Award-Winning Product

Aficio SP 100

Aficio SP 100

The Aficio SP 100 is a compact A4-sized B/W laser printer that can be set up on an individual desk. The printer employs a system for refilling genuine toner which strikes a balance between low cost and waste reduction. Delivering performance for office work in SOHO and small- and medium-sized business settings, it is currently available throughout Europe, North America, and Asian countries, mainly China.
By emphasizing "White" to produce a sense of compactness and adjusting the black color scheme by developing a folding paper-feeding component, the design reduces the impression of mass, resulting in a slim look. You can find out about other design considerations here.
