Okidata B6250 Toner Cartridges

Okidata B6250 Printer Review

The Okidata B6250 is the base model in a series of small office laser printers that can print at moderately quick speeds of up to 30 pages per minute for monochrome documents. The additional B6250n and B6250dn models aren't drastically different from the base model, with the exception of network connectivity and duplexing for double-sided printing. With options to upgrade, long-lasting Okidata B6250 printer toner, and a host of control features, the B6250 series will benefit offices looking to increase day-to-day productivity.

The B6250 has the design to benefit large-volume offices, with a standard paper capacity of 400 pages that can be upgraded to a maximum of 1,500 pages by purchasing additional trays. The unit also comes with a 40 GB hard disk drive, and supports features such as Secure Print, Proof and Print, and Delayed Print that will allow users to control their workflow with security tools and priority printing for important jobs. Another element that helps this unit stand out among its competition is its above average output, which was tested to print sharp text and graphic projects with a resolution of 1200x1200 dpi.

The printer has an intuitively laid out, but simplistic, control panel that includes a 2-line monochrome LCD for status updates, a handful of buttons to navigate through menu settings and an LED that will alert users when toners are low. While users have the option to upgrade their device to include an interface for network printing and sharing, the B6250 initially only includes standard USB, parallel and serial ports for connectivity.

The machine will be easy to set up and maintain since it only uses one Okidata B6250 toner cartridge. Each replacement Oki B6250 toner cartridge has an adequate yield of 10,000 pages that can easily handle busy daily printing needs.

According to expert reviews, there's not much to the B6250 that can separate it from other affordable monochrome printers in its class, due to a simple control panel and minimal built-in connectivity. However, this device does provide the opportunity for users to increase their productivity and its satisfactory output makes it a reliable machine to have around the office.
