Is this the right printer for you?

Who the HP Smart Tank 5101 All-in-One Printer is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You print 200-800 pages a month and want very low per-page ink cost.
  • You scan single pages on a flatbed and don't need an ADF.
  • You print mixed B&W and color and want both economical.
  • You'll keep the printer for 4+ years and the ink tank economics pay back.
  • You want dual-band Wi-Fi and HP Smart app for mobile printing.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if you're replacing an HP cartridge inkjet and tired of cartridge prices.
  • It's fine if you mostly print and scan rarely.
  • It's fine if you print color photos occasionally — quality is decent home-grade.
  • It's fine if your duplex needs are low — manual flip on the rare two-sided job.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you scan multi-page documents — get the Smart Tank 7001 with ADF and duplex.
  • Skip this if you print under 100 pages a month — a cartridge inkjet costs less up front.
  • Skip this if you need fax — Smart Tank 7301 has fax.
  • Skip this if you need a touchscreen — the 1.45-inch display is barebones.
  • Skip this if you need to print on cardstock or specialty media — Smart Tank is plain-paper-focused.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

HP's Smart Tank 5101 is an entry-level cartridge-free inkjet AiO — 12 ppm B&W / 5 ppm color with refillable ink tanks instead of cartridges. Print, copy, scan. 100-sheet input, flatbed scanner only (no ADF), 1.45-inch monochrome display, dual-band Wi-Fi, USB, mobile app printing. Includes enough bottled ink for roughly 6,000 B&W or 6,000 color pages. The 1 thing buyers regret: not understanding the Smart Tank value proposition. Smart Tank machines cost more up front than cartridge inkjets but the ink economics are 5-10x better — if you print 200+ pages a month, the Smart Tank pays back the price difference in a year. If you print under 100 pages a month, it doesn't. The other regret is buying the 5101 when the 7001 (with ADF and duplex) was a better fit. If you ever scan multi-page documents or print two-sided, the 7001 is worth the upgrade. The 5101 is for the lightest scan workflows — single pages on the flatbed.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 3 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging HP machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • "Been using this for my home office for about 8 months now. The tank system saves me a ton compared to cartridges, and the print quality is solid for documents and photos. Scanning and copying work great too, though the software could be less clunky."
  • "Good workhorse printer for a small business. The ink tanks last forever which is what I needed, but it can be slow when handling multiple jobs and the wifi connection drops sometimes."
  • "Grabbed this for my daughter's college apartment since she was going through ink cartridges constantly. The tank refills are dirt cheap and barely a mess. It's been sitting in a dorm for a year without issues."
