A small office with demanding needs deserves a versatile and robust multifunction printer like the Oki MB471dnw, which is praised for its fast print speeds and lower operating costs. Environment-friendly and easy to use, the Oki MB471dnw wireless A4 multifunction mono printer uses the company's innovative LED technology and simplifies the workflow and cable clutter by offering wireless connectivity. However, setbacks like the high purchase price, operating noise, and lack of colour printing capability make some users think twice about purchasing it.
Design
The Oki MB471dnw printer features a matte plastic frame that measures 455mm tall, 425mm deep, and 427mm wide, and weighs approximately 20Kg. It has 256MB of RAM and runs on a 330MHz processor. The flatbed scanner's resolution is 600dpi with a 590-sheet RADF document input device. Two RJ11 ports are available for the 33.6Kbps fax, which has four-megabyte memory for 200 pages. The full front operator panel has a white backlit LCD panel, alphanumeric keys and one-touch operational and navigational buttons. For connectivity, the MB471dnw mono laser printer offers a USB 2.0 host IF, a USB 2.0 device IF, and Ethernet.
Advantages
Document production is hastened while reducing downtime because of the reversing automatic document feeder, 33ppm print speed, and one-touch buttons. The Oki MB-471dnw black and white multifunction printer is Wi-Fi-ready, so setting up a wireless connection is quick and easy. The QWERTY keypad simplifies the input of email addresses. Users won't have to buy additional devices because the Oki MB471dnw mono multifunction printer already has built-in fax, a scanner, and a copier. The black Oki MB471dnw toner is very economical, offering a yield of approximately 7,000 pages and working with the printer’s Toner Save function to reduce toner consumption.
Disadvantages
The Oki MB471dnw workgroup printer is expensive to purchase and upgrade for additional paper capacity. Only up to ten users can be connected to the device because of outdated processor speed and lack of memory expansions. Operating noise can go up to 55dBA, which can be disruptive to a small office. Despite the compact size, the Oki MB471dnw MFP is heavy.
