Launch of MC560 brings a productive and cost effective A4 MFP with colour and mono copy, print, scan as well as a fully functional fax for outstanding economies and efficiencies.
OKI Printing Solutions revealed its latest compact low-cost A4 colour MFP - the MC560 - designed to meet the growing demand for greater flexibility, efficiency and reduced total cost of ownership by busy workgroups and other small businesses.
The MC560 comes fully equipped to support all office tasks in a neat desktop design and delivers excellent value for money.
The high quality, high performance print engine makes light work of busy workloads and delivers copies and print jobs at an impressive 20ppm in colour or 32ppm in mono. PCL/PostScript, networking and true multitasking makes the MC560 easy to share while its Super G3 fax function takes care of communications. The LDAP (lightweight directory access protocol) allows users to quickly and easily scan directly to email.
There are two versions of the unit – the MC560n and the MC560dn, which is equipped with a duplex unit for economic double-sided printing.
Peter Dresser, product marketing manager, OKI Printing Solutions comments: “The network ready MC560 is the ideal support system for any business. Equipped with scanning, printing, copying and faxing as standard the MC560 is fast, reliable and highly versatile keeping efficiency levels high and running costs low.”

Is it possible if anybody can help me with a few queries on the MC560DN A4 Colour multifunction Printer?
I need to know whether it can fax through my computer rather than putting a piece of paper through the top of the printer?
Also how big are the inks that come with this printer?

I have had one of the Oki MC560DN colour printers for a couple of months now and am very happy with the things it can do.
To answer your questions, it can PC Fax which basically means that you can fax through your computer and not have to walk up to the fax machine to put a piece of paper through and then enter the fax number.
I managed to get around 1700 pages or so out of the toners that come with the machine when you first get it. I do print quite heavy colour pages so you would probably get up to 2000 pages out of the starter inks in the printer.
Hope this answers your questions.
I got this printer from Printerland with a 3 year warranty and £50 cashback and was very happy with the deal i got.

I am very pleased with the PC fax capability of this printer.
I don’t even have to leave my seat and can fax straight from my desktop.
The colour this printer produces is second to none and I am glad I spent the extra money and invested in this printer.
