Manual of product C331dn
Editorial note
The OKI C331dn printer stands out for its ability to deliver high-quality prints with a maximum resolution of 1200 x 600 DPI, ideal for professional and personal documents. Its printing speed of 24 pages per minute in black and 22 pages in color allows for efficient management of daily printing tasks. Additionally, the built-in duplex printing feature contributes to a more eco-friendly approach by reducing paper consumption. With a maximum paper capacity of 880 sheets, this device meets the needs of users with high printing demands. However, the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits usage flexibility, especially in modern office environments where wireless connection is often preferred. Although the 128 MB internal memory is sufficient for common tasks, it may become inadequate for heavy printing, thus affecting performance. Furthermore, while the printing speed is acceptable, it may seem lower compared to other competing models that offer higher speeds. The weight of 22 kg can also pose challenges during relocation or installation, and the maximum output capacity of 150 sheets requires frequent interventions to empty the tray. Regarding writing scores, the user experience is overall satisfactory, with a score of 78, while performance is rated as acceptable with a score of 70. The design receives a score of 75; although functional, the weight may be an issue. The value for money is good with a score of 80, and features like duplex printing are well-rated with a score of 85. Ease of use is rated at 70, but the internal memory limits efficiency in certain situations. Finally, the documentation is very well received with a score of 90, facilitating product handling.Score details
