How long does this take to warm up.I have a older okidata c3200n that takes about 30 sec. from the time i hit print. Is this a lot faster?

30 to 60 seconds......depends on how long it's been idle. From off to ready is maybe 2.5 minutes.
580804
No it is not "a lot faster". All laser printers require time to heat the corona wire that melts the toner to the paper.

My estimate is about 20 seconds. Great printer overall so far, much faster print speed than my c5300n.

Interesting question. I'm unaware of any specification data related to your question. My un-scientific approach is simply hands on analysis which appears to be around a second per line printed. Of course, if each entry is at the max 12 digits, then a second would be a stretch. It is after all a dot-matrix type of printer (each digit individually printed) as opposed to the heat-transfer type of tape. I would add that I've had several printing desk calculators and this one (Sharp EL-1750V) is comparably no slower than any of the others. Hope this helps.

It only takes a couple of minutes for it to start warming up. I literally use this for several hours every day:)

For sure it shouldn't take an hour. Mine heated up almost instantly. You may have your wires connected improperly.

I have not noticed any time to warm up. I"m amazed at the high quality sound I get . I hope it has a long useful life. Some things like my Century Link Modem contains a chip that causes the modem to fail when server format is changed. I hope this is not a future trend in electronics. I have to pay $180 per year to replace modems which have been programmed by my ISP to fail.

We use it to prototype an application. So we didn't use it to its full potential. But I can tell from my printing experience with this printer, it will print 2 to 3 cards per min both sides. I did not try one side only printing. It might be faster if you are printing one side. I hope I answered your question.

I havent use the first original cartridge yet so far about 30 pages, it still show 1/3 left, but I have friend use then same printer with outside ink tank for 50$ he can print for ever, I may try that later.

I had the same exact thing happen, what you have to do is tap the side of the cartridge to loosen it up and just keep inserting and pulling it out until the red light goes away. I literally had the same problem, took me a good 8-10 minutes to get it to work, but after I got it working I started printing and the quality was excellent. You just gotta get past that hump, but yes the toner does work and works great!

Model: Brother HL-2280DW You will be amazed- even with starter cartridge, you will be able to reset and do additional several hundred pages without refilling. It worked for me.I just want to give you some tips on refilling your brother printer toner. If your computer/printer indicates low toner/needs replacement- do not worry- and do n't refill yet!!. Just follow the following instructions and you will get several hundred pages to print without refilling- it worked for me!!! a. with the power on, open the front cover (front cover for toner, not the papers) and leave the cover open, while doing the following. b.press clear c. press start d. press down arrow e, press up arrow f. press ok. Then you may close the cover. You are all set and got several hundred pages to print without refilling. I have this printer for almost 2 years-my 10th grader and 6th grader have lots to print every day-I never replaced the starter toner. Salute to Google and you tube for this resetting instructions!!!

I don't know what to tell you, mine fired right up and went to work. Maybe a test print or unplug the machine? Sorry!

I hate to say it but the truth is .... it depends. If you are just printing text, you could get 400 to 500 pages easily. If you are printing a lot of gray-scale graphics, your output will drop considerably.

Let the cartridge sit for about 12 hours before printing if it was completely empty! :) I didn't know this either but it helped greatly!

I've printed 3652 total pages with 2502 being color... I still haven't had to replace the yellow "starter" cartridge. The others were replaced at about the 1200-1500 page mark. Full disclosure, I had the setting on "color saver" for about the first 800, since then its been set back to default. Prints are fantastic quality

Takes about a minute. Not as fast as some of the other high end sub-dye models, but considering the quality of the images and price, its a great printer

I will answer this but I'm new to being in an office. I had an HP and it was tempermental. It worked when it wanted to, or so it seems. Then by sitting idle the ink dried out and they are very expensive. Now I have a Canon and I can not believe how fast it prints. And I learned quickly how to scan and send. Would I recommend this? Darn tootin! Great machine and the toner costs a lot less and last longer. Joh

It should only take a minute or two. If yours doesn't come on then you may have a bad sensor or switch (bulb). Honestly, I don't pay attention to ANY of the "ready" lights on the Gaggia. The ready indicator for the pump is too fast and I find that the machine likes to sit for a good 5-10 minutes before brewing to fully heat up. I also ignore the steam indicator, as it also is far too fast. I give my machine about 3 minutes to fully heat the steam in the boiler and purge it once every minute or so to eliminate any unwanted water in the wand. I have had much better results this way, especially after installing the Sylvia steam wand.

Refurbished cartridges last longer than the OEM versions. I have had mine for about four months and I am on my second cartridge. The first OEM cartridge went out after three weeks and the refurbished I'm still using. I print quite a bit since this is my work printer.
