3130CN

 

Dell's 3130cn Color Laser Printer is a near-perfect starter printer for a small office or workgroup. It's extremely capable on all counts, and it has room to grow.

Very fast; very good print quality Economical consumables

Duplexer costs extra Design leaves transfer belt vulnerable

The Dell 3130cn would be a welcome workhorse for any small office or workgroup. It has the speed and print quality you'd expect from a color laser, and it can expand with your business

Dell 3130CN review

 

The tall, broad Dell 3130CN is as powerful as it looks. In our tests, plain-text pages burst out at a rate of 25.3 pages per minute (ppm), one of the faster times we've seen. Its tested graphics speed of 5.7ppm is extremely fast. The speed isn't the...

Dell 3130cn

 

As prices of colour laser printers continue to decline, many home and small business users are faced with an increasingly difficult decision on what type of printer will meet their colour printing needs. There are a lot of misconceptions about colour...

You may not realise just how many pages you print, because it's probably more than you think. If you print 100 pages a day for 30 days, that is 3000 pages per month. Yikes! If you or your business routinely prints reports or other multiple page...

We love it

 

We are a medium-sized business that prints 2000-3500 color copies a month. This printer allows us to print in high quality, quickly. Our old printer didn't like 32lb. paper that much, but it's no problem for the 3130. We just love it and it's so easy...

Kicks you know what

 

Pros: I have printed color flyers at local office supplies. At a hit of 60 cents. Wireless adapter was pretty simple to set up. Took about 15 mins. Printed 200 flyers in the first 2hrs of setting up the laser printer with no issues. My home office...

Would buy another!

 

I bought this printer after much research. I needed a color laser that was PC and Mac compatible and didn't have issues such as no color toner = no print. This is an excellent printer and a good value. It's silent, except when actually printing. Warm...
