After noticing these sounds, you’ll notice the blue LED indicator panel on the front. Turning on the printer for the first time, you will be presented with funny little tones and melodies. Compared to my Brother HL-2040 laser which can hold 250 sheets (which seems to be the norm) needless to say you will be replacing paper rather quickly. The Samsung ML-1630 can only hold 100 sheets of paper which really sucks if you’re printing lots of things. Now making the world’s smallest laser printer (according to Samsung) threes obviously going to be some compromises. It is very simple to get this printer up and running very quickly. There are instructions on the unit itself but is not needed. Simply lift up the top and insert the toner contacts down. The toner cartridge installation is a snap and very simple. That’s one of the downsides of owning something glossy and black because dust collection happens pretty fast and having to constantly wipe dust away from the unit in order to have it look pretty again sometimes makes you tired. The printer is very minimalistic as it essentially has three buttons power switch at the rear and two sensitive touch buttons on the top.īeing glossy and plastic means it’s probably going to attract dust, and in this case it’s no different. Its glossy black plastic looks sleek and wonderful to stare at it almost doesn’t even look like a printer. I’ve also got to point out that the printer is dead gorgeous.

The paper catcher really kills the whole sleek look. I mean a plastic clear attachment on shiny black object makes it stick out like a sore thumb.

I’ve got to point out first hand that the paper catcher really should have been integrated and full size because your floor can become the paper catcher.

Opening the box will reveal the Samsung ML-1630 printer, toner cartridge, quick install guide, CD with driver/software, power cable, and a plastic snap-on paper catcher. The Samsung ML-1630 comes in an attractive corrugated box which looks really fancy and attracts attention in the stores. In terms of resolution the ML-1630 can do up to 1200圆00dpi whereas my Brother HL-2040 unit can do up to 2400圆00dpi so there isn’t much headroom with the Samsung. The ML-1630 is definitely quieter than my Brother unit and to others I’ve come across. The printer is advertised as being quiet compared to normal lasers with a operation rating of less than 45dBA which is certainly possible. If you need more memory than you are out of luck as it is not upgradeable for the ML-1630. The Samsung ML-1630 can print up to 17ppm compared to the rated 20ppm on my Brother HL-2040 and has 8MB of memory which is fine for most of us.

Thinking long term is always a good idea and having an inkjet will probably cost you twice as much to run compared to the laser printer. Inkjets on the other hand will yield you around maybe 300-500 pages before it needs replacing. Typical laser toners will yield you anywhere from 2,000 to 3,000 pages from just one toner that costs a little bit more than inkjet cartridges. Simply put laser printers generally yield you larger amounts of pages on just one toner cartridge. Be careful when comparing ppm numbers of lasers and inkjets because some manufactures like to base numbers off of printing in lowest quality draft mode making their products look faster than it really is.Īnd we all know if you have a small business or simply just print tons of pages that the life of the ink source is a major factor because it relates directly to your cost over time. Generally, laser printers offer better quality b/w text prints as compared to their counterparts (to my knowledge if you like to print images in color, stick with inkjet) and print faster per minute, although inkjets are slowly bridging the gap in terms of speed.

Well forget about all that nonsense because Samsung has created a monochrome laser printer that tries to change all those perceptions.Īdvantages that lasers have over inkjets are print quality, speed and toner life. That is why inkjet printers have been popular for most folks as they provide a smaller footprint. Most laser printers are big, chunky, heavy, and take up easily a good portion of desk space. Traditionally one of the reasons that have kept most people away from having a laser printer has got to be the footprint factor.
