Oki C3600 review

In this review

The C3600 also performed well in all of our print-quality tests. Black text looked as good as we expect from a laser printer, with bold line formation and smooth gradation along font size scales. The C3600 also handled our graphics text admirably, showing excellent signs of colour separation and sharp image distinction, even in some of the subtle blending detail. As expected, some of the images looked slightly smudgy and pixellated, but the general print quality across presentations, graphics and simple text strengthened our overall impression of this printer.

Conclusion
The Oki C3600 is fairly large and heavy, and it doesn't boast a plethora of features. It does, however, produce high-quality prints at a swift rate, making it one of our favourite colour laser printers.
