Multifunction Laser Printer
33 PPM Printer • Copier
PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
Geared toward small workgroups, the Dell 2335dn Multifunction La-
ser Printer proved to be a very good overall performer during its lab
evaluation. The A4 laser desktop device, which has a rated speed of
33 ppm and offers network print and scan, copy and PC and walk-
up fax functionality all as standard, demonstrated flawless reliability
throughout its 17,500-impression durability test. Easy to set up and
use, the 2335dn Multifunction Laser Printer is also productive, as
evidenced by its above average job stream productivity using the
PCL driver, as well as the fastest first-print times for several files,
compared to competitors. The company has dramatically improved
feedback to workstations from the previous version of Status Moni-
tor Console by providing more detailed information in the utility and
the types of alerts that users can configure. Additionally, the unit has
very good multitasking capabilities and offers automatic duplexing
as standard and an above average tested toner yield that exceeded
the rated yield. Based on these findings, BLI highly recommends
the 2335dn Multifunction Laser Printer for small workgroups with
monthly volumes of up to 5,000 impressions.
