Simplifying work
The User Interface has been completely revamped with an operation panel screen with smart-device-style operability. Operation has been simplified by narrowing down functions and screen transitions to frequently-used functions.
Easy-to-use, new operation panel design
The operation panel features a new simple GUI (Graphical User Interface) design. Features including no hard keys and panel vibration feedback reflect familiar smart devices and enable easy use of a variety of IT services. Simplicity of operation has been achieved by concentrating on frequently-used functions to minimise functions and screen transitions.
Large, user-friendly, 7-inch touch panel
The 7-inch panel has been newly developed from the customer’s perspective. It delivers better legibility and ease of operation for enhanced work efficiency. The multi-touch feature enables smooth, intuitive, tablet-like operation.
GUI operation panel with a choice of two panel styles
The user can switch between two panel styles as required: the new GUI Basic Style characterised by simple operation, and the conventional Classic Style utilising advanced settings and functions. Basic Style also offers an intuitive Simple Copy screen.
Make tasks simple with purpose-specific apps
The bizhub C266i series simplifies operation with on-screen animated instructions that guide users through tasks. Operations can be performed smoothly in just a few easy steps.
Card shot for ID card copying
Both front and back sides of an ID card can be copied on one sheet of paper in just a few easy steps.
Booklet making
For users who want to create booklets such as magazines.
Non-image area erase function
For users who want to copy with the document cover open, and/or want to omit the shadowy areas around the scanned images of things such as books.
Indicator lights
The bizhub C266i series has been installed with a new LED light that gently harmonises with the office environment. The LED is located for good visibility and indicates data receipt or accumulation. It is designed to be easily visible when users forget to collect documents from the output tray.
Colour Universal Design
Konica Minolta has received Colour Universal Design certification from Japan’s Colour Universal Design Organization (CUDO).
In validation tests using subjects with four types of colour-vision deficiencies, (red and green blindness, red and green weakness), CUDO confirmed that regardless of the deficiency, information transmission in colour by this unit functioned correctly.
Thorough Protection of Office Information
Data security is an ongoing concern in the corporate world. Konica Minolta works tirelessly to keep clients’ documents secure, in both digital and paper formats. By including cutting edge security functions in all Konica Minolta technologies, we aim to reduce the burden on IT administrators.
bizhub SECURE services
Data protection is a major issue for most companies. bizhub delivers advanced security settings through bizhub SECURE services, a total security setting service that provides greater protection for customer data stored in the SSD and device's network settings.
Secure printing
By setting a password for documents on the printer driver screen, the document is stored on the MFP's SSD until the correct password is input on the operation panel. The document is protected without being output until the password set for that document is matched. This is useful when you wish to print confidential documents or give permission for limited users to receive copies.
Use PC login user names for easy secure printing
The PC login profile can be used as an ID for secure printing, so the user can print easily and securely once logged in without the trouble of entering his or her ID each time.
Encrypted SSD
The bizhub C266i series is equipped with a new 256 GB encrypted SSD for heightened security. With very few device compatibility problems, and with full-time encryption, this constantly maintains a high level of security with no fuss. Optional Expansion SSD EM-907 is required.
Various types of user authentication
Optimal authentication systems can be customised to suit office scale and pre-existing systems. The bizhub C266i series also supports single sign-on (SSO) which enhances operability without sacrificing security.
Main unit authentication
Authentication can be performed through the bizhub alone. It is also possible to set detailed usage restrictions for functions, including copy, print, and scan.
Biometric authentication
Highly accurate authentication is possible using finger veins. It’s easy, and also enables the building of high-level security systems.
Requires Biometric Authentication Device AU-102 option, USB interface EK-608 / EK-609 optionand Working Table WT-506 option.
Non-contact IC card authentication
Non-contact IC cards*1 such as FeliCa can be used to authenticate users*2. This also supports SSFC (Shared Security Formats Cooperation) specifications which enable integration of staff authentication with authentication systems. Apart from non-contact IC cards, authentication can also be carried out on NFC-compatible Android devices*3.
