What this printer is and who it serves
The Dell 2230D is a monochrome laser printer built for desktop use. It prints at 35 pages per minute with a 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution and includes automatic duplex printing. A 400 MHz processor and 160 MB of memory handle print jobs. The standard paper capacity is 251 sheets, expandable to 501 sheets, and the monthly duty cycle reaches 35000 pages. It suits offices that need fast, double-sided black-and-white output on plain paper.
What to verify before ordering
Confirm that your workstation has a USB port for the connection. The printer requires a 110 V AC power supply. Ensure the desktop footprint fits the unit and that you can load A4, Letter, Legal, A5, B5, Executive, Folio, Statement, Universal, Custom Size, Envelope No. 10, B5 Envelope, C5 Envelope or DL Envelope media. The standard 251-sheet input tray and 251-sheet output tray are included; the optional tray adds capacity up to 501 sheets.
Behaviour under sustained load
The 35000-page monthly duty cycle indicates the engine is rated for continuous high-volume printing. The fixed 160 MB memory and 400 MHz processor manage the print queue without memory expansion. Automatic duplex printing runs at rated speed for double-sided jobs. The 251-sheet standard output capacity means frequent retrieval during long runs unless the optional second tray is fitted to reach the 501-sheet maximum input.

Questions about this item
Does the Dell 2230D come with a USB cable and starter toner, or do I need to buy them separately?
The box includes the printer, a power cord and a starter toner cartridge; a USB cable is not supplied and must be purchased separately.
There is only one memory size listed — 160 MB — so is that the only version available?
Yes, the 2230D ships with 160 MB as standard and the memory cannot be expanded, so there is no alternative capacity to choose.
The spec says 35 ppm — what does that actually mean when I am printing double-sided A4 documents?
The 35 pages-per-minute rating applies to single-sided A4; automatic duplex printing runs at roughly half that speed because each sheet passes through twice.
