Manual of product ES8430dn
Editorial note
The OKI ES8430dn printer stands out for its fast printing speed, reaching 32 pages per minute in black and 16 pages in color. This performance is particularly appreciated in demanding work environments where productivity is essential. Additionally, its built-in duplex printing function helps save paper and reduce printing costs while facilitating document management. The print quality is also remarkable, with a maximum resolution of 1200 x 600 DPI, ensuring clear and precise results. However, the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits usage flexibility, especially in environments where a wireless connection would be desirable. Furthermore, its weight of 40 kg can make the printer difficult to move, which can be problematic in small workspaces. Although its color printing speed is adequate, it remains lower than that of some competitors, which can slow down color printing tasks. Finally, the 90-second warm-up time may seem long for users requiring immediate prints. In terms of value, the OKI ES8430dn justifies its cost through its long-term performance, high paper capacity of 1460 sheets, and useful features such as Ethernet connectivity. The provided documentation, while comprehensive, could be improved in clarity to better assist less experienced users. Overall, this printer is robust and designed to withstand various conditions, but its weight should be considered during installation and use.Score details
