subject: A Short Examination Of 3115cn Printer By Dell [print this page] The Dell 3115cn printer does more for the workplace that just churn out prints. It's a 4-in-1 machine that prints, reproduces, scans and sends fax. Additionally, it's flexible enough to leave room for upgrading, which can meet the growing demands of the workplace in the future. And when used with Dell Color Laser 3115cn toner cartridges, your prints will come out better than you would ever imagined possible.
A 400 MHz processor resides in the heart of this machine, which measures 18.1 inches x 22.4 inches x 28.7 inches (width x depth x height). Such provides enough power to be able to print out and copy 31 pages per minute in monochrome, and 17 pages per minute in color. It can carry out print resolutions of up to 600 x 600 dots per inch, 2400 image quality. An automatic document feeder has a 50-page capacity, so you need not manually feed each sheet.
The flatbed scanner in full color can perform scanning tasks of documents or images with such correctness. And it may be accessed whether connected to a network or workstation. Paper jams and other similar problems need not get in the way of productivity as there's a large document feeder around. A busy office setting can especially benefit from such, where there's little tolerance for any setback or delay.
This compact machine can be used for sending out faxes, even without being hooked up to a workstation. That's because it's a stand alone facsimile machine. It comes with a built-in high-speed fax modem. So when hooked up to a computer, it's capable of sending out a document straight from an e-mail. If there are numerous pages of documents to work on, fret not as the automatic document feeder can take care of that.
Maintaining productivity cost to a minimum is important, especially these days where the price of everything is rising. And that's why Dell has incorporated a color control tool called the ColorTrack. This enables you to economize by determining the way the printer is accessed by either an individual or workgroup. A max of 50 user or workgroup accounts can be set, and each one can be supervised through a web configuration program. It's possible to enable or disable access to the printer, and set certain limits for color or monochrome printing.
As soon as the cartridge begins to go low on its toner, a proactive way of alerting you is done by the machine. Such is possible because of the Dell Toner Management System (DTMS). There are three ways notification is sent out: By means of the LCD screen, a computer that's hooked up to the network, and via an e-mail sent to the person who should be replacing the Dell compatible toners.
Standard memory amounts to 256 MB - that's 128 MB for printing, and another 128 MB shared by copying, scanning and faxing tasks. Such can be upgraded to a maximum of 1152 MB to efficiently handle massive tasks. But other than the onboard memory, there are many other features which can be expanded as well. This way, as the demands of the growing work environment increases, this 4-in-1 printer can easily catch up.
