CONS
Most inkjet printers have  lower running costs than the Dell B1160.
The B1160 is a single function monochrome laser printer which only prints in black and white.
The output tray could get cluttered when holding only a couple of dozen sheets even though it has a capacity of 100 A4 sheets.
A USB cable is not supplied in the box and the Dell B1160 only has a USB interface so the printer cannot be far to the computer.
