Gestetner C7116 Toner Cartridges

Gestetner C7116 Printer Review

There are times when users need a compact machine for small office use, but they still want the benefit of color laser quality. The Gestetner C7116 is a great solution, with a fairly small frame that will suit individuals, and a C7116dn version that includes duplexing and networking for small shared environments. Replacing Gestetner C7116 printer toner cartridges may get a bit expensive, however.

The C7116 can produce documents at a sharp resolution of up to 1200 dpi, though the 600 dpi setting is the default, and may help reduce the Gestetner C7116 toner costs. Print speeds are around 20 pages per minute for black and 16 pages per minute for color, which will be quite fast for personal use, but might start to seem slow in a networked office of multiple users. The first page out time is 15.5 seconds.

The design of the C7116 is compact, but not exactly small. It measures 16.5x21.1x15.5 inches, and weighs 68.3 pounds, so don't expect to move it around easily. The standard paper capacity of 530 sheets, plus a 100-sheet bypass tray, is quite generous, especially given the price and compact design. It is also built to expand, however, and can reach a maximum of 1,690 sheets of paper capacity with the addition of upgrades. There are also options for an internal hard drive and wireless support, among others.

Gestetner C7116 toner cartridges are fairly affordable, but the fact that there are four toners to replace can really start to add up, especially for an individual. Each of the Gestetner C7116 toner cartridges have a capacity of 5,000 pages, so they will last for quite a while.

With sharp quality and solid speeds out of the box, the Gestetner C7116 is an impressive choice for smaller spaces. Buyers will like the flexibility that allows for expansion in the future as well.
