Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Copystar CS 4052ci 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 support 60 to 150 users printing 15,000 to 50,000 mixed color/mono pages monthly.
  • You need enterprise security and finisher options for stapled or saddle-stitch packets.
  • You rely on mobile printing from iOS, Android, and Chromebooks.
  • You'll grow into the 7,150-sheet capacity within two years.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 10,000 to 15,000 pages with mixed color and mono.
  • You want enterprise headroom and the longer service life.
  • You'll add the fax board for occasional inbound faxes.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 8,000 pages a month — get the 3552ci or 3253ci, save the lease cost.
  • You don't need finishing or enterprise security — overspending on features you won't use.
  • You're a small office with no IT — the enterprise feature set needs someone to configure it.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The CS 4052ci is a 40 ppm color A3 enterprise MFP — same speed in color and B&W, 1200x1200 dpi, 9-inch touchscreen, 175,000-page monthly duty cycle. Realistic monthly use is 15,000 to 50,000 mixed color and mono pages. Warm-up under 17 seconds. Standard 1,150 sheets expandable to 7,150. Connectivity is the full stack: AirPrint, Mopria, NFC, Wi-Fi Direct, optional fax. Mobile printing actually works in this generation — earlier Kyocera units had finicky AirPrint, this one's solid. The regret: spec'ing this for an office that does 5,000 pages a month. Enterprise duty cycle, enterprise lease — you're paying monthly for capacity you'll never touch. The 3552ci or 3253ci handles small workgroup volume at lower cost. Where the 4052ci earns its lease is mid-to-large workgroups (60-150 users) printing in real volume with mixed color and mono. Toner yields and maintenance kit intervals are honest, cost per page lands in the typical enterprise range.

FAQ

Copystar CS 4052ci, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (888) 574-5120 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the Copystar CS 4052ci ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter black toner yields approximately 25,000 pages, while each color toner (cyan, magenta, yellow) yields about 15,000 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement toners are available in high-yield options, such as the TK-8527K (black) and TK-8527C/M/Y (color). When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Copystar CS 4052ci is a 40 ppm color MFP with a 175,000-page monthly duty cycle, while the CS 2551ci is a 25 ppm model with a 100,000-page duty cycle. The CS 4052ci features a 9-inch touchscreen, faster warm-up time, and higher paper capacity (expandable to 7,150 sheets vs. 4,100). The CS 2551ci has an 8.5-inch touchscreen and is better suited for smaller workgroups with lower volume needs. For small offices, the CS 2551ci may offer better value due to its lower speed and capacity.
