Manual of product B730DN
Editorial note
The OKI B730DN printer stands out for its impressive performance, notably a printing speed of 50 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI. These features make it an ideal choice for demanding work environments, where speed and quality are paramount. Additionally, the automatic duplex printing feature helps optimize paper usage, thereby contributing to waste reduction. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. Limited compatibility with operating systems, particularly the lack of support for recent versions of Mac, may restrict its use for some users. Furthermore, the printer does not have Wi-Fi connectivity, which can make installation less flexible. Although its printing speed is high, the 38-second warm-up time could frustrate those seeking instant prints. Finally, with a weight of 23.2 kg, moving and installing it can be challenging, especially in tight workspaces. Regarding power consumption, the printing mode at 904 W is relatively high, which could lead to increased operating costs. Despite these drawbacks, the maximum paper capacity of 1800 sheets and laser printing technology offer good value for money, making the OKI B730DN an interesting choice for users looking for a reliable and high-performing printer.Score details
