Thread: Dell 3130cn Color Laser

The driver for PCL 6 and PS 3 to install the Color Laser Printer Dell 3130cn simultaneously on the computer. This principle, we already know from the previous model, Dell 3110cn. In use, this method is useful when you switch between the printer emulations. Then just close the one driver and activate the other - quickly. The Dell 3130cn offers many connections. In addition to the USB and Ethernet interfaces found on the rear side, a parallel port. That there are now as rare as the number of supported operating systems. The printer applies in addition to various versions of Windows with drivers for Mac OS, Linux and Unix.



From the factory comes with a 500-sheet paper cassette and a multipurpose tray for 250 paper. The recording media can be explained by an additional 550 sheet cassette expand further. An automatic duplex unit it does not aim. In the case sits a single-pass printing unit of Xerox, the individual color toners are positioned above the other. For example, the Dell model is indeed rather constructed in the air, but easily operated from the front. Depending on the printer language, we detected significant differences in output quality.

The PCL-color printing was consistently quite dark and had a significant especially in pastel shades of green. The Postscript prints were again a bit lighter and inherently harmonious. Basically, the order of the toner Dell 3130cn fell from satisfied. The fact harmed but the detail, but not the letter of field, which itself turned out well when the font size was low. Dell is sticking to its principle that is mentioned about the exchange of the fuser in the year-on-site exchange service. Thus, the color laser does to favorable cost per page - 5.3 cents for color and 1.1 cents for black and white sheet. At the same time the unit is moderate for the energy: in sleep mode, as it shifted to 5.2 watts. Split off the printer completely from the mains - commendable.
