HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 79,000, a brand new and sealed monochrome laser multifunction unit that prints, copies, scans, and faxes at up to 40 pages per minute on A4. The HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw carries a 2.7-inch colour touchscreen, automatic two-sided printing, a 50-sheet single-pass duplex document feeder, Gigabit Ethernet, and dual-band Wi-Fi covering both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Collect it from Mascom International at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for countrywide delivery.
Mascom International stocks the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw for workteams of up to ten people. Accountants filing KRA returns, lawyers assembling bundles for Milimani Law Courts, school administrators running end-of-term reports, SACCO branch officers, and clinic managers all hit the same wall: an entry-level inkjet that jams at page 60 and costs several shillings per page in ink. The HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw answers that with laser output at 40 pages per minute, a 50-sheet duplex feeder, and an 80,000-page monthly duty cycle.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya, Mascom International states the running-cost numbers before you buy: the preinstalled HP 151A cartridge covers 3,050 pages, and the HP 151X high-yield cartridge covers 9,700. Customers across Nairobi report that single-pass double-sided scanning saves them the most time, since a 40-page contract digitises in about a minute. At Mascom International, we're seeing offices in Westlands, Upper Hill, and Nairobi CBD replace two machines with one HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw. Test it at our Kimathi Street counter, or order it for delivery to any of the 47 counties. Our team will load paper and run a live duplex scan for you.
Common Questions About the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw
How fast does the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw print in a busy office?
Up to 40 pages per minute on A4, with the first page landing in 6.3 seconds. A 50-page tender document finishes in roughly 75 seconds while you wait at the machine. Two-sided printing runs at 34 images per minute, so duplex jobs barely slow down. There is no warm-up delay from sleep either, since the first sheet arrives 8.8 seconds after you press print. That matters when eight people share one queue on a deadline morning.
Can this printer scan both sides of a page in one pass?
Yes. The 50-sheet document feeder reads front and back simultaneously at up to 46 images per minute in black and white. A 40-page double-sided contract becomes a searchable PDF in about a minute, with no flipping and re-feeding. Colour duplex scanning runs at 34 images per minute. Scans go straight to email, a shared network folder, or a USB stick, which suits offices digitising client files, title deeds, patient records, or KRA-related paperwork ahead of an audit.
How many people can share one HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw?
HP designs the 4103fdw for workteams of up to ten users, and the 80,000-page monthly duty cycle backs that. HP recommends 750 to 4,000 pages per month for long service life, which covers a typical Nairobi law firm, clinic, school office, or SACCO branch. Past ten heavy users, queue times stretch and toner changes turn weekly. For an office of three to ten staff, one unit handles printing, copying, scanning, and fax without a second machine.
Does the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw print from phones and over Wi-Fi?
Yes, through dual-band Wi-Fi on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, plus Apple AirPrint and Mopria certification. Staff print from an iPhone or Android handset on the office network with no driver install. Wi-Fi Direct lets a visiting client print from their own phone without joining your network at all. Self-healing Wi-Fi restarts the radio automatically when the link drops, which helps in Nairobi CBD buildings where the 2.4 GHz band is crowded.
What does printing cost per page and which toner cartridges fit?
The 4103fdw takes two cartridges: the HP 151A rated at 3,050 pages and the HP 151X rated at 9,700 pages. The 151X drops the cost per page considerably and is the sensible choice for any office printing over 1,000 pages monthly. One 151X cartridge lasts roughly two and a half months at HP's recommended 4,000-page ceiling. Economode cuts toner use further on internal drafts where print darkness matters less than speed, stretching a cartridge across several extra weeks of routine paperwork.
How much paper does it hold before someone has to reload it?
350 sheets as standard, split between a 250-sheet main tray and a 100-sheet multipurpose tray. That covers most of a working day for a ten-person office. The optional 550-sheet feeder tray raises total input to 900 sheets, useful during exam printing, audit season, or tender submissions. The multipurpose tray accepts 60 to 200 g/m² stock, so letterheads, certificates, labels, and up to ten envelopes run through the same machine without a separate feeder or an outside printing shop.
Does the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw handle Kenya's power supply and climate?
Yes. The built-in power supply accepts 220 to 240 volts at 50/60 Hz, matching Kenya Power's mains directly with no step-down transformer needed. The unit is rated for 10 to 32.5°C and 30 to 70% relative humidity, covering Nairobi, Mombasa, and Kisumu conditions year-round. Laser printing draws 510 watts in short bursts, so pair it with a line-interactive UPS if your area sees frequent outages that could interrupt a long job or corrupt a queued scan.
How does it compare to Canon and Brother mono laser multifunction printers?
Against the Canon i-SENSYS MF453dw and the Brother MFC-L5915DW, the 4103fdw matches on 40 ppm class speed but pulls ahead on single-pass duplex scanning at 46 images per minute, with Gigabit Ethernet fitted as standard. Canon's touchscreen is larger. Brother's toner yields run higher on some models. HP's edge in Kenya is supply availability, since HP 151A and 151X cartridges are stocked widely across Nairobi, which shortens downtime after a toner run-out and keeps spare parts easy to source locally.
Is the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103fdw worth KSh 79,000 for a small Kenyan business?
For an office printing 1,000 pages or more monthly, yes. Entry-level inkjets under KSh 30,000 cost several times more per page and stall under sustained loads. At KSh 79,000 you get laser speed, duplex scanning, fax, Gigabit Ethernet, and an 80,000-page duty cycle in a single unit. Offices printing under 200 pages monthly should look at a cheaper single-function laser instead, because the 4103fdw is built for volume and only pays back its price through steady daily use.
