Dell 1700
As much as it was hard to throw our previous inkjet away, welcoming our new Dell Laser Printer 1700 was quite easy. One of the reasons we opted for this printer was its size. Our office isn’t large and our previous printer took up a lot of space, so we really needed a design that saved that much needed room. The Dell 1700 didn’t need a separate table and we were able to squeeze it on one of the desk tops.
Setting up the printer wasn’t much of a hassle either. We didn’t need to go through the printed manual as the poster that came with it was sufficient. The ease of installation is mainly attributed to pre-loaded printer drivers that help Dell systems to easily detect and identify the printer, thus start printing documents only a few minutes after installation.
As for its main functionality, this printer prints up to 24 A4-sized pages per minute, however, the printer is always slower while printing the first page of many during a printing session. Also, being used to the quiet of an inkjet, this printer seemed noisier to our ears in comparison, but nothing unbearable.
All that aside, thanks to its 1200 dpi resolution, the printer produces clear and distinct text, regardless of how small the font we defined was. As for the printing of images, the printed graphics are quite attractive, even though they take more time in printing, which is approx. 3.5 pages per minute.
The Dell 1700 has a paper tray that can handle up to 250 sheets, however, the printer’s paper capacity can reach 800 with the help of an optional paper drawer that can fit up to 550 sheets at a time. Other media, such as envelopes and card stock, can also be used by this printer. Card paper can be fed using the normal paper tray, whereas envelopes and thicker media must be fed through the back exit of the printer.
In addition, worrying about this printer’s toner is something no one needs to do for a long time. The replacement cartridges allow the range of 3000-9000 pages to be printed, thus bringing down the cost of each printed page to as low as 1.6 cents (the toner costs about $90).
The Dell 1700 has proved on more than one occasion to be a valuable asset to our office. It can also be just as important to others too, if they’re into steady, monochrome laser printing with high quality printing.
