Key Advantages
The OKI MB480 provides a compact all-in-one solution reducing the need for multiple devices in the office. Its digital LED technology leads to consistent high-quality prints with reduced maintenance compared to laser printers. The 33.6 Kbps fax modem ensures fast and reliable fax communication integrating smoothly with telephone lines. A respectable print speed of 20 ppm boosts productivity in busy office environments. The device supports multiple paper sizes and types, increasing versatility for various document handling needs. Its user-friendly control panel and display enhance ease of operation and monitoring of device status.
Limitations
As an older model, the OKI MB480 lacks modern network connectivity options like Ethernet or Wi-Fi, limiting its use to direct connections only. The memory capacity at 4 MB is relatively low by current standards, restricting complex print jobs or large fax storage. Color printing is absent, which might not satisfy offices requiring color document capabilities. The fax modem speed is lower compared to newer machines, potentially causing slower fax transmissions. The flatbed scanner design limits automatic document feeding, requiring manual placement for each scan. Replacement parts and consumables might be harder to acquire due to the product’s age and discontinued status.
