Manual of product B6500N
Editorial note
The OKI B6500N printer stands out for its impressive performance, particularly with a printing speed of 45 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 print quality are paramount. Additionally, its built-in duplex printing contributes to more sustainable practices by reducing paper consumption. Although the OKI B6500N offers many advantages, it also has some drawbacks. Its power consumption in printing mode, reaching 1200 W, can lead to significant energy costs over the long term. Furthermore, its weight of 21 kg makes it less mobile, which can pose challenges during installation or relocation. Finally, the limited compatibility with Mac systems may not suit all users. In terms of user experience, the printer is appreciated for its ease of use and out-of-the-box network connectivity. However, it is important to note that the 533 MHz processor may restrict performance when executing more complex tasks. Overall, the OKI B6500N represents good value for money, offering high-performance features and a large input capacity of 1800 sheets, although aspects such as energy consumption and mobility need to be taken into consideration.Score details
