The Dell Laser Printer 1600n is a 166 MHz monochrome laser multifunctional device that combines printing, faxing, copying, scanning, and an entire array of other features into a single, cost effective unit. It all comes in one network friendly package that is intended to provide all the power of four devices to an entire office without the cost of multiple, individual units.
With speeds of up to 20 pages per minute for both printing and copying when using letter sized paper, the Dell Laser Printer 1600n is the perfect tool for smaller offices with small to medium sized outputs. It also boasts a footprint small enough to make it home office friendly, along with an affordable price tag.
Print resolution is an acceptable 600 x 600 dots per inch, 1200 Image Quality, which means black and white text will come out perfectly, and charts and graphs will look presentable. The Dell Laser Printer 1600n also supports color scanning with 24 bit depth color, and 600 x 1200 dots per inch optical resolution, and a high quality 4800 dot per inch interpolated resolution.
As a stand alone fax machine, the Dell Laser Printer 1600n does well with its built in Super G3 fax modem that is capable of sending and receiving faxes at speeds of up to 3 seconds per page. It is capable of sending a color fax but, due to its lack of color printing ability, it cannot receive them.
The Dell Laser Printer 1600n operates with a single 250 sheet capacity paper tray that should be more than sufficient for small office demands but, if output is high and down time due to paper refills must be set at an absolute low, an additional 250 sheet tray is available for purchase and incorporation into the product. With only a single sheet multi purpose slot, this brings the maximum potential paper capacity to 500 sheets.
The single sheet slot isn't without its own benefits. This one pass manual feed option allows special paper sizes and thicknesses, such as envelopes, letterhead, or transparencies, to be compatible with the Dell Laser Printer 1600n. For custom greeting cards and other double sided media types, a manual duplex mode can be programmed to assist you in making two sided workloads with the proper number order.
A reduction ratio of a minimum of 25% allows for a 4 onto 1 feature that lets you shrink and squeeze four full size pages worth of input data onto a single sheet, saving paper and money. Enlargement ratios max out at an impressive 400% and can be selected in single percent increments.
Dell is a company built on customer service, and their warranty not only covers hardware failure for twelve months, but also includes a year of next business day on site repair service, furthering the Dell Laser Printer 1600n's status as a safe buy, though, with a 15,000 sheet maximum monthly duty cycle, it would be hard to wear this unit out. Sporting the full power of a network laser printer combined with a handful of additional hardware, this MFC would make a great investment.
