OKI B2520 MFP

Pros

Low price Mailbox option is great for a multiuser environment Front-mounted USB port lets you print from or scan/fax to a USB thumbdrive Good colour scan quality Manual feed slot Full QWERTY keyboard lets you input email addresses easily

Cons

Slow task speeds Poor greyscale scan quality Middling graphics print quality Not network-ready Control panel is hard to decipher and not intuitive Text LCD isn't backlit, making it hard to read in low light Per-page costs are high

Verdict

The OKI B2520 MFP is a low-cost multifunction that ultimately fails for a variety of reasons, from its poorly implemented control panel to slow, low-quality output. There are better laser multifunctions that won't leave you scratching your head in confusion and frustration.
