Dell 2155cdn Printer Review

Overview
The Dell 2155cdn is a professional grade, multi-function laser printer. Though it is a bit more expensive than some of your other options, it is also quite a bit more affordable than many of them. What’s more, the level of performance it’s capable of exceeds the level of performance of many comparably priced printers. Though there are often a few things we don’t care for when we’re reviewing printers, in this case, there is only one real drawback, which we’ll discuss in more detail momentarily. Before that, though, we’re going to take a look at some of the many things we like about this printer.

Pros
The first aspect of the Dell 2155cdn’s production capability we’d like to discuss is its maximum monthly duty cycle. For those of you who may be unfamiliar with that term, a printer’s maximum monthly duty cycle is the number of pages you can print with it every month without it over heating or giving you some other kind of problem. In this case, that maximum monthly duty cycle is forty thousand pages, which is obviously quite a bit more than most home users or small businesses will ever need to print. Therefore, we would also recommend it for some medium and large businesses.

The fact that this printer is multi-functional is an advantage, too. Having your copier, fax machine, printer, and scanner combined into one machine will save you lots of space in your office and lots of money in your budget. What’s more, it will accomplish both of the goals without requiring you to sacrifice anything by way of performance. As a matter of fact, with print seeds of up to twenty-four pages per minute and a resolution of 600 X 600 dpi, you should find this printer’s performance more than adequate for the vast majority of your office printing needs. The only exception we would note is that the resolution of this printer isn’t high enough for professional quality photographs.

Cons
One thing we haven’t mentioned yet about the Dell 2155cdn is that it’s a little larger than some of the other multi-functional laser printers in its price range. To be sure, it’s capable of higher performance levels, too, so you have to ultimately decide which factor is most important to you. In the final analysis, either you have the space or you don’t. If you do, then you will discover a printer capable of delivering levels of performance which make It well worth its price.
