Okidata, Doctor Jones!
We’ve all seen ‘em—those flimsy domestic printers they’re hawking in the big box stores. Have you got one in your home? You fool! Those aren’t really printers; they’re more like temporary housing units for your ink cartridges. They’re too delicate and temperamental for serious print jobs. But hey, maybe you don’t have any serious print jobs. Maybe Baby’s First Desktop Printer is perfectly sufficient for your needs. Hmn? Is it? No?
Well alright, then; here comes the rugged Okidata Digital B4600 Black and White Laser Printer to kick your fragile little princess printer off the desk and onto the floor, where it’s gonna shatter into a hundred teeny pieces that will each individually go crying to its mommy.
This speedy contraption will buzz through big print jobs like a chainsaw, except it prints them instead of sawing them in half. We just mean “like a chainsaw” in that it’s fast. Like twenty-seven pages a minute fast.
But it’s not just fast; it’s also rugged. This tuff little inkslinger is rated for a monthly duty cycle of 40,000 pages. Do you print that many pages? Because if so, two things: First, this might be the printer for you. Second, you’re using too much paper, slow down for crying out loud.
Its rapid start-up routine means it belches forth its first printed page within five seconds of your hitting the power button. And then it’s all business all day long after that, as it spews page after page of whatever the heck it is you seem to want to print so much of, until you finally tell it to stop.
Seriously, what are you printing so much of?
