Manuals of product 5230n
Editorial note
The Dell 5230n printer stands out for its high printing speed, reaching 45 pages per minute, as well as an impressive resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, ensuring prints of exceptional clarity. With a maximum input capacity of 4000 sheets, it is particularly suited for demanding work environments, allowing for the management of a large volume of documents without interruption. Additionally, its reduced energy consumption in sleep mode and eco mode contributes to significant energy savings, which is a considerable advantage for environmentally conscious users. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The lack of color printing can be a hindrance for those who need visually appealing documents, such as presentations or illustrated reports. Furthermore, the absence of duplex printing functionality requires manual handling, which can lead to increased paper usage. Weighing 18,400 g, while ensuring a certain robustness, can pose mobility and installation issues in confined workspaces. Finally, the internal memory of 128 MB may seem limited for users dealing with large documents. In summary, the Dell 5230n offers solid performance and good value for money, especially for users needing a fast and reliable printer. However, its limitations in terms of features and mobility may restrict its appeal to some users.Score details
