            LED A4 product portfolio with the
          
        
        
          
            launch of six high performance and
          
        
        
          
            eco-friendly mono single function
          
        
        
          
            printers and MFPs, all backed by OKI
          
        
        
          
            Europe’s unique three-year extended
          
        
        
          
            warranty.
          
        
        
          “OKI’s new easy-to-use mono
        
        
          printers and MFPs deliver a new level of
        
        
          performance and efficiency to businesses
        
        
          and are 100% focused on the needs of
        
        
          our customers,” said Lee Webster, General
        
        
          Manager Product Marketing, EMEA, OKI
        
        
          Europe Ltd.
        
        
          The company’s refreshed product line-
        
        
          up includes three new standalone printers
        
        
          (the B412dn, B432dn and B512dn)
        
        
          and three multifunctional devices (the
        
        
          MB472dnw, MB492dn and MB562dnw).
        
        
          OKI says its new range provides businesses
        
        
          of any size with choice and flexibility to
        
        
          suit individual needs and budgets.
        
        
          Designed with the end user in mind,
        
        
          these feature-rich models are both cost-
        
        
          and eco-efficient – they keep running costs
        
        
          low, consume much less energy and offer
        
        
          duplex printing as standard.
        
        
          All of the printers and MFPs have
        
        
          achieved Energy Star 2.0 and Blue Angel

          The single-function

          toners (12,000 prints on

            OKI Europe refreshes its A4 mono line-up
          
        
        
          High performance
        
        
          and eco-friendly
        
        
          these mono printers accommodate the
        
        
          needs of the most demanding business or
        
        
          workgroup.
        
        
          The MB472dnw, MB492dn and
        
        
          MB562dnw are powerful multifunctional
        
        
          products that combine print, copy, scan
        
        
          and fax functionality in one compact and
        
        
          cost-effective device. Intrinsically designed
        
        
          to be user-friendly, these MFPs address the
        
        
          needs of a wide spectrum of customers,
        
        
          from the smallest business to much larger
        
        
          organisations, without compromising on
        
        
          quality or performance.
        
        
          Performance-enhancing functionality
        
        
          includes a customisable 7” LCD colour
        
        
          touch screen on the MB492dn and
        
        
          MB562dnw and wireless connectivity
        
        
          as standard on the MB472dnw and
        
        
          MB562dnw. The MB562dnw also has a
        
        
          large paper capacity of up to 1,160 pages,
        
        
          making it suitable for high volume printing.
        
        
          With Gigabit Ethernet as standard
        
        
          across the range, these printers and MFPs
        
        
          are ideal for sharing within workgroups,
        
        
          with fast network connectivity and
        
        
          significantly higher bandwidth capabilities.
        
        
          The inclusion of a 3GB Embedded
        
        
          Multi-Media Card (eMMC) enables faster
        
        
          processing of large print jobs and storage
        
        
          of documents and fonts. For document
        
        
          security, Secure Print is available across the
        
        
          range.

          ready and compatible with Apple AirPrint,
        
        
          facilitating remote printing from anywhere,
        
        
          without having to connect directly to a
        
        
          printing device.
        
        
          “Adding some of the best functionality
        
        
          from the high performance MB700 Series,
