Canon LBP3100 Home/Small office laser printer review

The top opens forwards to make the output tray for the printer. The front of the Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 folds down to become a 150 sheet feed tray which includes a hinged cover behind the front panel which folds out to cover and keep dust off the paper. Being attached it means the dust cover does not have to be stored separately when not in use. A single page slot is located just above the dust cover which can be used for a variety of purposes.

There are few controls on the Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 with a single green LED for power and data set to the left of the top cover as well as a resume button. The rear has a USB socket.

Getting the Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 up and running is very easy as the only thing you need to install is a driver. The toner cartridge slots easily into the printer once you have opened the top cover. You get a 700 page starter toner cartridge with the machine but the replacement 1870B002AA will do as much as 1,500 pages and can be got as genuine Canon or non-Canon varieties.

The print speed for the LBP3100 worked out at 15.2 pages per minute (ppm) which is close the the stated speed of 16ppm by Canon and a 15 x 10cn photo was completed in 15 seconds. Considering the cost of this machine these results are more than acceptable.

The Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 prints quickly and, mostly, creates prints of a quality to match. Text was clear and well defined but grayscale did show a little banding and different tones were not as clearly defined as they might have been.

Photo prints were not that great a level of detail that was a little disappointing. Admittedly this is a mono printer and as such it seems unlikely that anyone would use it for series photo printing.

With a noise level of up to 63dBA, Canon claims 50dBA, you might not want to place the Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 close to where you are sitting.

In conclusion, the Canon I-SENSYS LBP3100 is a pretty good everyday mono printer for under a £100. It is quick and produces good text prints although grayscale was a little disappointing and photos were little more than OK.

How do I "unrelease" an ink cartridge in Canon iP4200?

I bought a Calidad 924 compatible black PGI-5BK for my Canon iP4200 printer. Since I'm not using genuine ink, the errors come up and according to Calidad, I had to let the iP4200 release the ink. Now I've stopped buying Calidad and am using genuine. However, even thought I install genuine, the black 5BK slot is shown as empty on the computer, so how can I "unrelease" to show the ink level?

You can't.

When you 'released' the ink, you basically agreed to invalidate your warranty and Canon's no long obliged to fix your printer if your ink screw up the printer.

Therefore, even though you may have genuine ink in there now, they wouldnt know if the previous non-original ink has damaged the printhead, hence they wont be responsible for the printhead now.
