Lanier MP 3353 Toner Cartridges

Lanier MP 3353 Printer Review

For a small or medium-sized office, the Lanier MP 3353 multifunction laser copier might have just the right balance of price and performance. Even though it only prints at up to 33 pages per minute, it is quick to respond, with a first page out time of just 4.2 seconds. Most appealing for tight budgets, however, is the low cost of Lanier MP 3353 printer toner supplies.

The base configuration of the unit lacks faxing, which must instead be added as an option. This is a positive cost-saving measure, though, as a majority of buyers will have no need for faxing. Instead, they can utilize the digital scanning feature to turn documents into PDF, TIFF, or JPEG files, then share them via email or even as a URL. The result is a much higher quality file that also doesn't use paper or Lanier MP 3353 toner in the process.

Other highlights for the device include a large touchscreen display, which can display a customized interface for each user, and mobile printing support that lets users print from smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other devices. The paper capacity is upgradeable from the standard 1,150 sheets to a maximum of 3,150 sheets.

Also on the positive side, Lanier MP 3353 toner cartridges are some of the least expensive in its class, and toners are very easy to install from the well-designed access panel. A low cost per page is just as important, and adequately covered by the 11,000-page capacity of Lanier MP 3353 toner cartridges.

The most likely reason for buyers to pass on the MP 3353 would be its slow printing speeds, but that would be missing the point. With so many other great features, such as a large upgradable paper capacity, a 100-sheet ADF, and low-cost supplies, the tradeoffs are more than worth this small sacrifice.
