Dell B3460dn Toner Cartridges

Dell B3460dn Printer Review

The Dell B3460dn monochrome laser printer keeps things simple and compact, providing up to 50 pages per minute at a reasonable purchase price. It includes duplexing and wired networking support, and even some basic compatibility with mobile devices. Buyers can choose high-capacity Dell B3460dn printer toner supplies for a lower cost per page.

Sometimes referred to as simply the B3460, this model's automatic duplexing and networking garner the letters "dn" designation. With the ability to print on both sides of the page, users can save on paper costs, even up to 50%. With a Gigabit ethernet port included, it can be shared among many users with fast response times. Wi-Fi support is available as an affordable upgrade.

Though the unit is rated for a maximum monthly duty cycle of up to 100,000 pages per month, the recommended range is 2,500-6,000 pages. With a standard input paper capacity of 650 sheets, it will do well in a small office, but it can be expanded to a maximum of 2,300 pages for those who need the extra capacity.

Reviewers were a little unimpressed by the B3460dn's output quality. Text was rated to be at the low end of its class, with graphics just average. Photos weren't rated very highly either, with reviewers recommending it mainly for everyday office usage.

Toners come in multiple capacities to help buyers control costs. The standard capacity of Dell B3460dn toner cartridges is 2,500 pages, but larger versions can provide up to 8,000 and 20,000 pages. These high-capacity Dell B3460dn toner cartridges are the better value, as they lower the cost per page significantly.

The features and output quality of the B3460dn are generally not as impressive as its speed, but that is its main draw anyway. Buyers who want fast speeds at an affordable price will find it to be a good buy, as long as they use high-capacity Dell B3460dn toner to bring operating costs down.
