Worthless My office recently replaced two aging HP 4650s with these, and the results have not been positive. 1.On one of the printers. Dell Color Laser Printer 5100CN This printer prints very well on std size paper.

One of the best high-duty cycle printers out there, with a nice pricetag! I work in an IT department for a County Government.

HP Color LaserJet 3800 vs. Dell 5100cn
Maximize uptime and minimize interventions with HP.
Replacement parts beyond toner in the first year (140,000 pages)4
Significant differences between these printers could impact

total cost of ownership:

Fewer replacement parts According to the Dell 5100cns specifications, the device requires 9 replacement parts beyond toner during the first 140,000 pages vs. none for an HP Color LaserJet 3800.1 Furthermore, 8 of the Dell parts are NOT covered by the 5100cns standard extended warranty. Be sure to consider the costs of those parts and any associated labor when comparing these two devices. Also keep in mind that users may be forced to replace parts more often than anticipated, because in our testing one Dell 5100cn imaging unit failed after printing 26,018 pages only 75% of its manufacturer-rated yield of 35,000 pages.2

Faster real-world performance The HP Color LaserJet 3800 offers its best print quality at full engine speed: up to 22 color or black-and-white pages per minute. Dell 5100cn users, on the other hand, must choose between best print quality and fastest output speed because this device slows down by 50% or more in best PQ mode.3 In timed testing, the HP Color LaserJet 3800 can print a suite of 21 files in best PQ mode in only 18.6 minutes vs. 73.5 minutes for Dell.4 Unparalleled print quality Be sure to examine print samples when comparing these two devices, because HPs innovative ImageREt 3600 technology allows the Color LaserJet 3800 to deliver results that are noticeably superior to the Dell 5100cns best print quality (1,200 dpi). Dell has three image-transfer steps, whereas HPs single transfer step ensures Color LaserJet 3800 output has crisp text and edges and accurate color-plane registration. Superior processing During our testing of the Dell 5100cn, several complex files with graphics, images, and text consistently failed to print due to memory errors, meaning Dell users may have to add memory to print reliably in best PQ mode. The HP Color LaserJet 3800 did not exhibit these problems with the same files.

Minutes to print a suite of 21 files (183) pages in best print-quality modeBased on the manufacturers published product specifications, the Dell 5100cn requires a new imaging unit and transfer roller every 35,000 pages plus a new fuser at 100,000 pages, whereas the HP Color LaserJet 3800 does not require any replacement parts within the first 140,000 pages. 2 Based on HP testing of five Dell 5100cn printers. 3 Although Dells specifications for the 5100cn, which is rated at up to 25 color ppm and 35 black-and-white ppm, say it slows to one-half engine speed in best print-quality mode, HP testing revealed the device can slow down to as little as one-sixth its rated speed. 4 Based on HP testing. Files were a mix from multiple applications with various levels of complexity.
