Manual of product B840dn
Editorial note
The OKI B840dn printer stands out for its high performance and practical features, especially for demanding work environments. With a printing speed of 40 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, it delivers superior quality results. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing feature and a maximum paper capacity of 1690 sheets help optimize resource use while reducing interruptions related to paper loading. However, some drawbacks are worth mentioning. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits usage flexibility, as users must physically connect via Ethernet to print. Furthermore, its weight of 28 kg can make transport and installation difficult, especially in tight spaces. The internal memory of 128 MB may also pose issues for complex print jobs, potentially leading to slowdowns. Finally, although the model is designed for black and white printing, the absence of color options may disappoint some users. Overall, the OKI B840dn is a robust printer that meets the needs of intensive use, thanks to its advanced features and speed. However, potential users should consider its limitations in connectivity and compatibility to determine if it meets their expectations.Score details
