authentication, hidden pattern printing, image logs, and erase private data.
