Overview

The OKI C9600dhn is a digital color printer designed for use in a business setting. The images produced are on par with professional-level results, but are offered from a compact, cost-effective machine noted for its durability. Speeds are high at up to 40 pages per minute, and the printer rarely slows down thanks to a large processor and plenty of memory. If you need a business capable printer with all the amenities as well as the ability to perform for years, the Okidata C9600dhn is a great way to get it.

Features and Functionality

The 40 page per minute output on the Okidata C9600dhn is the estimated rate for monochrome text prints, with a first page output in as little as 9 seconds. A 36 ppm for color is a bit slower, but not enough to make a significant impact on overall print times. These fast speeds are matched by a high resolution (1200 x 600 dpi) and OKI’s color matching software and ink simulations, which allow businesses to create everything from full-color brochures to flawless presentations.

In fact, versatility of print media is one of the reasons this is such a popular printer. The wide-feed format allows you to print banners up to 12″ x 18″ x 47″ in size, and the 239-sheet multipurpose input tray can be adjusted for use with envelopes, bond paper, transparencies, glossy paper, and other non-standard media. Letter paper and legal-sized paper are always usable on the machine, as well, and are fed via a 530-sheet paper tray with the option for automatic double-sided printing.

The C9600dhn offers the most advanced features of any other printers in this line. It comes with a hefty 720MHz processor, 384MB of memory, and a 20GB hard drive for advanced security features. Connection options include standard USB 2.0 and Parallel ports, as well as a built-in 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet port.

Although these features combine to create a powerful, business-ready machine that can produce documents at a monthly duty cycle of up 150,000 sheets, there are also upgradeable options to take this printer to the highest level. Total memory capacity can reach 1GB, and the paper capacity can expand to up to 2,880 sheets in all. Output tray finishers and even an automated hole punch finisher can also be installed, making it easy to create professional results in-house.

Of course, no OKI brand printer would be complete without high-yield toner options. Replacement C9600dhn cartridges come in four separate colors, each of which offers a total output of up to 15K pages at an average 5 percent coverage rate. The Okidata C9600dhn toner is available in Black (42918904), Cyan (42918903), Magenta (42918902), and Yellow (42918901). Each part can be purchased and installed separately to further the total printer output.
