Great print quality, and quiet.However, it does not work well with Airport ever since I upgraded my OS to 10.5. If you plan to use wireless with a PC, I have heard that works but can't confirm. Although I had read reviews saying it did not work well wirelessly, I decided to give it a try based on otherwise good reviews.At first all went well.
This is a real pain when I am working wirelessly, which is most of the time.It still works fine if plugged directly into my MacBook Pro via USB.Wireless is a futile effort. But don't buy if you plan to use wirelessly with a Mac.One other minor inconvenience: the paper tray is rather small, and holds about 50 sheets. I've read numerous blogs on the problem, and solutions are temporary at best.If you plan to use this printer plugged directly into your computer, then it is a good buy.
I bought this printer as a replacement for a 5 year old Brother printer. I have to reset Airport for each and every print job. If you print lots of large jobs, I'd consider another printer.
As a printer it is excellent. It will do one print job, then freeze.
No jams so far, and I'm 1000 pages in. Don't buy it if you want a feeder, print a lot of card stock, need to scan/duplex/copy, print photos, fax, etc. After a glitch in my Canon Pixma printer which caused me to break the thing with frustration, I found myself in the not-so-unique position of buying a new printer. Yet at the same time I wanted to be able to scan. In short, buy this printer if you need to print out a lot of basic monochrome sheets. That printer was easier to setup than others had me believe, but it consumed so much energy that my lights flickered with every print. What I like about it is that it is sleek, it doesn't consume a whole lot of desk space, it is quiet, and it works.
If you're sick of all the software bundles from the likes of Canon and HP, you will be pleased with Samsung. The directions were on a giant sheet of paper, basically plug it in, install driver disk, and go.
Before I tell you why I liked the Samsung ML-1630, let me say that I initially tried a Brother HL-2170w. In addition, the setup was so quick and easy that my 80 year old grandmother could do it, no problem.
I wanted something that could print speedily, looked nice, and didn't cost a lot per print. The bundled cartridge is roughly half the capacity of a new cartridge, but I'm easily going to get more than the 1000 page estimate.
It does one job but it does it well. After due consideration, I think I came to best decision: buy a scanner and a simple monochrome laser printer.
Alas, I decided to buy this printer.
Quick delivery and everything was fine. Quiet, efficient, looks good and has a small footprint. This is actually my second one. Excellent Printer.
Print fast, nice design and was able to connect it to my $5 Netgear Printer Server for wireless printing. This has been the quietest and fastest printer I've ever had and will ever need. I've bought this printer of Circuit City for $30 on it's last day, I was surprised that they still had a printer in stock but I was glad they did because I've gotten a great deal on it. Easy to set up and better than those inkjet printers for b&w printing. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a laser printer. Was able to sneak the power and usb cord with the price, so I did not have to spend more money for the usb cord. I was amazed when I checked it out that it worked magnificent.
It warms up quickly and prints much faster than my old Bubble Jet.The design allows me to place it on my desk and place items on top of it (2nd monitor). There are no exterior buttons and functions. Works great with Vista 64.Strongly Recommended This a simple, fast and effective mono-laser printer. It is sleek and attactive.
