The Epson AcuLaser C3800N colour laser printer is aimed at businesses that need a quiet and user-friendly printer for their document printing needs. The Epson AcuLaser C3800N printer is a colour workhorse which is reliable and fast. It offers colour and direct-print options, making it versatile enough for both serious and creative professionals. Its networking features make it perfect for workgroups. Unfortunately, the high initial cost and expensive toner cartridges might make budget-conscious users look for other options.
Design
This tall and sturdy printer features an understated design that makes it suitable for professional environments. The AcuLaser C3800N is fairly compact sideways, measuring 16.5 inches wide and 22.6 inches deep, and easy-to-use because of the built-in status display screen, which serves as the centrepiece of the control panel. There is enough room for the 550-sheet optional paper cassette with the standard 250-sheet cassette and 150-sheet multi-purpose tray at the bottom. The Epson AcuLaser C-3800N printer runs on a 600MHz processor with 128MB of memory.
Advantages
The Epson C3800N laser printer is quiet, reasonably fast, and offers versatile paper handling, with a maximum paper input capacity of 2350 sheets, making the Epson AcuLaser C3800N quite efficient for bulk printing. Upgrading to the 1024MB memory means faster print speeds and more efficient performance for bigger workgroups. Documents with graphics look more presentable at 4800dpi. Users may print directly from a USB flash drive with the Epson AcuLaser C3800N. As a departmental printer, it can be configured for utmost security so users can print confidential documents with ease.
Disadvantages
Price is the most notable drawback of the Epson AcuLaser C3800N; its toner cartridges are expensive, too. Another setback is the weight of the C3800N, which makes it difficult to lift and move around. The device is quite tall (20 inches high), so it needs to be placed on a desk or cabinet with ample headroom. The AcuLaser C3800N printer could have been better if it had Wi-Fi. This printer lacks an actual duplexer, which needs to be purchased separately.
