Ranked #65,772 in Computers & Electronics, #1,019,955 overall

The Dell 1720dn printer using the Dell Laser 1720dn cartridges is an extremely fast monochrome laser printer. It is probably most commonly used for small office workgroups as it comes with Ethernet connectivity that is built in. However, there are some people who choose to use it at home as well, especially if they plan to use their printer a lot. It is a reliable choice for heavy print output at either location.

Prints So Fast You'll Freak

Of course, the number of pages printed per minute always varies depending on the particular job that you are printing. However, with a maximum output of 30 pages every minute using Dell replacement toner, the speed of this printer cannot be denied. It even works fast when printing pages with lots of graphics.

Despite its fast printing speed, print quality is high on this printer. The output resolution is 1200 dots per inch or dpi. This ensures that everything you print, including presentations with lots of graphics, will be of professional looking quality.

There are many areas to save on this printer, including but not limited to its low price relative to benefits. The ability to do duplex printed, double sided pages, automatically helps you to save paper. This not only saves you money but makes it a more environmentally friendly choice also.

The printer comes with a toner cartridge that is good for around 3000 pages. You can opt for the high output toner cartridge instead which doubles the output of the standard cartridge. This will enable you to lower the cost for each printed page.

For ease in connecting, the Dell 1720dn comes with Ethernet connections built in so it is easy to connect to via a network. However, there are also ports for directly connecting via USB and parallel cables. You may also opt to purchase an adaptor which allows you to connect wirelessly.

There are various ways this printer can help you and your workgroup to be as efficient as possible. One way is the speed with which it can warm up and start printing. When you send a print job while the printer is in sleep mode, it can get the first page out in as quickly as 7.5 seconds.

Further efficiency gains come from adding the optional paper drawer that holds 550 sheets. When you add this to the standard tray that holds 250 sheets, it means getting up to add paper less often. Other gains can come from increasing the speed of the processor and the amount of RAM which allows for bigger or more complicated print jobs to be printed faster.

The laser printer has a one year warranty standard and this can be upgraded to a longer one. Dell provides printer support via telephone every day of the week and all day. You can also get help via the live support online. If you go to the company website, you will also find a great deal of support information.

You have many choices available to you when shopping for a monochrome laser printer. The Dell 1720dn will give you excellent value for the money you will spend. It is one that is well worth looking at when you want a high speed printer without sacrificing quality and that will keep working hard for you. Make sure you have plenty of Dell laser toners on hand to keep the printouts looking crisp. Avoid dull images by replacing the Dell Laser 1720dn printer toner cartridge when necessary. Running out of bulk toner last minute can be frustrating so prepare yourself wisely. Happy printing.