*1 Non-contact IC cards are compatible with FeliCa (IDm), SSFC, FCF, FCF (Campus) and MIFARE (UID).
*2 Requires the IC card authentication device AU-201S option option and USB interface EK-608 / EK-609 option.
*3 Requires an Android device later than Android 4.4, compatible with HCE (Post Card Emulation), and Konica Minolta Mobile Print.
Virus scanning
The bizhub C266i series is equipped with robust antivirus software based on an embedded Bitdefender scan engine to ensure safe connection to devices including PCs, tablets, and USB flash drives. Scanning individual files means much finer virus detection than with the whitelist method alone. Latent viruses in the office are discovered through checking and notification when files are input. Checking when files are output from the MFP also prevents dissemination of infected files. Further periodic checking of files in the MFP discovers risky files and detects latent risks in the MFP. Real time virus scan jobs are available for print, scan while manual or scheduled virus scans are possible for folders such as SMB folders on the Box and SSD. Requires i-Option LK-116 and Expansion SSD EM-907. Requires an internet environment.
Recognised high-level security ISO/IEC 15408 certification
To objectively prove the reliability of Konica Minolta MFP security functions, we plan to apply for the Common Criteria (CC) for Information Technology Security Evaluation (ISO/IEC 15408). The bizhub C266i series will also obtain CC certification for compliance with HCD-PP v1.0 (Protection Profile for Hardcopy Devices).
Information security-related certification obtained for this product (and this system) demonstrates compliance with certification requirements as a result of evaluations based on specified evaluation standards and methods, but does not assure that the product (or the system) is completely without weaknesses.
Always at the forefront
Konica Minolta remotely manages bizhub operating conditions and toner levels, and delivers a variety of support and cloud services including automatic firmware updates and remote monitoring.
Worldwide Remote Service Platform
We developed new services leveraging IoT so users can focus on their core business. i-Series intelligently collects data for self-diagnostic and remote maintenance, as well as predicts the optimum replacement time for parts and consumables to minimise downtime.
Web browser function
The bizhub C266i series supports a web browser function. Websites can be displayed on the operation panel and printed out. Pages in PDF files on the website can be specified and only the required sections printed. This is very handy, allowing easy printing such as of destination maps from the site.
bizhub Connectors
The operation panel connects to various cloud services*1 and corporate internal server SharePoint 2007/2010/2013/2016, enabling connectivity for scan data uploads or direct printing. After logging in to the bizhub, users can also automatically log in under silent mode by entering and saving authentication information to services such as the cloud.
Animated guide
The animated guide demonstrates procedures such as handling paper jams and replenishing consumables. Following the instructions displayed on the operation panel ensures smooth operation.
High-performance quad-core CPU
A high performance Cortex A72 CPU Quad Core 1.6 GHz CPU improves overall system performance over the previous model’s dual core, 1.2 GHz CPU. The extra CPU cores mean efficient parallel processing of applications, and seamless operation of cloud applications even during basic processing functions such as copying and printing.
Copy/Print
Equipped with advanced functions for colour MFPs. Both Copy and Print functions exhibit outstanding performance.
Adoption of colour matching, corresponding to “memory colour”
Printer driver colour settings have been revised to perform colour matching corresponding to default “memory colour settings”. “Memory colour settings” refer to colours that most people recall as being brighter and more saturated than reality. Konica Minolta’s colour matching improves satisfaction with print quality by strongly appealing to people’s colour memories.
Copy both sides of an ID card onto one sheet with Card Shot function
When copying both sides of an irregular-sized original, such as a license or business card, the front and back sides of the card can be automatically arranged to be printed on the same side of one sheet. Easy copying is possible by selecting the Card Shot app on the User Interface.
