Oki have produced a lovely small entry level LED printer, in the form of the Okidata C3200, for those people who have a reasonable print demand of 50,000 pages every month. Do not be put off by the branding of this machine as entry level, as this printer is more than capable of showing a multi-faceted attitude and cope with the demands of a reasonably creative office. It should be noted, that what you see is what you get with this printer and there are no options to upgrade at a later date. The toner options on this printer are also relatively limited with only one yield available. Okidata C3200 toner in black has a higher yield of 3,000 pages and then it drops down to 1,500 page yield for the three colours; cyan, magenta and yellow. One way to make sure this is not a problem in the office to always make sure a spare set is to hand and it is often cheaper to buy these in a bundle, even if colour is used relatively sparingly. There are a number of other consumable items with this printer including a full set of drums, a fuser unit and a transfer belt. This does mean a good administrator will need to advise the office on how to use this printer on a monthly basis and to perhaps invest in another larger printer if there is also a fair amount of colour work required on a regular basis. The printer is faster than a standard laser printer, as it uses LED technology. This is how it is able to print in a straight path and banner length material, up to 1.2 metres in total. The printer uses a standard USB connection and has an amazing installation wizard, which will get you up and running with no issues. The print speeds on the Okidata C3200n are 20 pages per minute for black and white and 12 pages per minute for colour. These are healthy for a printer of this size and will make sure people are not waiting around for the print to come out. In terms of the quality of print output, the printer is able to demonstrate clarity even on small text and the colour option can be manipulated with the photo enhance software, Oki have bundled with the printer. The resolution is 1200 x 600 dpi and really assists the printer when it comes to getting acceptable looking documents. The printer does not have any options for adding in an extra paper tray at a later date, with the printer offering 400 sheets as standard. The memory is 32 MB but this can be upgraded to 288 MB, with the use of either 64 MB or 256 MB DIMMS. Printer Overview
