Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've owned this Samsung MFP now for about a month--replacing the last HP inkjet I will ever own. I don't print a ton of stuff, maybe 10 pages a day on average--so speed is not an issue--this one isn't fast but is more than adequate for a small office.
Here's a fast summary of my experience so far:
* The print quality is outstanding, the scanner works great
* The drivers installed flawlessly the first time (even on Vista-- believe it or not)
* The networking installed the first time-and worked after a 2-3 minute installation--all I had to do was supply an IP address-period, nothing else.
* unlike other printers I've had, the network connection on this Samsung has worked continously since the first install-I've not had to restarteven once.
* Why not 5 stars? It literally dims my lights--they flicker when it is running--may be too much computer equipment on the same circuit--I do have a lot of equipment in my office-so this may not be a problem you'll encounter
So far this is easily the best printer/scanner/copier/fax I have owned--and the replacement toner is only about $45 each (I priced them BEFORE buying)-- and if you shop around-you might find this machine on sale--making it almost a no brainer. The bottomline is that it works, it installed easily, and the quality is excellent.
Update 08/2010:
I now have owned this for over 18 months--and I still would give it 4-5 stars-the only reason for not 5 is still because it causes my room lights to flicker when it is operating (not when it is in idle mode). Since my first review-I have had zero issues with the operation of this printer--and am very happy with the speed and quality of the scans, faxes, prints, etc.
Ironically, I found the little brother to this printer (CLP-310) on sale for cheaper than buying replacement toners so I bought it just for the toner and 'spare parts'--it is a wireless model-and now I use it as my primary-it doesn't dim the lights...but it is the same print engine as far as I can tell-so the quality is just as good. If you don't need scanning and faxing, the CLP-310 is a better choice for just printing-since it is wireless.
And the network set-up on it was just as easy and flawless...
Hope this helps.
