Performance analysis written by CNET Labs project leader Dong Van Ngo.

Okidata offers free telephone tech support 24/7 on a toll-free line and answers tech-support calls for the life of the Okidata Oki B4250, rather than the duration of its one-year exchange warranty. The warranty also covers the LED printhead for a generous five years. The overnight-exchange repair plan asks you to pay outbound shipping; Okidata pays for the return. You can double the length of the printer's warranty for $79 or triple it for $219--a nice option.

The concise Oki B4250 setup and software-installation guide booklets suffer from grainy photos, but they carefully step you through the easy process. The printer's onscreen PDF manual, however, sometimes puzzled us by mixing together information on the B4250 and similar models. Under Windows XP, the installation flowed smoothly, despite the software's unnecessary questions about the printer model. Okidata's Web site lists only two articles for the B4250, so you're better off e-mailing questions directly to tech support.
