THE SHORT ANSWER

Our take

The Konica Minolta magicolor 5670EN is a discontinued, single-function color printer built around a relatively fast published A4 rating and several wired interfaces. Its archive specification lists up to 35 ppm in both monochrome and color, a 250-sheet cassette plus 100-sheet manual feed, and a 250-sheet output capacity. The standard configuration is not automatically duplex capable: the duplexer is optional. Treat the exact fitted unit, rather than a family description, as the purchase being evaluated. The saved materials do not establish present offers, supplies, or a recommended monthly range.

Consider it for

A buyer comparing legacy color workgroup printers who can verify the exact configuration, optional duplex hardware, and current unit condition..

Look elsewhere if

This is a poor fit if you need an out-of-box automatic duplexer, an all-in-one, Wi-Fi, current manufacturer support, or a documented monthly workload recommendation.

Pros & cons

What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.

What works in its favor

  • The archived exact-model specifications list up to 35 ppm A4 for both color and monochrome output.
  • Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, and parallel are documented, giving older wired setups several connection choices.
  • A standard 350-sheet feed combines the 250-sheet tray and 100-sheet manual feed.

What to weigh up

  • Automatic two-sided printing requires an optional duplex unit, whose presence must be verified on a particular machine.
  • Konica Minolta marks the model discontinued, while current toner, parts, and support availability are not established here.
  • The saved specification gives no recommended monthly range, so the speed rating cannot stand in for workload guidance.

What the features mean for you

Color output for a wired office

Konica Minolta's archived page identifies the 5670EN as a color laser printer and lists Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, and a parallel interface. That makes the model relevant to a wired office that needs color but already has separate scanning or copying tools. It does not make it a network multifunction machine: the saved source describes printing, not copy, scan, or fax functions. A buyer should start by matching those basic jobs and connections to the actual desk or print queue, then evaluate the legacy equipment questions separately.

A published speed with a defined paper path

The archive rates the model at up to 35 pages per minute on A4 for both monochrome and color. It also lists a 250-sheet cassette and a 100-sheet manual feed, for 350 standard input sheets, with a 250-sheet output capacity. These specifications help describe the printer's paper routine, but an advertised maximum does not predict every page or job. The figures also say nothing by themselves about a recommended monthly workload. Since no comparable recommendation is saved, organizations should not treat the ppm rating as proof that a particular sustained queue is appropriate.

Duplex depends on the installed option

The archived specification describes duplex printing as optional. A listing for the model therefore cannot establish that automatic two-sided printing is present in the unit being considered. Ask for a photo of the duplex assembly or an exact configuration record, and confirm that the driver recognizes it. Without that add-on, the purchase should be evaluated as lacking standard automatic page turning. Manual handling may remain possible in a print workflow, but the saved source does not document a manual duplex mode, so this review does not promise one.

Exact setup matters more on a discontinued model

Konica Minolta marks the 5670EN discontinued. The archived documents establish original features, not the state of a particular used printer, its consumables, service parts, firmware, or operating-system support today. The historical product code and Amazon ASIN in the candidate record were not shown to identify a current exact listing, so the purchase path is a tagged search using the full model name. Before buying, request the product label, page count, sample print, installed options, and a clear account of included supplies and return terms.

Choose it for its specific legacy strengths

This model's clearest strengths are color output, a substantial standard feed for an older desktop design, fast published A4 output, and several wired interfaces. Its clearest costs are optional duplex hardware, discontinued status, and missing evidence about present support and workload recommendations. A small business with an existing maintenance path and a verified duplexer could find the feature mix relevant. A buyer who wants a new, supported device, wireless sharing, or predictable supply access should compare newer models instead. The saved record makes no claim about price, stock, sales, or the condition of a listing.

What else to compare

The HP Color LaserJet 4600 is another legacy color printer with a 600-sheet standard input but no confirmed built-in Ethernet for the base model. The Brother HL-L3210CW offers built-in wireless with a smaller tray and no automatic duplex.

Before you buy

Does every magicolor 5670EN automatically print both sides?

No. Konica Minolta lists the duplexer as optional, so the installed unit must be checked before relying on automatic two-sided printing.

How much input does the standard model hold?

The saved archive lists a 250-sheet cassette and a 100-sheet manual feed, for 350 standard input sheets.

What is its recommended monthly volume?

The archived exact-model specification in the packet does not state a comparable recommended monthly range.

The decision

Consider the 5670EN only when color speed and wired interfaces justify evaluating a discontinued unit. Confirm the optional duplexer, parts, supplies, and actual condition; the saved evidence does not establish current availability or recommended workload.
