2. TCO Reduction① Reduce TCO with the monochrome MFP for the colour document era. Reduced output costs Optimising colour/monochrome MFP infrastructure As more businesses turn to colour documents, it’s easy to forget that monochrome is fine for meeting materials and text proofing. That’s when a monochrome MFP can help reduce TCO. ColourMFPs Dept. A Output for clients Output for clients Dept. B Internal check Internal check Dept. C Colour documents ColourMFPs Monochrome MFPs Personal copy for proofing Personal copy for proofing Divide work between colour/monochrome MFPs to reduce costs! Colour output Monochrome output With colour business documents becoming the norm, an optimal balance of colour/monochrome MFPshelp cut costs. To answer this need, there’s the new bizhub 423 series: the new backbone as Konica Minolta continues to strengthen development of its colour MFP lineup. 3

3. Efficient management with a mix of colour/monochrome MFPs TCO Reduction② Reduced management resources Integrated management with colour/monochrome MFPs Integrated management means being able to efficiently monitor and analyse all MFPs at once. With a balance of colour/monochrome MFPs on the network, being able to flexibly and quickly set output limits and usage restrictions for each user and each MFP greatly reduces resources and costs. 【Reducing Management Resources and Costs】 ●Unified colour/monochrome MFP management with PSES ●Integrated output restrictions, security settings, etc. Colour MFP Ex. bizhub C360series Third-generation unified firmware System administrator Monochrome MFP User Ex. bizhub 423series Third-generation unified firmware The bizhub 423 features third-generation unified firmware, offering seamless functionality with colourMFPs. 4

6. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: High image quality Clear, easy-to-read output, even from colour documents 1 Offers subtle gradations and high-precision monochrome output of colour documents. Even areas that were difficult for monochrome MFPs (such as faint colours) are reproduced with high accuracy. Controls shifts in gradation for excellent photo image quality. This is especially true during printing when the screen (which is optimised for the engine) improves gradations and graininess. When faxes are received, resolution is converted to reproduce thin lines without breaks or graininess. Images Text as small as 5.25 point in size is reproduced without breaks or jaggedness. Thinning and jaggedness is also reduced for reverse text. Text Resin pearl particles, wax and pigment have been optimised.Smoothness is also increased for excellent transfer and reproduction.

7. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: Colour scanner 2 Use and share colour data as-is with monochrome MFPs. A colour scanner comes standard to facilitate colour data creation and sharing. Also, PDF and fax (optional) functions have been improved to meet the demands of the colour era. Ex. bizhub C360series bizhub 423series E-mail Colour document Colour document SMB Input Input BOX/FTP Monochrome docuement Monochrome docuement Output Output Internet Fax/IP Address Fax Offers network scanning as standard, with 42opm* scanning speed across the bizhub 423 series. Multi-method send is also available. *Colour/monochrome (A4, 600dpi). Max., 70opm(A4, 300dpi) Colour scanning OCR is carried out during scanning, acquired as data and displayed as overlay. Text and keyword searches are then possible, increasing usability. Searchable PDF Faxes can be sent or received in colour via Internet Fax or IP address fax. Colour fax functions 8

8. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: Colour control panel 3 Features the same GUI as colourMFPs for seamless usability. To improve ease-of-use, boost productivity and reduce TCO, the bizhub 423 uses the same colour interface as the C360 series. This reduces the need to relearn a new interface. With a large 8.5-inch colour LCD panel, documents in the Box can be displayed as thumbnails for easy searching. The GUI is also the same as colourMFPs, and users can get help with voice and animation guidance. Colour control panel The panel can be tilted to four different heights, improving usability for every user. The bizhub 362/C360 series only had three adjustable heights. bizhuba 423series Exclusive! The InfoLINE design has been continued, offering a multi-bypass with smaller protruding shapes to save space and enhance the appearance. Space-saving design Easier opening/closing trays The paper trays feature a lock lever, making it possible to open and close them with a single finger. 9

9. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: Security functions Flexible, efficient security management for the whole office. 4 With the same great security features as the C360 series, the 423 series enables integrated management in offices with a mix of colour/monochrome MFPs. This helps improve efficiency, reduce unnecessary output and cut TCO. Since each user has a unique finger vein pattern, high-precision authentication can be done quickly and efficiently (optional). Note: bizhub is the only monochrome MFP with biometric authentication (Seg.2/3/4, as of March 2010) Biometric authentication Password entry is unnecessary, eliminating forgotten passwords to reduce the burden on administrators. Also eliminates hassle of changing passwords periodically. IC card authentication is available (optional), and can be used with employee authentication cards. Non-contact IC card authentication When scanning documents to make a PDF, it can be encrypted with a password. This eliminates the hassle of setting the password at the PC with Acrobat. Encrypted PDF Included security functions are FASEC 1* compliant. *Fax security guidelines from the Communications and Information Security Network Association of Japan. Fax security 10

10. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: Environmentally considerate design Designed to reduce TCO and CO2 emissions every throughout the entire product life. 5 The bizhub 423 series clears the power consumption guidelines of the international Energy Star program. In sleep mode, energy use is reduced to 7.6W or less, while the WUT is 12 seconds or less – the top in the industry. This improves workflow efficiency while reducing energy costs. Reduced power use The height of the main body has been reduced from 718mm to 700mm. To reduce weight, measures have been taken such as, a thinner scanner, a reverse feeding path that has been reduced to a single pass, and a multi-bypass tray that has been made more compact to reduce main body weight.

11. Sales Point for Reducing TCO: Environmentally considerate design Robust environmental consideration from every angle. 5 From the year 2000, Simitri toner has been produced with plant-based materials, which reduces CO2 emissions during toner incineration, while reducing energy consumption during manufacturing. Fusing is performed at a lower temperature to reduce energy use and emissions. Simitri HD toner (polymerised toner) Toner recycling mechanism Toner remaining on the drum is collected and resent to the developing unit. This process eliminates the generation of toner waste. Improved resource life The life of resources such as toner and the drum have increased compared to the bizhub 362 series. Also, the amount of resources used has decreased. 12
