Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Toshiba e-STUDIO 5525AC 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 8,000-20,000 color pages a month for a 20-40 person large office
  • You want a current-generation tablet UI and native cloud connectors
  • You need A3 for marketing collateral and large spreadsheets
  • You have a slightly smaller footprint than a print room
  • You scan to Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, or Box
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if your monthly color volume varies between 5,000 and 18,000 pages
  • It's fine if you start without a heavy finisher and add later
  • It's fine if 60% of your work is monochrome
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if your monthly volume exceeds 25,000 pages, since a 5506AC handles it better
  • Skip this if you need photo-lab color quality
  • Skip this if your office is under 10 people
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

At 55 PPM color and monochrome, the Toshiba e-STUDIO 5525AC fits a 20-40 person large office that needs daily color throughput on a current-generation platform without stepping all the way up to the 5506 enterprise tier. The e-BRIDGE Next controller drives the 10.1-inch tablet touchscreen, A3 tabloid is supported, duplex runs at full speed, and paper capacity scales past 4,500 sheets across drawers. Native cloud connectors for Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, and Box ship standard. The trade-off versus the 5506AC: the 5525AC is tuned for a slightly smaller footprint and a slightly lower duty cycle ceiling around 25,000 pages a month, so a print room running 30,000+ pages will be happier with the 5506AC.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.
