E460dw specifications

The Lexmark E462dtn and E460dw printers are vital parts of Lexmark's extensive lineup, catering to small and medium-sized businesses that require efficient, high-quality monochrome printing. These models stand out due to their impressive functionality, performance characteristics, and advanced technologies.

The Lexmark E462dtn is designed for high-volume printing and offers an impressive print speed of up to 45 pages per minute, which makes it an excellent choice for busy work environments. Additionally, it has a first-page-out time of as fast as 6 seconds, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity. The E462dtn also features automatic duplex printing, which helps to save paper and reduce operating costs.

On the other hand, the Lexmark E460dw is tailored for users who value wireless connectivity. It seamlessly integrates into office networks, thanks to built-in Wi-Fi and mobile printing support.
