The compact solution

Less space

more quality
Many small businesses still work with a large variety of analogue office devices: a printer to print, a copier to copy, and a fax machine for faxing. But doesnt it make more sense to use one space-saving device that can perform all of these functions? An up-to-date machine that offers results which analogue equipment simply cannot deliver. Konica Minolta has the compact answer to your business needs. The bizhub 160, 160 f and 161 are high-quality compact multifunctional devices that do it all, and digitally, too. Its sparing in size, but large in effectiveness and quality.
Which one is right for you?
The bizhub 160, 160f and 161 are three different pre-configured monochrome devices with an output of 16 pages per minute. Each one is designed to meet the specific needs of your small business, workgroup or workstation. The bizhub 160 is ideal for busy offices that require quick on-the-spot copies or prints of documents. The bizhub 160 f has a built-in fax function suitable for home offices where quotes or invoices have to be printed, correspondence faxed and documents copied. The bizhub 161 is the right device for a workgroup in which the entire team requires access to a network printer but also needs the occasional copy. Whichever model you choose, the benefits are great: low hardware costs, convenient copying as well as functions that you never expected from such a small convenient digital system, like colour scanning.