Reduce toner consumption with the Non-Image Area Erase function
When copying with the cover open, such as for thick books, the original is automatically detected and the shadowy area around the original is omitted. This saves excess toner consumption. Easy operation is possible by selecting the relevant apps on the User Interface.
Lightweight paper trays
Paper trays handle easily and open/close smoothly with a light press and pull motion. Trays can be removed for retrieval of jammed paper, which equates to less downtime.
Print banners up to 1,200 mm with banner printing
The bypass tray supports th feeding of banner paper and enables banner printing up to 1,200 mm. POPs and banners for a wide range of purposes can be created in a variety of sizes.
Print directly from your USB flash drive
The bizhub C266i series is equiped with a USB port, located on the side of the operation panel. After inserting a USB flash drive, printing procedures pop up in the touch screen, and the flash drive data can be directly printed or saved to a Box in the unit in a few easy steps.
May not operate correctly depending on the type of USB flash drive. Supported file formats: PDF, compact PDF, JPEG, TIFF, XPS, compact XPS, and OOXML (.docx/.xlsx/.pptx).
Printing results may differ from the image on the PC screen. Virus check function requires i-Option LK-116 and Expansion SSD EM-907.
Supports VLAN (Virtual LAN)
The bizhub C266i series supports a VLAN function that splits multiple networks logically. Data can be isolated for each network, such as externally vs. internally connected networks, company dedicated vs. guest-only networks, or in shared offices so the bizhub can be used securely.
Scan/Fax
The Scan functions deliver high performance and high functionality from speed, quality and distribution to storage.
Send large volume scan data with ease using the Scan to URL function
Equipped with a Scan to URL function which stores Scan data within the bizhub, then emails the storage destination URL to the user. This enables easy transmission of large volume data that cannot be attached to emails.
Requires solid state drive EM-907.
Outstanding scan performance
Automatic duplex scanning with an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), achieves high-speed scanning of 55 ppm simplex or 20 ppm duplex. Up to 130 sheets* can be loaded at any one time, significantly reducing scanning time and effort. The precision of automatic skew correction, which adjusts the angle of the scanned original, has been greatly improved to deliver highly accurate scanning with less skew.
Send scan data instantly to your own email address with “Scan (email to me)”
Users can send scan data such as for receipts and payment slips to themselves immediately. This can also be done securely with the authentication setting. As the "Scan (email to me)" button is on the home screen, the data can be scanned and sent quickly in a few easy steps.
Exclude blank documents from being scanned with blank original removal function
Blank sheets from original documents set on the ADF can be excluded from scanning. Documents detected as blank sheets will not be counted as a page.
Mobile
Offers a new workstyle through advanced connectivity with mobile devices.
Mobile communications function
Connectivity with NFC-equipped Android devices
The operation panel has a mobile touch area compatible with NFC-equipped devices. Installing Konica Minolta Mobile Print on Android devices allows that device to be registered to bizhub. Just holding the Android device over the mobile touch area enables the selected file to be printed. Scanned documents in the bizhub can also be scanned and saved to Android devices or cloud storage. Where user authentication is enabled, just holding the Android device nearby allows log in.
Requires the Android device to be equipped with OS4.4 or later.
Requires a wireless LAN environment.
Bluetooth LE connectivity with iOS devices
Using Bluetooth LE (low energy), a bizhub close to the user can be searched and registered with Konica Minolta Mobile Print. As it is also supported with the iOS action button, printing and scan data sharing from various applications can be smoothly executed. Further, where user authentication is enabled, Bluetooth LE can be used to log in.
Requires the device connection I/ F kit EK-609 Option.
Requires a wireless LAN environment.
Wireless LAN (AP Mode)
The bizhub C266i series supports Simple AP Mode*, which easily creates a local wireless LAN environment with only the bizhub allowing a wireless LAN to be built separately from the company LAN. Because it bypasses the company LAN, even mobile devices brought in from outside can be securely connected.
Requires a upgrade Kit UK-221 Option.
