Of all the color laser printers on the market, the Okidata C3600 is one of the better values available. Designed for homes or small offices, versus the
Okidata C9600 toner printer is designed for medium to large business, this unit can handle medium size print jobs. With its 400 MHz processor, this unit is a powerhouse. Printing exclusively with black Okidata C3600 toner, it can produce up to 15 pages per minute. When printing with the color toner, up to 12 pages per minute can be produced. Though these speeds are not the fastest on the market, they will provide efficiency for offices.
Weighing just less than 50 pounds, with the
Oki toner installed, one strong person or two average people should be able to move the C3600 with ease. Its frame is compact measuring 11.4x14.7x18.8 inches, allowing users to put it just about anywhere in the office without taking up too much space. It connects via USB port so image transfers are speedy. The C3600n model comes standard with ethernet built-in so multiple co-workers can be connected simultaneously.
The standard memory is 128 MB; however, for users that need more proverbial space, the memory can be upgraded to 640 MB. Equipped with four Okidata C3600 toner cartridges, color prints are possible. These toners are cyan, magenta, yellow and black. The starter printer toner that comes with the machine upon purchase can yield 1,500 pages for black and 1,000 pages of color. However, replacement Okidata C3600 toner cartridges can yield 2,500 and 2,000 for black and color, respectively.
When purchasing replacement toners, third party vendors sell remanufactured Oki C3600 toner that will cost much less than the OEM while still holding the same page yield and producing the same high quality. When it comes down to it, the C3600 laser printer is the best value out there. It has a low cost per page and provides efficiency and professional-style prints every time.
