Summary: Which Printer Should You Choose?

Choose M141A if you need:

  • A smaller and lighter multifunction printer weighing 5.39 kg instead of 12.6 kg.
  • Lower printing power consumption at 357 W, compared with 510 W.
  • Direct USB printing, copying, and scanning, with the product listed as available in the supplied data.

Choose 4103dw if you need:

  • A4 print and copy speeds of 40 ppm or cpm, compared with 20 on the M141A.
  • A 50-sheet ADF and automatic duplex printing for multi-page documents.
  • Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, mobile printing, and a 350-sheet input capacity.
  • Up to 1200 × 1200 dpi printing and scanning with 512 MB of memory.

Decision: The 4103dw is the best overall due to its clear advantages in speed, document handling, connectivity, and resolution. The M141A remains more suitable when lower weight and a smaller footprint matter, and it is currently listed as available.

What Is the Difference Between HP LaserJet MFP M141A Multifunction Printer and HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4103dw Printer?

Both are monochrome laser multifunction printers offering printing, copying, and scanning. Each uses CIS scanning, supports colour scans and A4 paper, and neither includes fax functionality.

The major differences strongly favour the 4103dw. It prints and copies at 40 ppm or cpm on A4, twice the M141A's 20 ppm or cpm. It also adds a 50-sheet ADF, automatic duplex printing, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, and Mopria. Its input capacity is 350 sheets instead of 150, its memory is 512 MB instead of 64 MB, and its print and scan resolution reaches 1200 × 1200 dpi instead of 600 × 600 dpi.

The M141A benefits users who need a lighter, smaller device with lower printing power consumption and direct USB operation. The 4103dw better serves workflows involving larger document batches, wireless printing, higher paper capacity, and higher toner yields. Based on the supplied stock data, the M141A is available while the 4103dw is unavailable.
