As part of Toshiba’s e-STUDIO4520c/3520c/2820c family, 
the 

e-STUDIO3520c

 is the mid-range unit in this office color 

MFP large-format family, and is designed for multi-user 
offices and mid-sized workgroups. Introduced in July 2008, 
the 

e-STUDIO3520c

 series is among Toshiba's newest and 

fastest products that print, copy, scan and fax while 
incorporating the company's next generation e-BRIDGE 
controller which is designed to provide more efficient 
processing and multi-tasking. The 

e-STUDIO3520c

 also 

offers a new Replaceable Unit design, which is intended to 
keep maintenance downtime to an absolute minimum. 

BERTL recently tested the 

e-STUDIO3520c

 which was 

developed completely in-house by Toshiba with a list price 
of $16,999 (as a digital copier/network printer). The 

e-

STUDIO3520c

 is the high-end system in the series and is 

rated at 35 ppm monochrome and 35 ppm color, with a 
maximum paper capacity of up to 3,700 sheets. 

The new Toshiba high-volume color line features a large, 
adjustable 8.5” Super WVGA touch screen for quick and 
easy access to copying, printing, scanning, faxing and e-
filing features, and a new two-part developer delivery 
system that automatically replenishes developer into the 
system as new toner is introduced, eliminating the need to 
install or maintain developer for the projected life of the 
MFP. 

Toshiba’s next generation e-BRIDGE controller offers 
enhanced document security with its Advanced Encryption 
Standard (AES) hard disk encryption, IPv6, IPSec, 
SNMPv3 and 802.1x network authentication, protecting the 
document workflow all the way to the network. The 

e-

STUDIO3520c

 series includes Secure PDF, enabling users 

to password-protect documents when creating scanned 
PDFs, to prevent unauthorized viewing or printing. In 
addition, the new color MFP series support printing from 
and scanning to a USB flash storage drive, and support 
full-color banner printing of sizes as large as 47 inches 
wide and 12 feet long.  

It’s also important to note that while the Toshiba 

e-

STUDIO3520c

 features standard network printing, it may be 

equipped with an optional EFI Fiery controller (Fiery Image 
Controller System 8e).  This controller which is suitable for 
customers with more demanding printing applications, such 
as graphic-intensive applications will be available early 
next year. 

In the following test report, BERTL takes an in-depth look 
at the e-STUDIO3520c, testing and evaluating its 
productivity, image quality and ease-of-use.
