Why compromise when you can have an OKI?
Perfect for any business with busy workgroups that want the maximum return on their IT investment. The compact low profile C500 Series has a host of essential features as standard, such as double-sided printing, built-in networking and a full three-year warranty, delivering much more than any ordinary office A4 colour printer.
These versatile, efficient and fast devices (up to 26ppm for colour and 30ppm for mono) are built for endurance and allow you to print on a wide range of media so that you can do so much more in-house. The C500 Series is ideal for everyday use in document-intensive environments.

True versatility
High Definition toner produces vibrant, saturated colour with a stylish finish, and an ability to print on a huge range of media (including card stock) puts the production of compelling marketing material within everyone's reach.
Now you can print an impressive variety of high quality single- and double-sided documents, from everyday items through to business cards, banners, and more. A compact, low profile design means that you can conveniently put it on your desk for arms-reach access to all your printed documents.
ProQ2400 multi-level output quality, 1200 × 600 dpi print resolution
- Microfine High Definition toner for maximum print quality
- Flexible media handling: from A6 to 1200mm banners; card stock up to 220gsm
- Compact, low profile design lets you pick up your documents with absolute ease
- OKI Template Manager makes it easy to create and print a range of document types
Effortless efficiency
The C500 Series delivers efficient, affordable printing day after day. High yield toner cartridges and a paper supply that can be expanded to 880 sheets mean longer uninterrupted printing. Plus, automatic two-sided printing comes as standard and a convenient multipurpose tray (MPT) lets you print on specialist media.
The C500 Series is fully networked as standard, allowing it to be shared across many users, and you can even monitor the printer remotely, thanks to OKI's PrintSuperVision software.
- 5,000 page toners and separate drum unit for maximum uptime and lower running costs
- Standard paper supply of 350 sheets, including 100-sheet multi-purpose tray (can expand to 880 sheets)
Automatic two-sided printing reduces paper consumption and saves money - Colour Access Policy Manager utility for controlling and monitoring user access rights
10/100 Ethernet built-in integration with your network, allowing sharing across many users, saving costs
Enhanced productivity
With a fast 'first page out' time and print speeds up to 30ppm, the most difficult deadlines become more manageable. The powerful processor and large memory lets you take on complex jobs with ease and there's an intelligent ECO mode that automatically supports faster throughput on small jobs.
- First page prints in just 8 seconds; continuous colour printing at up to 26ppm (30ppm black & white)
- 532MHz processor and 256MB memory - expandable to 768MB - for superior performance (C530 only).
- ECO mode improves output performance for jobs of only 1 or 2 pages
- PCL and PostScript1 brings platform flexibility, making it perfect for more graphical applications
Supporting your environmental policies
As you'd expect from OKI, the C500 Series has impressive green credentials. Built in a factory with 'CarbonZero' credentials it comes as standard with automatic double-sided printing which reduces paper use, and an ECO mode to help conserve energy and resources. Importantly when not in use, the 'Deep Sleep' mode reduces power consumption to negligible levels.
- ECO mode reduces energy consumption by keeping fusing temperatures low for one and two page jobs
- Deep Sleep mode saves you money by reducing energy consumption to less than 1.1 ~W^1
Automatic double-sided printing reduces unnecessary paper usage
Robust and reliable
Look beyond the thoughtful ergonomic design of the C500 Series and you'll see it is tough enough for the most demanding workloads. Our ultra-reliable digital LED technology has fewer moving parts, which means less wear and tear for exceptional reliability. This, plus a robust, built-to-last design, gives us the confidence to offer an extended three-year warranty as standard.
- Ultra-reliable digital LED print technology, pioneered by OKI and proven in use for over 20 years
Industry-leading three-year warranty as standard
