All three devices have an 8-second first-page- out print time and 300,000-page duty cycle. PCL, PostScript, and XPS are supported. USB and Ethernet connectivity is standard. Standard paper handling includes a 530- sheet tray and a 300-sheet multi-purpose tray. Users can add additional trays as options – such as a second 530-sheet tray, two addition- al 530-sheet trays, or a second tray and a high- capacity feeder that supports up to 1,590 sheets. Maximum paper input is 2,950 sheets. Output is a maximum of 610 sheets (face- down). OKI offers an optional EFI XF 5 Server for the C931e and C941e machines. This external RIP helps improve production workflow and reduce printing errors. Some of the tools in this software are: spot color, job management views, and automated color workflows (the software is pre-installed with workflows and downloadable media profiles). For both devices, OKI also offers an optional Harlequin MultiRIP 10 RIP server for print- ing complex color jobs. What makes these devices stand out from other production machines are the consum- ables, especially for the C941e. The C941e supports a five-color toner station – users can print not only in CMYK toner but white or clear toner as well to make the colors stand out. Some examples that OKI has given that includes white or clear toner are: signage, bot- tle labels, invitations, and pocket folders. We’ve calculated the cost per page for the C931e and C941e (note that we don’t have prices for the clear or white toner so cost-per- page reflects just the CMYK toners and image drums). It is 1.2 cents for black and 7.4 cents for color (MSRP pricing). These printers are available via the OKI Professional Color Partner Program. There is a one-year onsite warranty for the C911dn and the C941e. The C931e has a two-year warranty. All three printers have the five-year digital LED printheads warranty. © 2015 Better Buys for Business allows both print and electronic reproduction of this document.
