Our goal: Make Our Products Truly User Friendly for Everyone

Konica Minolta has a Universal Design Committee dedicated to accessible printing. The group is composed of members from each discrete R&D Division as well as the Design Division.

In addition, Konica Minolta staffs Universal Design Workgroups (LCD Panel Workgroup, Options Workgroup, Applications etc.) within the Universal Design Committee to focus on accessibility of each function and to assure a constant specification across the product line.

Konica Minolta has a total of 28 evaluators, representing a diverse cross-section of disabilities who evaluate our products to make sure that the multi function printer meets their ADA accessibility requirements.

During the evaluation process, if the product specification does not meet with their approval (in the middle of the design process), the target product does not move onto the Product Design stage. In addition, if the evaluation does not pass after final evaluation, the product will not be launched. Therefore, our customers can be assured that by the time our product comes to market, it will meet the Section 508 accessibility requirements for all users.
