Editorial note
The OKI B430d printer stands out for its solid performance and practical features. With a printing speed of 30 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, it perfectly meets the needs of professional users, ensuring high-quality prints. Additionally, its built-in duplex printing functionality optimizes paper usage and helps reduce waste. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The lack of color printing may be a hindrance for users with visual needs, while the internal memory capacity of 64 MB could limit performance when printing complex documents. Furthermore, the lack of network connectivity could pose a problem in modern work environments where printer sharing is essential. Its weight of 10.8 kg also makes mobility difficult, thus limiting usage flexibility. In terms of value for money, the OKI B430d offers good value with its 250-sheet paper capacity and a maximum monthly duty cycle of 50,000 pages. Although it is not without flaws, it remains a reliable option for those seeking a high-performing monochrome printer, despite some limitations in connectivity and features.Score details
