HP LaserJet Pro MFP 3101fdw Wireless Black & White All-in-One Laser Printer, Scanner, Copier, Fax, Best-for-Office (3G628F)

Following the slow and unreliable Epson inkjet we fought with far too long, this printer is a gem. Easy set-up, fast, quiet, double sided, no problems. Have not used the scanner yet, so can't speak to that feature, but I recommend this printer. Being for home, personal use, we had no need for a color printer, so this one fits our needs.

I received the printer the day after I ordered it. It replaced a 5 year old color Laser JET. THE SETUP TOOK ABOUT 5 minutes and performed perfectly. I was amazed at how fast the first copy came out. The only disappointment was that the two sided copying required me to manually put the second side in. It does not do duplex scanning. Two sided printing from the computer worked just fine.

Very pleasantly surprised at the quality of my “used” printer. So happy I bought it!!! I love HP

Easy quick set up! Works well. Only had 1 week though. We shall see?

We finally replaced our old HP LaserJet for this one and after using the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 3101fdw for about 3 weeks, I would rate this device 1 out of 5 stars. My experience with this printer has been extremely disappointing — especially when measured against its high price, expected performance, and typical reliability associated with HP. The combination of poor print quality, device failure shortly after purchase, and underwhelming overall performance makes this a regrettable purchase. From the outset, I was struck by how expensive this all‑in‑one printer is relative to what it actually delivers. Given its positioning as an office‑ready machine — capable of printing, scanning, copying, and faxing — I expected higher build quality and consistently sharp output. In reality, the device felt overpriced for its actual performance. Many lower‑cost HP models or competitors offer better reliability and print fidelity. One of the most frustrating aspects of this printer was the print quality. Despite being a laser device (which typically produces crisp text and clean graphics), the output was frequently fuzzy, uneven, or faded, even when settings were configured for the highest quality. Text edges lacked sharpness, and grayscale graphics looked washed out. Several test pages were essentially unusable for professional documents. I tried multiple adjustments: changing print settings, updating drivers, using different paper stock — but nothing noticeably improved the output. For a device marketed as “best for office use,” the print quality was unacceptably inconsistent. The worst part of this experience was the fact that the printer stopped working entirely after roughly 3 weeks of light use. One morning I powered it on and the control panel failed to respond, and the device would no longer connect to Wi‑Fi. All attempts to reset the printer, reboot the network, or update firmware failed to restore functionality. This complete failure so early into ownership is not only inconvenient but suggests poor hardware reliability. Even during the short time it was working, setting up the wireless connection was frustrating. The Wi‑Fi setup wizard was slow and inconsistent. The connection dropped intermittently, forcing me to reconfigure it multiple times. Scanning over the network to a computer or phone was equally unreliable — sometimes failing altogether or requiring repeated attempts. Why This Earns 1 Star: High price with poor value: Costs more than comparable printers yet performs worse. Bad print quality: Fuzzy, inconsistent text and graphics even at best settings. Premature failure: Printer stopped functioning after roughly 3 weeks. Connectivity problems: Unreliable wireless setup and scanning. Overall reliability: Did not meet basic expectations for an office‑ready HP device. Final Verdict; 1 out of 5 stars. Despite its premium pricing and feature list, this printer delivered unusable print quality, unreliable performance, and failed entirely in a matter of weeks. I cannot recommend it under any circumstances — especially not for office or professional use — and would advise steering clear unless you want significant frustration and wasted expenditure.

Nice MFC machine. You cannot use instant ink on this model though. I’m not really a fan of HP’s instant ink program anyway. I mean why do you have to continue to pay them monthly to print documents? Be aware also, that the printer cartridges have to have the HP chip installed. Generic cartridges will not work. (Ahh…the good old days) After all that the scanning feature is super fast, and mobile faxing is good for multiple pages. Last note, I wouldn’t buy a HP printer that doesn’t have a screen display or function. I replaced a HP printer that only had the multi colored light. Too have to troubleshoot, if you run into a problem after the initial setup is completed. (like moving, or using it after being held in storage)

Great printer for the home. Had it for just over a month but it’s working great. Cant tell you about toner usage but I’m still using the one that came with. The printer was super easy to setup. This is my first printer with automatic double sided printing and I love it

WORKS GREAT
