The Dell 3100cn color laser printer is a full featured addition to any home or office. Its massive size weighing in at almost 80 pounds impressed us right out of the box. The setup was so simple that one of our reviewer's fifth grade daughters had us up and running in 15 minutes!
The 3100cn has outstanding print quality and is fully compatible with virtually all operating systems including Windows, Mac and Linux. We especially liked its paper capacity that gobbled up nearly 500 sheets in a single gulp. The toner has enough capacity to last over 4000 sheets depending on print quality and we feel this is more then sufficient considering the reasonable replacement cost of the cartridge. Print speed will depend on the quality settings, but we managed around five pages per minute which was plenty fast for our needs. The built in LCD screen provides status updates including how much paper or toner is remaining, in addition to alerts and alarms.
The 3100cn does not include some of the cables we needed to setup to our system however the cost was less then twenty dollars which made the additional purchase easy to justify. Like all products from Dell the 3100cn is backed with a one year warranty and first class customer support with extended coverage available at additional cost. We purchased our 3100cn for $497 and for the money our reviews feel you would be hard pressed to find a better printer. In fact a recent review of a competing Lexmark printer at the same price point affirmed the value of the 3100cn laser printer. We can recommend with confidence the 3100cn regardless of your intended printing application.
