Dell C1765nfw Expert Review

The Dell C1765nfw is a multifunction printer for small or home office users; however, its compact design and small footprint makes it small enough to work well as a personal printer in just about any setting.

The printer has a fold down front paper tray that provides room for up to 150-sheets, along with a 10-sheet multipurpose tray built into the top. A bright mono-LCD display is the standout feature of a well laid out control panel, next to which sits the flatbed scanner and 15-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).

In keeping with the ergonomic design of the C1765nfw, four toner cartridges can be fitted without fuss, slotting in behind a cover on the right panel. On the subject of toners, they are the only things you will need to maintain with this machine, as it comes with a lifetime drum.

A 600 x 600dpi print resolution offers good clarity prints in text, photos and graphics, with the Dell churning out mono prints at a rate of 15 pages per minute (ppm) and colour prints at 12ppm. Scans are also good, thanks to an optical resolution of 1200 x 1200dpi, but copies could be better. Users that like a range of printing options will be pleased to know that the C1765nfw comes with Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, along with a USB port. This makes it possible to print directly from an Android or Apple device using the Dell Mobile Print app. Finally, Dell have provided several software programmes to improve the overall experience, including OpenManage, ColorTrack, Toner Management and the brilliant Nuance Paperport 14.
