Sharp MX-3110N Toner Cartridges

Sharp MX-3110N Printer Review

The Sharp MX-3110N multifunction color laser printer features the same large touchscreen control panel and excellent scanning features of the MX-2610N model, but ups the speed to a maximum of 31 pages per minute for quicker performance. Sharp MX-3110N printer toner is affordable, and the unit can handle up to ledger-size documents for versatility, with numerous add-ons available for expansion.

The MX-3110N is sometimes referenced as the MX-3110, but both models are the same. It starts with a fairly anemic 500-sheet paper drawer with a second 100-sheet bypass tray, with optional upgrades to a maximum of 3,100 sheets. With this much room to grow, it can appeal to everything from a small shared office to a large, high-volume workgroup.

1200 dpi printing provides crisp images using the Sharp MX-3110N toner, and features like direct print with the front USB port can be real time savers. On the digital side of things, the scanning features work with the 100-sheet automatic duplexing document feeder for quick scans that can be saved to the internal drive or shared via email among other options.

Perhaps most impressive, though, is the large 10.1-inch touchscreen display that puts features and functions front and center for users. With gestures that will be familiar to tablet users, such as swipe and drag, it can be customized for better efficiency, and a slide-out keyboard is located right beneath the panel for easy data entry.

Color printing means multiple toners to replace, but office managers who do the math will find the cost per page of Sharp MX-3110N toner cartridges very appealing. With yields of 24,000 pages for black and 15,000 for each color, the Sharp MX-3110N toner cartridges have a lot of longevity for large-scale printing operations.

The Sharp MX-3110N is built for customization, from its configurable touchscreen to its expandable paper capacity and upgrade options. Add in its network scanning and low-cost supplies, and it looks much more appealing than most of the competition in its class.
