The Kyocera Mita FS-1116MFP is a truly great piece of kit. A scanner, printer, photocopier & fax machine in one, this device fits surprisingly neatly onto the desk next to a computer.

There are a number of ways in which this printer stands out from the crowd and makes it a great alternative to the cheaper and better known brand alternatives. The first is the main selling point of these relatively pricey printers. The Ecosys system ensures that consumables hardly need replacing. If this printer is used in an office, then the money spent on replacement cartriges and the like will noticeably plummet. If used rarely in your home, you will wait years before having to even think about upgrading the ink.

The second stand out feature is the ease of use. For everything from printing from your computer to sending a fax to making a photocopy, this printer has been designed with the customer in mind. Almost everything can be done at a push of one button. Settings which are useful to the majority have been brought out onto the frong panel and things like brightness & zoom are now available as standalone buttons. Moreover, a number of buttons on the left of the panel are left free for you to devise your own custom uses which makes this an incredibly customer-centric product.

The quality and speed of printing is exceptional and I would easily recommend the printer to anyone who wants a quality long-lasting all-in-one device.
