Editorial note

The Dell B1260dn printer stands out for its solid performance and print quality. With a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, it ensures sharp and precise prints, ideal for professional needs. Its print speed of 28 pages per minute is satisfactory for daily use, although some very busy work environments may find this a bit limited. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing feature is a valuable asset, promoting a more eco-friendly management of resources. However, several drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits usage flexibility, making the printer less convenient for users who prefer a wireless solution. With only 64 MB of internal memory, slowdowns may occur when printing large or complex documents. Furthermore, the weight of 7200 g makes the device difficult to move, which can pose problems for those looking to rearrange their workspace. Finally, the absence of color printing may be a hindrance for users needing colored documents for presentations or marketing materials. In terms of value for money, the Dell B1260dn proves to be competitive, offering interesting features for its price. Although the accessible technical support could be improved, the user manual is available to assist new users. Overall, this printer is perfectly suited for those seeking a reliable and fast printing solution, while being aware of its limitations.
