Manual of product B6500DN
Editorial note
The OKI B6500DN printer stands out with its impressive printing speed of 45 pages per minute, ideal for demanding work environments. Its maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI ensures prints of exceptional clarity, perfect for professional documents. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing feature optimizes resource use, thereby contributing to the reduction of paper waste. Its input capacity of 1800 sheets allows for handling a large volume of documents without the need for frequent replenishment, thus providing good value for users with intensive printing needs. However, the OKI B6500DN has some drawbacks. First, it is not compatible with Mac systems, which may limit its use for some users. Furthermore, its power consumption in printing mode is relatively high, reaching up to 1200 W, which can lead to significant electricity costs in the long run. Its weight of 21 kg can also complicate its installation and handling, especially in tight spaces. Finally, although its printing speed is fast, the 8-second delay for the first page may be perceived as long in environments where every second counts. Additionally, the lack of color printing options may disappoint those who need more graphic documents. In summary, the OKI B6500DN is a high-performing and efficient printer, well-suited for high printing needs, but it may not be suitable for all users due to certain limitations.Score details
