replacement for Dell 5100cn

[david12345]

hi Dell 5100cn has died and would cost a lot to repair-out of warranty.

4 years ago it was £450 . it is stated as 25 pages per min and monthly duty cycle of 90k pages. However the 51 series now is Dell 5130CDN £799 45 pages per min and 110k pages per month. Not sure what our output is - 20 PCs on win2007 -xp network, but it is increasing. The figures give a comparison of robustness to print demand i suppose.

The Dell 3130cn is only £439 (25 pages/min,70k pages per month), and the HP CP2025dn is £429 (20pages per min, 40k pages per month) but the HP CP2025dn we have on another 20 PCs only lasted 3 months before it had to be sent back and feels quite flimsy compared to the Dell 5100cn. Dell 5130CDN £799 vs Dell 3130cn £439 vs HP CP2025dn £429-advice?

I have a spare one of these will swap it for hp 2605

 

Erm personally if i want a big printer like this i go for used HP 4650. We get them from a local company and they provide 1 year warranty. I have found parts for these printers are cheap if you need them. They are a good work horse.
