Production innovation designed for uptime, performance, and modern security
High-volume environments demand more than just speed. They require stability, security, workflow intelligence, and minimal interruption. The newest Kyocera MZ series delivers exactly that.
This production-class lineup includes:
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ7500i
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ8500i
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ9500i
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ10500i
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ7500ci
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ8500ci
- Kyocera TASKalfa MZ9500ci
Built on a unified platform, these models combine high-speed output, AI-enabled scanning, advanced firmware enhancements, and one of the most impactful upgrades in recent years, the Dual Toner Container System for uninterrupted printing.

Production Speeds That Scale With Demand
The Kyocera Nova series spans a production range of:
- 75 pages per minute up to 105 pages per minute in black and white
- Up to 80 pages per minute in color on the color-enabled models
The speed tiers are structured clearly:
The MZ10500i is the highest-speed model in the series and is available exclusively as a black-and-white device. There is no MZ10500ci color version.
For organizations that require color production, the highest-speed color model in this release is the MZ9500ci.
This structured lineup makes it simple to match device capability to real workload volume without overbuying or under-spec’ing equipment.
The Dual Toner Container System: A Major Productivity Upgrade
One of the most meaningful innovations in the MZ series is the industry-first Dual Toner Container System.
Traditional production devices pause when toner runs out. Jobs stop mid-run. Operators intervene. Deadlines tighten.
The new Kyocera MZ series is engineered differently.
The dual container design:
- Automatically switches to a second toner supply when one runs low
- Allows toner replacement while printing continues
- Minimizes interruption during long production runs
In high-volume environments running 75 to 105 pages per minute, uninterrupted printing protects workflow stability. Booklets continue. Finishing continues. Queues remain intact.
This is not a minor convenience feature. It is a productivity safeguard designed specifically for centralized print departments, municipalities, healthcare systems, education environments, and corporate reprographics teams.
Why Productivity Matters More Than Ever
Productivity is not just about speed. It is about consistency and uptime.
The new Nova Kyocera MZ series supports production environments with:
- Standard paper capacity of 4,350 sheets
- Maximum paper capacity up to 7,550 sheets
- Media support up to 13 x 19.2 inches
- Banner printing up to 13 x 48 inches
- Professional finishing options including booklet, Z-fold, inserter, and mailbox units
Scanning performance is equally strong. The series supports:
- Up to 300 images per minute
- Straight-path scanning for thicker media and IDs
- AI-powered scanning workflows handling files up to 5,000 pages
For organizations digitizing records, processing forms, or routing documentation, this reduces labor and improves accuracy.
Advanced Firmware Enhancements & Enterprise Security
Modern production environments require modern protection.
The new Kyocera MZ series includes enhanced firmware architecture designed to support:
- Secure boot processes
- Firmware integrity validation
- Allowlist controls
- Advanced encryption protocols including TLS v1.3
- FIPS 140-3 compliant encryption support
- ISO/IEC 15408 security certification
These enhancements ensure devices are not just productive, but hardened against evolving cybersecurity threats.
Centralized browser-based management allows IT teams to apply security presets and manage policies across fleets, simplifying compliance requirements for healthcare, finance, education, and government environments.
Innovation in this release is not cosmetic. It is operational, combining performance and protection into a single production platform.
Color Stability & Image Precision
For teams producing marketing materials, presentations, internal communications, or public-facing documents, color stability reduces reprints and preserves brand consistency.
Color-capable models support:
- Up to 2400 x 2400 dpi resolution
- Built-in ICC color profiles
- Automatic calibration technology
- Advanced toner formulation for clarity and vibrancy
Consistent color across long runs means less waste, fewer adjustments, and more predictable output.
Upgrade Opportunities Through Document Solutions
If you are currently operating older production equipment, now is an excellent time to evaluate an upgrade.
Document Solutions works with organizations to:
- Assess current production environments
- Recommend properly sized configurations
- Offer trade-in programs for existing equipment
- Structure upgrades that minimize disruption
- Provide installation, training, and long-term service support
Rather than continuing to operate aging systems with higher maintenance costs and older firmware architecture, transitioning to the new Kyocera MZ series can improve uptime, strengthen security posture, and modernize workflow capabilities.
