Manual of product Microline 420
Editorial note
The OKI Microline 420 printer stands out with its impressive printing speed of 570 characters per second, a major asset for those seeking increased productivity. Its durability is also noteworthy, with a print head capable of operating up to 400 million characters, ensuring prolonged use without interruptions. However, some drawbacks must be considered. The lack of color printing may limit its use for documents requiring graphic elements or colorful presentations. Additionally, its print resolution of 240 x 216 DPI may not satisfy users in search of optimal image quality. The restricted compatibility with older operating systems could also pose issues for users with recent technologies. In terms of design, the printer features compact dimensions, making it easy to integrate into various workspaces, although its weight of 7430 g may complicate relocation. Finally, while its noise level of 56 dB is considered reasonable, it may be perceived as bothersome in noise-sensitive work environments. In summary, the OKI Microline 420 offers solid performance and good value for its price, but its limitations in color and compatibility may not suit all users.Score details
