We had some difficulty setting the TCP/IP network connection automatically and ended up installing the Minolta-QMS machine as a local printer and later changing it to the network setting manually.
The Minolta was generally very good on quality. In terms of speed it was inconsistent; it easily rated the highest peak pages per minute, but was the slowest on average speed. This slowness was associated with a tendency to pause for a couple of seconds after printing two to four pages -- with no apparent pattern.
Options available include a duplexer, lower tray, and a four-bin sorter. This doesn't seem to be the best machine economically; the big 15,000-page toner cartridges are reasonably priced and the maximum power consumption is 1000W. On a more positive note the PagePro will accept A3-sized paper. The printer can be connected via parallel, USB, or network.
