E514dw Printer Review
Expert review of the E514dw printer
The reasonable price, three-in-one functionality, and wireless printing feature make the Dell E514dw ideal for a home or micro office. It prints, copies, and scans, and its paper handling is just right for minimal usage. Connectivity options make it more versatile for a small workgroup, and mobile scanning and printing can help boost productivity and save time, but it lacks speed and the quality of text is sub par.
Design
The Dell E514dw has an understated look with a non-imposing build that measures 409mm wide, 398.5mm deep, and 316.5mm tall. It weighs 10.4Kg with the consumables. It connects easily to a computer via high-speed USB 2.0, while Ethernet enables easy sharing over a network. The operator panel has a two-line LCD screen, which clearly displays instructions and status messages. The E514dw runs on 64MB RAM, while a 266MHz processor powers it. The input sources are a 250-sheet input tray, 35-sheet ADF, and a single sheet feeder. The output bin can handle 100 sheets.
Advantages
It can easily copy, scan, and print with an automatic document feeder and a duplexer, which can minimise paper consumption. The print speeds are up to 26ppm in simplex, and 13ppm in duplex. Dell Printer Easy installer simplifies the set up process, and Dell Printer Hub is convenient for maintenance and specific printing tasks. Users can print on the go as the Dell E514dw supports mobile printing from iOS and Android devices. The environmentally friendly design ensures compliance with the restriction of hazardous substances and ENERGY Star standards. It is easy to upgrade the printer firmware and execute custom scan shortcuts with the one-click function of the Dell E514dw.
Disadvantages
The Dell E514dw lacks a fax machine. Text quality is below average. The memory and the paper capacity of the Dell E514dw are not upgradeable, and the processor may be sluggish for complex jobs.
