Kyocera's Low TCO - Color Printing
TCO = Total Cost of Ownership. While a cheap printer may initially be music to your ears, this could later lead to additional expenses
such as costly drum replacements and repeated toner purchases. This is particularly prevalent for color printing, which is an effective
way to maximize the impact of your print materials. With Kyocera, you can achieve vibrant color prints while keeping your TCO low.

black and white documents every day. Kyocera’s monochrome printers and MFPs also deliver long-term reliability and high toner yields,
which keeps maintenance to a minimum and your costs minimal.
