Archived from groups: comp.periphs.printers (More info?)

Hi all,

I have to make a choice between two Laser color printer:
A dell 5100 cn and an HP 3500 n.

What do you mind about Dell? It seems robust and fast, but HP had more
experience in printer world...

Thanks for your response !

Bye

You want more info? Dell printers are generally made by Lexmark. More
complaints are made about Lexmark printers than any other I have come
across. They rarely, if ever, print as well as Canon, Epson or HP.
They are built down to a price. Dell makes the cartridge holders Dell
specific so you can only purchase from them and then charge twice as
much as anyone else for the privilege of purchasing them. How much
more info would you like?
