1282502 specification sheet

Overview:

If you need a black & white printer that supports the highest levels of office productivity, without straining your budget, you need the B431. Built for speed and maximum efficiency, this easy to use desktop printer gives you the advanced productivity features that most other manufactures like to charge extra for and includes them - as standard - in a robust and compact design that’s perfect for your desktop.

Features:

A printer for every office
Highly productive print speeds, excellent fine-detail image quality for crisp, clear documents, and a design that complements today’s modern working environments combine to deliver a printer for every office.

Exceptionally easy to use
Long-lasting consumables that can be replenished in moments; automatic two-sided printing; a backlit LCD display; a low profile design for easier document retrieval: the B431 will keep office productivity at a maximum, whether you choose the B431d for fast personal printing or the B431dn for sharing on the network.

Impressive print speeds
The B431 races through large jobs in minimal time. The first page prints out in less than 4.5 seconds and the rest at an impressive 38 pages per minute. It’s all thanks to a powerful 330MHz processor and 64MB memory (expandable to 320MB) for faster throughput.

Use it all day, every day
True 1200 x 1200dpi resolution means that all of your everyday office documents are printed with fine, crisp detail. An extra paper supply can be added, increasing the capacity right the way up to 880 – ideal for busy offices – and there’s a 100-sheet multi-purpose paper tray for feeding a variety of different paper types and sizes.

Compact and efficient
We designed the B431 specifically to meet the demands of today’s modern offices. It’s unusually compact, so it will fit in anywhere. Its high yield consumables last as long as 12,000 pages, so you can print more, for longer. And because the toner cartridge and drum are separate units, you only ever have to replace what needs replacing so there’s no waste.

Extra value
Other essential features include automatic two-sided printing as standard, a 2-line LCD display that tells you all about the current operating status of your printer and a ‘Power Save’ mode that reduces energy consumption to a frugal 8W.
