Editorial note
The OKI B4500N printer stands out for its high printing speed of 24 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 2400 x 600 DPI, ensuring prints of exceptional clarity, ideal for professional use. Its maximum input capacity of 750 sheets allows for handling a large volume of documents without requiring frequent reloads, contributing to its daily efficiency. Additionally, its laser printing technology ensures precise and high-quality results. However, the product has some drawbacks. It is not compatible with Mac operating systems, which may limit its use for some users. The lack of duplex printing can also lead to higher paper consumption, which is not optimal for environmentally conscious users. Furthermore, the internal memory of 32 MB (expandable to 288 MB) may pose limitations when printing complex or large documents. Although the printing speed is satisfactory, it may seem lower than that of some competing models. Finally, its weight of 10 kg can make handling and moving the printer difficult in certain work environments. In terms of performance, the OKI B4500N offers good value for money, but users should be aware of the additional accessories needed to enhance its memory. Overall, this printer is suitable for office environments looking for a reliable and efficient device, but it may not be suitable for all users due to its limitations.Score details
