Your needs, this model
Does it fit your priorities?
Can this exact network configuration print ordinary A4 documents over Ethernet with 250 suitable sheets loaded?
Yes. The B4400n includes the OkiLAN server, and the guide supports A4 in the 250-sheet ordinary cassette. A compatible driver and valid network setup are required.
Explore this need in the finder →Does a working network print queue establish computer scanning from this device?
No. The exact device is print-only; the server adds connectivity rather than document-capture hardware.
Explore this need in the finder →Does standard Ethernet also establish native AirPrint support?
No. The read original evidence establishes desktop network printing but does not establish that native mobile protocol.
Explore this need in the finder →The assigned part is the black network version
The OKI B4400n is an earlier monochrome LED printer with an included OkiLAN Ethernet print server. The assigned part number, 62427104, identifies the black 120V version in the original Americas ordering table. Other B4400n cabinet and voltage rows are listed separately, so the part number usefully resolves the particular configuration.
Its standard network server makes it a different starting point from a base B4400 that still needs the optional accessory. USB and parallel remain available, but this is still a printer rather than a document-capture device.
Make the network identity dependable
The operating guide begins network setup by requiring either a network model or an installed server. It then describes obtaining the printer's network information and arranging the computer and printer addresses. For the B4400 arrangement, the server's TEST button produces the information printout.
That procedure is more useful for an existing installation than guessing which queue points to the device. Confirm its identity and address, then install the exact compatible driver. The manual also discusses automatic addressing and cases that need an administrator-assigned address; use the arrangement appropriate to the actual network.
Ethernet support does not establish native AirPrint, Mopria or wireless printing. Those routes remain unconfirmed here. A network print server also does not create a scanner, even if a computer can reach the printer successfully.
Allow for computer-based controls
The B4400 family's front panel has four indicator lights and an OnLine button. The Status Monitor provides detailed status and menu controls on a compatible desktop. A shared location therefore benefits from a clear way for the operator to inspect the printer's state rather than relying on an unexplained flashing light.
The named original operating systems are historic. Verify the exact driver and monitoring program on the computers intended to use it. The standard emulation list also must stay within the B4400 column: the PostScript option shown for certain B4600 configurations does not apply here.
Capacity depends on the included cassette
The ordinary reserve is a 250-sheet cassette for suitable stock, with Letter, Legal and A4 supported. The separate manual input takes individual sheets. A 500-sheet second cassette is an optional addition, not part of the assigned standard network configuration.
Legal paper requires the rear extension, and the guides and stopper must match the loaded size. If an accessory tray is fitted, enable the real hardware in the driver. Automatic continuation between ordinary trays also requires matching media settings, so a mixed-size installation is not one large reserve for a single chosen size.
Plan separate handling for special jobs
Envelopes and specified special materials use the manual input and rear, face-up output. Opening that exit changes the physical output path regardless of the software selection. Check page order and provide rear clearance before a larger packet.
The paper recommendations advise against running a sheet through twice. The evidence read does not establish automatic duplex, and network connectivity does not remove that limitation. A requirement for unattended two-sided output needs a positively documented route.
Separate supplies from monthly workload
The B4400 toner declaration is 3,000 pages under ISO/IEC 19752. The brochure reserves its larger 7,000-page cartridge for B4600 models. The image drum is a separate item with a continuous-printing life estimate that varies with job pattern.
The advertised 27-page maximum is not treated as a verified Letter-specific rate. Likewise, the maximum monthly duty is not a recommended monthly interval. For an individual machine, inspect its supplies, feed behavior and installation condition before assigning a sustained office workload.

Paper, software and setup details
Print-rate conditions
The maker B4400 series maximum is 27 pages/minute, without established Letter-specific conditions in the read sections. A 40,000-page monthly duty ceiling is documented; the recommended monthly interval remains unknown.
Paper handling
The included ordinary cassette holds 250 suitable sheets and supports Letter, Legal and A4. There is also single-sheet manual input, but the maker standard headline remains 250. The 500-sheet cassette and front multipurpose feeder are optional. Envelopes and specified special materials use manual feed and rear output; automatic duplex is unconfirmed, and the original recommendations advise against passing paper through twice.
Scanning arrangement
This is a print-only monochrome LED machine; the included network server does not add document capture, copying, fax, an ADF or a glass.
Computer and mobile connections
The exact B4400n includes its OkiLAN internal Ethernet print server, in addition to USB and parallel. This is distinct from the ordinary B4400 optional-server arrangement. No ordinary Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct or native mobile protocol is established.
Supplies and declared yields
The exact B4400 family uses the maker’s 3,000-page toner declaration under ISO/IEC 19752. All models originally ship with that standard cartridge. The 7,000-page high-capacity option is restricted to B4600 models. A separate 25,000-page image-drum estimate assumes continuous printing and can vary with pages per job.
Software and support
The actual network procedure requires a network model or fitted server, an appropriate address and the exact driver installation. The B4400-specific procedure uses the server TEST button to print network information. The desktop Status Monitor provides detailed status and menu controls because the physical printer has four LEDs and an OnLine button. Original named operating systems are historic. The B4400 column does not offer PostScript.
Electrical edition and setup
The assigned part 62427104 is expressly B4400n Black, 120 V, in the maker ordering table; it is not the beige or 230 V row. The B4400 body is 14 × 15.6 × 7.9 inches before operating clearance for Legal extension, rear output and service. Complete loaded weight is unestablished.
