Easy-to-use paper trays

The lightweight paper trays on the new bizhub i-Series open and close smoothly with a light press or pull motion. Moreover, in the case of a paper jam, the paper trays can be easily removed to fix the jam.

High-quality output

Print at 1,200 dpi resolution for excellent reproduction of small font sizes and detailed design. Outstanding resolution capabilities ensure enhanced legibility of documents and sharp reproduction of fine lines.

Printing at 1,200 dpi slows printing speed.

Non-image Area Erase

Often times, making copies from odd-size or thick materials can produce unwanted shadows on the outside of the image.

Paper compatibility

Both the main paper tray and the manual feed tray can feed a wide range of paper weights from 60 to 210 g/m²

Automatic copy area detection

Non-standard-size documents placed on the platen glass or in the ADF of the 4751i and 4051i are automatically measured, and the size can be registered and saved for future use. This function is ideal for businesses that constantly handle odd-size documents such as tickets or vouchers.

Print from the in-panel web browser
