Review: Oki C330dn LED Color Laser Printer


PCWorld: Review – Oki C330dn LED Color Laser Printer

The reviewer also notes that the color toner for this printer is expensive, but the bottom line is that it offers a reasonable balance of good speed and features with ‘tolerable’ color print quality.


“The Oki C330dn color LED printer (a laser-like technology) is competitively priced for small offices or small workgroups at just $400 (as of October 22, 2010). Compared with other color laser and LED printers we’ve tested, however, it falls short on color–both in the quality and in the cost of toner.

The C330dn installed quickly on our test PC, but it fumbled on our Mac. The Mac installation was a poorly documented, labyrinthine process that required opening several folders and selecting oddly named installation packages. After we made a few educated guesses as to which install file to run, added the printer manually when it was connected via ethernet (the printer added itself automatically when we attached it via USB), and installed the Mac Rosetta framework that the driver relies on, things went smoothly. Oki now offers a downloadable update, eliminating the need for Rosetta.”
