Four settings on a TASKalfa 3554ci are worth getting right on day one: duplex as the default, the correct stock loaded in the correct cassette, scanning one page at a time, and the N up setting when you copy rather than print.
Each is a menu change.
Duplex is set once and roughly halves the sheets a long document uses.
Paper is the one that bites, because stock the cassette was not set up for will skew as it feeds and jam.
The multi purpose tray exists for everything that is not plain A4, and it takes anything from A6R up to SRA3.
Scanning one page at a time is slower to start and faster to finish, because a mis fed stack means rescanning the lot.
None of this is maintenance in the workshop sense.
The duplex printing feature, allowing automatic printing on both sides of a page, proves invaluable in home or office environments.
This cost effective capability not only conserves paper and ink but, more importantly, saves precious time.
Gone are the days of manually flipping and reinserting pages for double sided prints—duplex printing takes care of this task smoothly.
The results?
Cleaner and more professional looking documents compared to their one sided counterparts, now available in seconds or less with the Taskalfa 3554ci series.
If your current printer lacks duplex printing, it might be time to consider the investment in a Kyocera Taskalfa series model for enhanced productivity.
The long term benefits in time and cost savings for you and your business make it a wise choice.
Scanning each page individually improves accuracy and speeds up the turnaround time for your scanning tasks.
Processing and organising multiple page scans take longer, and there’s a risk of overlooking important details when the images are combined.
Save yourself time and ensure accuracy by adopting the practice of scanning each page individually.
This not only improves accuracy but also speeds up the turnaround time for your scanning tasks.
Don’t leave efficiency to chance—embrace the best practice of scanning one page at a time for optimal results in organising your digital documents.
The N up setting for multiple pages
For electronic document storage efficiency, the “N-up” setting proves to be a game changer.
This feature allows you to print multiple pages on a single sheet, conserving both paper and computer storage space, a function available through Kyocera Mobile Print.
Embracing the “N-up” setting not only benefits those with limited physical storage but also saves valuable time when urgent document printing is required.
The Kyocera Taskalfa 3554ci, a powerful multifunctional printer, smoothly incorporates duplex printing, making it perfect for any business seeking to improve productivity.

I would like to express my thanks for the excellent service I received from the service technician who resolved my jammed printer.
His persistence and expertise resulted in the discovery of a tiny piece of torn paper that eluded discovery for nearly 30mins.
This caused the printer to constantly trigger a jam error.
The cost of the service was well worth the result.
Many thanks, Anthony Torrens.
