Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What performance difference exists between the Aficio 2018 and the Aficio 2016?
  The Aficio 2018 features an accelerated engine configuration that increases copy and print speeds up to an efficient 18 pages per minute on standard letter stock, compared to the 16 pages per minute ceiling on the Aficio 2016 model. This speed bump helps expanding workgroups maintain momentum during multi-page print or copy tasks.
• Does the Aficio 2018 accommodate large 11 in. by 17 in. Tabloid sheets?
  Yes. Unlike compact desktop devices, the Aficio 2018 features an expandable console chassis and a large platen scan bed designed to handle full ledger or tabloid dimensions up to 11 inches by 17 inches, rendering it an asset for large accounting folders and schematic blueprints.
• How does the separate toner and drum system structure help control our office budget?
  This system relies on an independent two-piece component architecture where the Type 1230D toner cartridge and the internal photoconductor drum operate as completely isolated modules. This ensures your workspace only swaps out the specific element that is physically depleted, maximizing component lifespan and lowering your total cost per copy page.
