Editorial note
The OKI B4600N PS printer stands out for its high performance, offering a printing speed of 26 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 600 x 1200 DPI, thus ensuring prints of exceptional clarity. This makes it an ideal choice for daily use in demanding professional environments. Additionally, its 250-sheet paper capacity allows for handling a large volume of documents without frequent interruptions, which is an asset for users with high printing needs. However, some drawbacks must be considered. The lack of color printing and duplex functionality can be limiting for those who need colored documents or who are looking to optimize their paper consumption. Furthermore, the limited compatibility with operating systems, particularly the lack of support for Macs, and the 32 MB internal memory, which may seem insufficient for more complex tasks, could also pose problems for some users. In terms of design, although the printer is functional, its weight of 9000 g can make transportation impractical. Finally, the reduced energy consumption in economy mode is a positive point, contributing to savings and a reduced environmental impact. Overall, the OKI B4600N PS offers good value for money, particularly for those looking for a fast and efficient printer for daily use, despite some limitations in terms of features.Score details
