The Toshiba e-STUDIO479S Multifunction Printer is a 47 ppm mono A4 multifunction device designed for medium-to-large workgroups that require high-speed document processing and robust security within a compact physical footprint.

Print performance and efficiency define the core utility of this monochrome system, which delivers a first-print time of 6 seconds and a first-copy time of 6.75 seconds. The device maintains a consistent output speed of 47 pages per minute for A4 documents, ensuring that high-volume print jobs are completed without significant delays. For digital workflows, the integrated scanner achieves speeds of 49 images per minute, allowing teams to digitise physical records quickly. These speeds are supported by a hardware configuration featuring 2 GB of memory and a 128 GB Intelligent Storage Device (ISD), which manage complex print queues and data-heavy files effectively.

Paper handling capabilities allow the Toshiba e-STUDIO479S Multifunction Printer to scale according to the specific volume requirements of an office. The unit comes with a standard paper capacity of 650 sheets, but this can be expanded to a maximum paper capacity of 2,300 sheets to reduce the frequency of manual refills during peak periods. The internal cassette supports paper weights between 60 and 120 g/m² for standard A6 to A4 sizes, while the bypass tray accommodates media ranging from 76 x 148 mm up to 215 x 359 mm at weights up to 216 g/m². Automatic duplex printing is included as a standard feature, enabling two-sided output to reduce paper consumption.

Security specifications and connectivity options ensure the device integrates safely into modern corporate networks. The inclusion of a built-in TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) security chip provides hardware-based protection for encryption keys and sensitive data. For network integration, the system supports 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet with IPv6 compatibility, alongside High Speed USB 2.0 and wireless connectivity via IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n/ac. Mobile printing is facilitated through AirPrint, Mopria Print Service, and the e-STUDIO Print & Scan application, allowing users to manage tasks from various mobile devices.

Physical dimensions and hardware attributes make this model suitable for space-constrained environments where a full-sized floor-standing unit is impractical. The device measures 479 x 453 x 514 mm and weighs 21.3 kg, allowing it to be placed on standard desks or cabinets while still providing professional 1200 x 1200 dpi print resolution. The system also includes fax capability as standard, consolidating printing, scanning, copying, and faxing into a single monochrome workstation.

Medium-to-large workgroups that prioritise fast monochrome output and hardware-level security will find this model fits their operational needs. The Toshiba e-STUDIO479S Multifunction Printer is ideal for legal, administrative, or medical environments that handle high volumes of text-based documents and require a TPM 2.0 chip for data integrity. This model is not suitable for creative departments or marketing teams that require A3 media support or colour printing capabilities.
