Dell 3010cn – Put This Printer To Work And You Will Never Look Back
The Dell 3010cn color laser printer comes to us from the folks at Dell. This particular model delivers networkable, high-quality color laser printing for around the same price as a comparable black-and-white printer. For the small home-based business or office which needs a color laser printer for small workgroups, the Dell 3010cn may be the ticket. It also ships with 3010cn Toner Cartridge; both color and black.
How heavy is it? It’s no lightweight, but at about 55lbs. it’s still a fairly easy printer to move around if you need to. Actually, it’s right in the ballpark for printers in this niche. Also, because it’s a color printer (and most are monochrome), that’s an added upside sure to soothe anybody who has a problem with its weight. It’ll fit in well enough in a corner of an office because it’s a bit over a foot square in size, which also makes it attractive to a small business.
Printing Capabilities. The Dell prints black-and-white pages at about 25 per minute. If you choose to print in color, you can expect about 5 pages per minute of speed. Clarity is fine, at about 600×600dpi. What’s outstanding is the amount of pages it can put out before needing maintenance (over 45,000 per month). It can also hold 250 sheets of paper, and that can be expanded to 900 sheets with the addition of a couple of other paper trays.
Compatibility. The 3010cn Printer works well with MS Vista, XP, 2000 and also in a network with NT 4.0 or MS Server 2003. It also comes with Ethernet 10/100 or USB 2.0 ports, which are the standards for today’s computer data interface ports.
How Much Memory? The 3010cn comes with an installed 64MB of memory that can be upgraded to 576MB. With such a wide range, the unit should be able to handle most any print job.
On-Site Service. Dell’s normal 24/7 year-long service warranty applies. This is upgradeable to 5 years, for a small price. The plan also has a home-user version, which is essentially the same in all aspects.
Toner Cartridges. The printer takes the standard Dell 3010cn toner cartridge. The ones that come with the printer are rated at about 2,000 pages, but that’s because these are so-called starter cartridges. Replacement ones will print out somewhat more. In fact, some owners have reported going more than a couple years without having to replace their toner. This can make the costs of owning a color laser printer like the Dell 3010cn well within the reach of most budgets.
Summing it All Up. Putting the Dell 3010cn to work is relatively hassle-free and without any drama. Dell 3010cn Toner are nicely priced and plentiful on the market these days, so there won’t be a big dent on the wallet when it comes time to replace them. Dell’s 24/7 service can help ease the fears of the small business owner, too. And because it works with most Windows operating systems, there’s sure to be little or no problem installing and running one of these printers.
