Features

Robust bizhub PRO Design. A true print professional, designed from the ground up to handle the rigorous demands of high-volume production printing in both corporate and print-for-pay environments.

High-Speed Output. 105 ppm print/copy output handles high-volume production print demands through a workhorse monthly duty cycle of up to 1,500,000 impressions.

Tandem Print and Tandem Copy. You can link two bizhub PRO 1050e devices to produce up to 210 ppm -- a real advantage for large jobs on tight deadlines.

Precise Registration Adjustment. Front-to-back registration accuracy of 0.5mm or less helps the bizhub PRO 1050e maintain job integrity, with independent adjustments for transversal direction, timing and image shift -- plus low temperature fixing, improved sensing precision and creep adjustment in booklet mode.

Air-Assist Paper Feed. Air blowers in paper trays separate sheets to improve high-speed paper handling and keep even coated paper stock moving smoothly.

Multi-Feed Detection System. Ultrasonic sensors detect misfeeds, prevent paper jams and maximize print production efficiency.

Simitri® Polymerized Toner. Ultra-fine particles of smaller size and more consistent shape improve detail and definition for sharper text and smoother halftone reproduction.

High Toner Yield. High toner yield of 176,000 impressions for cost-effective production printing.

Built-in Print Control. PCL/PS3 printing and flexible 103 opm scanning give you all-around productivity right from the start; a large LCD touch-screen mounted on a convenient swivel arm provides simple menus, on-screen thumbnail preview and on-board control of job print and finishing functions, including Job Memory (30 jobs) and Job Reserve (100 Jobs) for quick printing and reprinting.

Fast, Flexible Scanning. With built-in print control, the bizhub PRO 1050e provides scan-to-Email, Scan-to-SMB to distribute documents to secure mailboxes for immediate access, and Scan-to-HDD to store documents on a built-in 40 GB hard disk drive. Scan-to-FTP enables retrieval by any network user -- and TWAIN scan permits retrieval of images scanned into your hard drive.

9,000-Sheet Input. High paper capacity for longer unattended operation; universal paper drawers handle paper weights from 16 lb. bond to 170 lb. index, in sizes up to 12" x 18" so you can handle any print specs.

Powerful Finishing Options. A wide range of production finishing options includes perfect-bound or saddle-stitch booklet-making, in-line face trimming, post-sheet insertion and hole-punching, and page stacking up to 10,000 sheets.

Perfect Binding for Books and Manuals. The optional PB-501 Perfect Binder unit provides fast, inline perfect binding and trimming -- with hot-melt gluing for strong, flexible 300-sheet, 600-page booklets, plus a cover tray that holds up to 1,000 wraparound covers.

A Seamless Suite of PageScope® Software. PageScope Web connection lets you check device status via your standard web browser -- and PageScope Net Care helps IT administrators manage all MIB-compliant output devices from a single point, including models made by other manufacturers.

Advanced PageScope Print Management Capabilities. With PageScope Job Spooler, you view and manage your print queue from any network-connected PC -- and PageScope Direct Print lets you send PDF or TIFF files to your bizhub PRO 1050e via simple commands without using print drivers or application software.
