A Full-Color Printer That’s Surprisingly Green
Thursday, August 7th, 2008
Last summer Dell released the 1320c Color Laser Printer, which was and still is one of the most affordable true color laser printers on the market. The printer went on to garner some very impressive reviews and is perched at the number 2 position on the PC World List of Top 10 Color Laser Printers. Given that a few years ago color laser printers still had four-digit price tags, the $249 1320c looks like an amazing amount of performance for the price.
The 1320c is a fairly basic printer. It has no copy or scan features and while there is network upgrade available, it is definitely a very basic printer. For those wanting full-color laser capability for a home office or small business, you’ll need a machine that’s a bit more capable.
Enter the new 2135cn Multi-Function Color Laser printer. The 2135cn offers a powerful array of functions that make it capable of replacing a lot of office machines. In addition to being a high-quality color laser printer, it offers scan, copy, and fax capability in full color with an automatic document feeder to handle large multi-page documents.

The 2135cn offers professional-quality color printing in 600×600 dpi resolution and it can crank out up to 16 pages per minute monochrome or 12 pages per minute in color. It even optimizes image quality without user intervention. It offers full networking capability and a host of convenient fax-handling features.
Naturally, you can save a lot of energy as well as office space when you replace your scanner, copier, and fax machine with a single piece of equipment like the 2135cn. But these days, it’s definitely good to know that this printer has been designed with Dell’s emphasis on environmental impact in mind. The 2135cn is fully Energy Star certified, which means that, on average, it is 25% more energy efficient than conventional models. On top of that, Dell provides prepaid return mailers to allow you to easily recycle toner-cartridges when they run out.
Both quality and environmental impact benefit from Dell’s Emulsion Aggregation Toner Technology. This technology allows for more precise imaging by using smaller toner particles. This can also reduce energy consumption during the printing process as well as allowing the printer to warm up and print more quickly. The 2135cn is a printer designed from start to finish to make your home office or small business more efficient, more economical, and more environmentally friendly and carries a price tag of $599.
