The HP LaserJet 3100xi offers monochrome laser printing technology and can serve not only as a printer, but as a copier and a scanner as well. The unit comes with a disappointing print speed of 6 pages per minute which is also the same rating for copying. A sheet fed scanner is installed rather a flatbed scanner, thus it canƒ?t be used to scan or copy bulky documents like books and magazines. Just by looking at its features, anyone can definitely say that itƒ?s more suitable to use as a personal printer. Duty cycle and paper capacity, even the HP C3906A (06A) toner cartridge you need for it defines the unit as a printer for low-volume printing.
