Product Leadership

Kyocera's global leadership in printer technology was combined with Mita's strength in copiers and multi-functional products when the two companies merged in 2000. Kyocera has leveraged this combined strength to manufacture a complete line of award-winning digital imaging products and their advanced ceramic components, including a long-life drum unit and engine that are common on all Kyocera-manufactured products. Kyocera introduced the world's first single-layer photo-electrostatic OPC drum in 1998, and continues to excel in the development and manufacture of long-life drums, a component it supplies to many printer and copier manufacturers around the world.

All Kyocera ECOSYS printers and multifunctional products utilize the common KX driver, which provides a standard look and feel for end users and also enables the easy set-up and management of all products running on the network.

Technology Innovation

Kyocera innovates using technology to reduce TCO, streamline advanced document imaging tasks and protect the environment. Its environmental awareness is evidenced through the ECOSYS brand of printers. Unnecessary waste of cartridges is eliminated in ECOSYS products, since toner is added to the existing unit without disposal of the drum, a feature that not only helps protect the environment but contributes to a low TCO.



Dealer Network

The award-winning, high-performance Kyocera product line is offered through a nationwide network of over 400 dealers, who add value to customers through quality integration, customization and 24/7 service and support for the products. Kyocera supports its network of dealers with a strong National and Government Accounts Division that assists with large, multi-regional opportunities and provides a focused strategy for Fortune 1000 accounts and the government.
