Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Kyocera TASKalfa 8353ci is actually for

Most equipment pages just tell you what a device does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a high-volume color production environment — in-house print room, large marketing department, central reprographics for a multi-site company.
  • You print 25,000-50,000 pages a month with serious color volume and want a 450,000-page duty cycle for headroom.
  • You need A3 (11x17) and 12x18 color at the top of this chassis family — 83 ppm black / 70 ppm color.
  • You need EFI Fiery — the optional Fiery Print System 16 turns this into a real production color device for spot-color matching, PDF/X, and VDP workflows.
  • You scan large batches of duplex originals daily — the standard 270-sheet DSDP runs 220 ipm duplex.
  • You need TPM, Secure Boot, IPsec, HDD encryption, and Common Criteria EAL2 for legal, gov, or healthcare workflows.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 18,000-25,000 pages a month — engine is overbuilt for that, you'll just stretch the lease.
  • You need booklet finishing — the BF-730 or BF-9100 saddle-stitch unit bolts on with the DF-7110 or DF-7130 4,000-sheet finisher.
  • You're replacing a Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C7780i or Ricoh IM C8000 — slots in at similar speed and color quality.
  • You don't need Fiery — the standard Kyocera controller is fine for most office color workflows.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You print under 15,000 pages a month — you're paying for the top of the production color lineup and using a fraction of it. Get a 6054ci, 7054ci, or 7353ci instead.
  • You don't need color — get the 9003i mono on the same chassis (90 ppm mono, lower per-page cost).
  • You only need A4 — the 8353ci's A3 capability and footprint are wasted.
  • You need a small footprint — this is a 29.5 x 32.4 x 48.6-inch floor unit before any finisher.
  • You don't have a 20-amp 120V circuit available — production-class units like this need real electrical; check your panel before ordering.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Kyocera TASKalfa 8353ci is the top-of-line A3 color laser production MFP in the 7353ci/8353ci chassis family. Built for in-house print rooms, large marketing departments, and central reprographics that need both high color volume and Fiery-grade color management. It runs at 83 ppm black and 70 ppm color on Letter, with a 4.9-second first print out in black and 6.1 in color, rated for 450,000 pages a month. Standard paper capacity is 4,150 sheets — dual 500-sheet trays plus dual 1,500-sheet trays plus a 150-sheet MPT — expandable to 7,650 sheets. The 270-sheet single-pass DSDP, 10.1-inch color touchscreen, Gigabit Ethernet, 4.5GB RAM, 8GB SSD, and 320GB HDD are all standard. The differentiator vs. the 7353ci is the optional EFI Fiery Print System 16 — if you do spot-color matching, PDF/X, variable-data printing, or any color-managed production workflow, the Fiery is the reason to spec the 8353ci. Finishing is serious: DF-7110 4,000-sheet (65-staple) or DF-7130 (100-staple) with optional BF-730 or BF-9100 booklet folder/trifold and PH-7A 2/3-hole punch. The thing buyers regret: skipping the Fiery to save on the invoice and then realizing six months in that the standard controller can't handle their RIP-heavy workflow. If color management matters, order Fiery day one.

Kyocera TASKalfa 8353ci, common questions

Yes, the Kyocera TASKalfa 8353ci ships with a starter toner cartridge. The starter black toner yields approximately 70,000–85,000 pages, while color toners (cyan, magenta, yellow) yield around 30,000–40,000 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement toners include the high-yield TK-8737K (black) and TK-8737C/M/Y (color) models. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The Kyocera TASKalfa 8353ci is a high-volume A3 color MFP with 83 ppm black/70 ppm color output, a 450,000-page monthly duty cycle, and optional Fiery color management for professional workflows.

For small offices, the MA6000ifx offers better value if color isn’t required.
