Katun Introduces New Katun® Performance™ Toner for use in Konica Minolta bizhub 420/500-series Digital Copier/Printers
Katun expands already strong line of parts and supplies for use in Konica Minolta machines
MINNEAPOLIS -- (April 2009) -- Katun Corporation, the world’s leading alternative supplier to the office equipment industry, is proud to introduce Katun® Performance™ toner for use in Konica Minolta bizhub 360/361/420/421/500/501 (420/500-series) digital copier/printers.
“Our product offering for Konica Minolta dealers, which has always been robust, becomes even stronger with the introduction of this new Katun® Performance™ toner,” says Joseph C. Wagner, Katun’s vice president of marketing. “Last month’s introduction of Katun® Performance™ color toners for use in C300/C352 machines has been received extremely well by our customers, as has Katun’s toner for use in Konica Minolta bizhub 600/750 machines, which was introduced last year. This new 420/500-series toner provides many of the same outstanding benefits, including OEM-equivalent performance, terrific cost savings and outstanding overall value.”
Designed and rigorously tested to provide OEM-equivalent image density, half-tone reproduction, background imaging, yields and fusing performance, this toner will meet dealers’ and end-users’ performance expectations. The cost savings versus the OEM toner leads to improved cost-per-copy and profitability on current machines, as well as increased competitiveness when bidding for new business.
The introduction of this toner also completes Katun’s suite of products for Konica Minolta bizhub 420/500-series machines. Katun now offers the toner, drum, drum cleaning blade, upper fuser roller and lower pressure roller – as well as other key parts for these applications. Enjoy the convenience of ordering all the parts and supplies you need from one source, along with the confidence in knowing the all these products are forward and reverse compatible with each other and with the OEM parts and supplies.
