Color Laser Laser 1700n
A networked printer lives or dies by uptime, and the Dell 1700N is built for it: 25-ppm monochrome output shared over Ethernet, paper capacity that grows to 800 sheets, and a 15,000-page monthly duty cycle that shrugs off busy weeks. It is the small office's set-and-forget print server.
The running-cost play is the high-capacity toner cartridge — roughly 6,000 pages means months between orders for a typical small team. Keep a compatible spare on the shelf and the shared printer never becomes anyone's emergency.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cartridges does the Dell 1700n use?
Cartridges such as 310-5402 and 310-5401 are made for the Dell 1700n. If you are ever unsure, open the printer's front cover and copy the code off the old cartridge before ordering a replacement.
Can the Dell 1700n be shared on an office network?
Yes — the Dell 1700n includes a wired network port (the 'n' in its name), so you can plug it into your router or switch and share it with every computer on the network.
When should I replace the toner in the Dell 1700n — at the warning or when prints fade?
You can usually keep printing past the first low-toner warning on the Dell 1700n — replace the cartridge when prints actually fade or streak, not at the first alert. Keep a spare (310-5402) on hand so the warning never catches you out.
