Q) How do I incorporate colour documents in my
monochrome workflow?
Colour Scanning – You can digitise, save, share and
reuse colour documents easily by scanning them and
printing in monochrome.
Q) How do I streamline my office’s document
management needs?
Smart Output Management and Unified Firmware –
You can choose between biometric* and non-contact
IC* card authorisation to suit your application, and
energy and paper usage can be controlled by several
copy number, print and fax output functions. Universal
management of all your multifunction devices is easy
on your network because the 423 series uses the same
firmware as colour models in the bizhub range of products.

Q) How do I minimise my environmental impact
and total product lifecycle costs?

Toner Recycling Mechanism
With the bizhub 423/363/283/223 you can recycle
untransferred toner to reduce the generation
of toner waste.
The cleaning blade removes all toner that is not
transferred from the photoconductor and carries
it through the recycle duct to the developing unit.
Environmentally Kind Toner
In 2000, Konica Minolta introduced the revolutionary new
Simitri toner, the world’s first polymerised toner for digital
monochrome multifunction devices, made from biomass,
a plant-based resource. The result is perfect images
printed with minimal environmental impact.
It’s Quiet
The bizhub 423 series is the quietest multifunction
device in its class in standby mode. High performance
doesn’t mean high noise levels, with the ADF featuring
noise reduction to minimise interference in your working
environment.
Save Your Energy
You can save on energy costs with the bizhub 423
series. Its TEC* values gain Energy Star certification
with ease, surpassing them by up to 62% in the case
of the bizhub 423.
* TEC (Typical Electricity Consumption) is the method used by Energy Star.
Consider the
environment
You can save the world’s resources while you work, and at the same
time ensure that your office is a pleasant working environment.

IP Address Fax
Send a colour or monochrome fax to any SMTP-compatible
device or bizhub on the network that supports IP Fax,
by simply selecting an IP address. This feature uses existing
network systems and does not incur additional costs.
TSI Routing
Transmitting Subscriber Identification (TSI) recognises
and sorts faxes by sender, whether they are individuals
or organisations. All faxes from each sender can be
automatically received and stored in a folder in the Box.
Faxes can be sent separately to an e-mail, FTP or SMB
server, providing extra convenience for users absent
from the office.
Colour Internet Fax
This standard feature enables cost-efficient
transmission of colour and monochrome faxes to any
multifunction device that supports Profile C standard,
including those outside the intranet. This method takes
advantage
of your pre-existing internet infrastructure, helping
to reduce costs even further.

Biometric Authentication*
This authentication process scans
the unique finger veins of users so
that only registered users may operate
the multifunction device. This means
that cards and passwords are no
longer required, making the job of
administrators much easier and
simplifying the process for users.
* Optional
Non-Contact IC Card Authentication*
Pre-existing employee cards can be used
with this security method so extra cards
are not necessary. IC cards may also be
used to authenticate or restrict entry to
certain rooms or floors for added security.
* Optional
User Authentication
There is a standard authentication system in the body of the
bizhub 423 series. For situations where there are no servers,
users and departments can set permission for greater control
of output and reductions in costs.
Copy Security*
(Copy Guard and Password Copy)
Documents can be copied or printed with a special
security pattern when Copy Guard is used, to prevent
unauthorised copies. This function can be cancelled
with the use of a password to allow the document
to be copied again.
* Optional

Device Management
PageScope Enterprise Suite
The web-based PageScope Enterprise Suite was developed
to streamline the management and administration of the
device, thereby controlling costs. Five optional modules
simplify tasks that were once time consuming.
1. PageScope Authentication Manager
This enables simple and efficient setting of authentication
data for each user for multiple multifunction devices on a
network. User management is integrated and streamlined.
2. PageScope Account Manager
This simplifies aggregate analysis and management
of network devices. Analysing detailed usage conditions,
estimating costs and graphing the aggregate results help
to reduce unnecessary costs and to manage costs on
a group basis.
3. Pagescope My Panel Manager
The control panel setting desired by each user can be
customised and simultaneously stored in multiple bizhubs.
4. PageScope Net Care Device Manager
System administrators can create initial settings for devices
managed by PSES for streamlined device control.
5. Pagescope My Print Manager
Documents can be released from any managed device
to facilitate printing, so it is not necessary to check for
the nearest device when sending a print job.
