We at KBA Document Solutions know that Kyocera devices are some of the most user friendly copiers on the market. Now the new line of Kyocera 3 series devices have awards to back it up.
DataMaster Lab recently announced its annual awards for the category of “Easiest to Use”. Kyocera’s line of MFPs received 5 “Winner” awards across both A3/A4 machines.
Edward Bilson, Technical Director of DataMaster Lab, had this to say regarding the testing process, “We are delighted to announce the second edition of the DataMaster Lab Print Awards. Last year’s awards were so well received because they are about performance in the real-world scenarios that end customers really care about. Our evaluations are all based on data from our own Lab which is available to DataMaster Online subscribers, so the whole world can see that they are both independent and credible. As such, they might differ from other industry awards – but you can rely on ours.”
“Our test engineers know all the brands’ interfaces, drivers, machine web pages and admin sections. Our approach is scientific. We review how easy it is for new users to utilize the products at their disposal – and how quickly experienced users can make the most of them – without needing to call technical support.“

We have standardized tests for the interface, driver, web page, consumables and admin screens.

All testing feeds information to DMO, which is used by sales teams, marketing specialists and buyers all over the world. DMO also carries all the technical specifications for over 5,000 MFPs and presses in all segments, sales arguments for them all (both pro and con), and the same for the software solutions sold in the print world.
