User Reviews for Dell 3110cn Color Laser Printer

  • Reviewed by: bartlett

    Duration of ownership: 3 Weeks

    Strengths: For General Buisness use the 3110CN produces copies at a considerably faster speed than older InkJet priners. Easy to use loader for Envelopes.

    Weaknesses: Large in size.

    Overall Evaluation: I have just recently bought this printer for general business use. I am in Sales so therefore I print a considerable amount of documents. After reading other reviews on this site I became a little hessitant on buying this product only after the fact. My advice is this, I do not recommend this printer for somebody who is looking to do Premier Quality prints, i.e, a print shop (600X600 DPI just.... is not good enough) but I highly recommend this printer for somebody like myself. I am happy with the images that the 3110CN produces and the print speeds are considerably faster than my old Lexmark 5100 series InkJet printer.

    Duration of ownership: 2 Months

    Strengths: It's cheap and looks it

    Weaknesses: You rated this printer as the top colour laser printer on the market, but then listed as a weakness that it's colour speed was poor. Surely the speed of a colour printer printing in colour is one of the main criteria to rate a device. Your review was laughable. This device is incredibly slow printing in Best mode colour, the number of different consumables it gets through is a full time job for someone and it spreads poisoness toner everywhere inside the device.

    Overall Evaluation: You buy cheap you get cheap, pay the extra and get a decent HP colour laserjet.

    Duration of ownership: 1 Year

    Strengths: Good printing, nice bright colors

    Weaknesses: A part broke 1 week after warranty expired and parts and labor are more than a new printer :(

    Overall Evaluation: I would not recommend, we didn't use it everyday, or all day long, it should have held up better.
