Your needs, this model
Does it fit your priorities?
Can the standard USB B2200 print Legal documents with a documented 150-sheet ordinary tray reserve?
Yes. The exact guide supports Legal in the main tray and describes about150 suitable sheets. The actual host driver must be compatible.
Explore this need in the finder →Does the ordinary B2200 include the Ethernet connection of B2200n?
No. The exact interface columns restrict that ordinary network arrangement to the n configuration.
Explore this need in the finder →Can a driver layout setting establish automatic two-sided printing?
No. Automatic duplex is unconfirmed, and the original paper recommendations advise against feeding the same sheet through twice.

The OKI B2200 is an earlier monochrome LED printer with a standard USB connection. The original Americas ordering table maps part 43641701 to the 120V configuration. Its main attraction is a simple nearby print arrangement, provided the intended computer can run the exact supported software.
The operating guide identifies B2200 as a GDI printer that leaves most page-image processing to the host. The neighboring B2400 performs that work internally with PCL. Those are different arrangements, so a language or resident-font feature in the B2400 column is not assigned to B2200.
Check the exact interface before planning sharing
The specification table gives this ordinary B2200 USB 2.0. Parallel belongs to B2400 models, and built-in Ethernet belongs to the n configurations. A family-level statement about network printing does not make the assigned printer an Ethernet device.
Confirm the real cable and the exact driver on the computer that will supply the pages. The guide describes historic Windows and Macintosh operation; that is evidence of the original workflow, not a promise that every present system will install the same software.
A separately arranged shared queue would have its own host and support requirements. It is not treated here as included network hardware or as proof of native mobile printing.
The tray and manual input serve different jobs
The main tray holds about 150 suitable ordinary sheets, with Letter, Legal and A4 positively listed in the operating specification. The manual input accepts one sheet at a time and supports additional small formats and appropriate envelopes. Set the source and document size before sending the job.
The loading instructions ask the guides to touch the stack without gripping it. Preprinted stationery has different face orientation in the ordinary tray and manual input, so using the same loading habit for both can produce an upside-down or reversed result.
Suitable envelopes need the manual source and the specified heavier-media setting. Windowed, clasped and self-sealing envelopes are excluded by the guide. A supported envelope size does not establish that any envelope construction can pass through the heated engine.
Expect face-up output and modest packet handling
The output tray is declared for 30 sheets, much smaller than the input reserve. Pages emerge face up, and the guide suggests reverse print order when the application offers it. Check the resulting sequence before a longer document rather than assuming that every application handles order identically.
The paper recommendations also advise against sending a sheet through twice to print the other side. Automatic duplex is not established by the read evidence. N-up settings reduce the number of images per sheet arrangement, but do not create a supported two-sided paper route.
Understand which preferences persist
The Windows driver can override matching defaults from the Status Monitor. Preferences changed for an application may last only while that application runs, whereas changes through other documented controls can become defaults. This difference matters when ordinary paper and occasional envelopes share one printer.
After a special job, inspect the next document's size, source and material settings. That short check can prevent a correct physical load from being sent under an old application preference.
Job pattern changes the drum estimate
The maker's toner declaration is separate from its drum-life estimates. The guide gives substantially different drum estimates for continuous printing, three-page jobs and single-page jobs. A largely single-page workload should not be planned around the continuous figure.
The advertised engine rate lacks established Letter-specific conditions here, and maximum monthly duty is not a recommended interval. Finally, the guide's compact dimensions explicitly exclude the tray, so measure the working installation rather than using that body rectangle as complete desk clearance.

Paper, software and setup details
Print-rate conditions
The Americas specification declares a 21-page/minute engine rate without establishing Letter-specific conditions in the read sections. The guide introduction has an older 20-page headline; neither becomes a verified Letter rate. The maker brochure gives a 15,000-page monthly duty ceiling, not a recommended interval.
Paper handling
The main tray supports Letter, Legal 13/14-inch and A4, holding about 150 suitable ordinary sheets. A separate manual input takes one sheet at a time. The retained standard capacity is the 150-sheet headline. Other supported small paper and envelopes use the manual input. The original recommendations advise against feeding a sheet twice; automatic two-sided printing is unconfirmed.
Scanning arrangement
This is a print-only monochrome LED device with no integrated glass, ADF, copying or fax route.
Computer and mobile connections
The exact B2200 has USB 2.0. The guide and brochure restrict parallel to B2400 models and ordinary Ethernet to n models. B2200n network capability is not borrowed into the assigned B2200.
Supplies and declared yields
The maker toner declaration is 2,000 pages under ISO/IEC 19752; an included starter yield is not established here. The separate drum is estimated at 15,000 continuous pages, 10,000 at three pages/job and 6,500 at one page/job in the guide, without power save. Those conditional life figures are not monthly workload recommendations.
Software and support
The original B2200 is GDI/Enhanced Windows Printing and relies on host page processing; the PCL and resident-font features of B2400 are separate. Original guide instructions describe Windows and Macintosh operation, with Windows Status Monitor for detailed controls. Temporary application preferences can override defaults. Check the exact driver and monitoring program on the intended computer.
Electrical edition and setup
The exact Americas ordering row maps B2200 part 43641701 to 120 V; the guide specifies 120 VAC ±10%, 50/60 Hz. Its physical dimensions are explicitly without tray, and brochure/guide weights differ without a complete loaded configuration, so installation bounding dimensions and loaded weight remain unknown. Allow loading and face-up output space.
