Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Copystar CS 308ci is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You print 3,000 to 9,000 A4 pages a month for a 10-25 person office.
  • You need 1200 x 1200 dpi for marketing-grade color.
  • You'll use 4 GB RAM and 320 GB HDD for retained jobs.
  • You scan color duplex at 60 ipm.
  • You'll add the card reader for secure print release.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if 32 ppm covers your daily volume.
  • It's fine if you skip the optional fax.
  • It's fine if you keep 600 sheets standard.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you push past 10,000 monthly.
  • Skip this if you need A3 (move to CS 2554ci or 3050ci).
  • Skip this if you need a 10.1 inch touch panel.
  • Skip this if you only print mono (CS 3010i is cheaper).
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Copystar CS 308ci is the enterprise-grade 32 ppm A4 color MFP for small-to-medium workgroups — print, copy, scan, and optional fax in a sleek A4 chassis with 4 GB RAM and a 320 GB HDD. Resolution is 1200 x 1200 dpi for sharp output, monthly capacity is 100,000 pages, and first-page-out is 6.4 sec B/W and 7.8 sec color. Color scanning runs 60 ipm with the 7 inch touch screen, and automatic stackless duplex handles double-sided jobs. Optional card reader and finishers extend the platform. The 7 inch color touchscreen runs HyPAS apps for scan workflow, secure print release, and authentication. Footprint is roughly 19 x 21 inches and weight is around 90 lb on the desktop. Power draw is under 1.5 kW peak with 1 W sleep. Mono toner yields around 15,000 pages and color around 7,000 pages each — modest but predictable for the volume class. Honest regret: at 32 ppm A4 with 1200 x 1200 dpi this is the right pick over the CS 306ci or 307ci for any office that cares about color quality — pay the small upcharge and skip the older units.
