DataMaster Lab's Line of the Year Award goes to the TASKalfa A3 range by Kyocera
04 May 2022
DataMaster Lab is completely independent from the equipment manufacturers whose products we test. We derive no revenue from testing, nor from our evaluations, certifications - and not from our Digital Imaging Awards either.
We have been testing printing equipment since 2009, and our services are dedicated to helping sales and marketing teams who distribute copiers, printers, and, since 2020, scanners. We know what buyers need. We know how to differentiate products in the office market place.
The MFP Line of the Year is a new Award for 2022. In addition to great productivity, excellent print and scan quality, usability and good environmental credentials, we are looking for innovation, build quality and market appeal - with no weaknesses across all these wide-ranging criteria.
Our evaluation process is detailed, and it is based entirely on analyses of specifications, and test results from our own independent laboratory.
The Kyocera TASKalfa series 4 colour MFPs all share the high-quality of design and manufacture, and the same intuitive interface.
Edward Bilson, DataMaster Lab's Technical Director said, "Kyocera's latest TASKalfa series is born of rigorous re-engineering of an already successful product. From the long-life drum, cable-less exterior to the soft-close drawers, these machines ooze high-quality of manufacture and reliability."
The Award is available to subscribers to the sales-enablement service DataMaster Online on the product pages of the machines concerned, and from our public website here.

DMO is the Benchmark service for digital printing and document imaging.
From machines to software products we analyze, test and evaluate features and functions, usability, security, productivity, print and scan quality, connectivity, flexibility, compatibility, and much more - all in real-world, business scenarios and in the context of this rapidly evolving market.
Totally independent, we provide you with an objective and critical view.
