Dell's C1660w color printer is suitable for home use. The low-priced printer, which sells for $ 200, has decent speed output. Its print engine uses light emitting diodes as light sources, instead of lasers. New C1160w users may find it a bit difficult to set up the printer, but the process is fairly simple. The product uses Universal Serial Bus (USB) and Wi-Fi connectivity, and its liquid crystal display (LCD) and control buttons are very useful especially for new users. The C1660w does not have Ethernet capabilities, and it lacks a port for USB drives. Its Wi-Fi indicator is used to determine whether the printer is already connected wirelessly. The unit also allows users to print documents using smart phones and email. The printer is relatively small, and it weighs 21 pounds. Its dimensions of 8.9 by 15.5 by 11.8 inches are the same as those of the Dell C1760nw.
The printing process starts with a front panel that emerges from the bottom of the input tray, which can hold up to 100 sheets. Users can use the printer for two-side printing by following instructions that explain how the paper should be reinserted, since the unit lacks an auto-duplexer. The unit's open-faced paper tray makes the process easier because the paper path can be reached by folding down the back panel. The printer's right side also includes a panel that provides access to toner cartridges.
The C1660w may be cheaper than other color printers, but its toner is a little expensive. Users can purchase black toner for $ 50 in 1,250-page units, while the 1,000-page color cartridges are priced at $ 56. The printer's output quality is similar to laser-class printers that are even more expensive. Printed pictures have outstanding quality, while printed texts are very sharp. The text quality may still be used for general business use. Colors are generally well saturated, but black backgrounds tend to look washed-out at times. Thin lines, on the other hand, are a little faded. The C1660w is not a very fast printer, but its speed is good for light use. The claimed costs of 4 cents per monochrome page and 21 cents per color page are a bit higher than the Dell 1250C and the Dell C1760nw.
The color printer produces black texts at a rate of 7.2 pages per minute (ppm), while full-page photographs have a 1.5 ppm rate. Users who plan to use the product via Wi-Fi or USB should choose the C1660w over Dell's C1760nw. However, the C1660w does not have C1760nw's 10-sheet bypass tray. It has also been announced that the C1160w is compatible with Dell's Mobile Print for Android, as well as with the iOS version of the application.
Dell's printer has a one-year warranty, but customers may opt to increase that to five years by paying an extra $ 80. The unit is ideal for small offices because of its light-duty features, but those looking for faster printers might want to look elsewhere.
