Kyocera Document Solutions Inc., a leader in the field of managed document solutions, has announced that five of its multi-function A3 business printers from its TASKalfa range, namely the 4002i, 5002i, 6002i, 7002i and the 8002i, have won the Buyer's Laboratory LLC (BLI) Winter Pick 2018 award in the Copier MFP category.

George Mikolay, BLI's Senior Product Editor who covers A3 copiers and printers for the company, said that "Kyocera's Pick winners proved to be stellar players from which mid- to large-size businesses will certainly benefit. Outstanding reliability, high quality, and fast speeds coupled with smooth integration with various productivity-enhancing, cost-saving, and security-boosting solutions through HyPAS enablement, all at a lower-than-average price, make them an outstanding value proposition."

"Being recognised by BLI in these key areas is a true honour," said Karen Vivier, Hardware Product Manager at Kyocera Document Solutions South Africa.
