The Ever Stylish Samsung ML 1630 Printer With Samsung ML 1630 Compatible Toner

The Samsung ML 1630 printer using ML 1630 replacement toner is device taken from the SCX 4500. It is sleek and affordable. For around $200, you can get a basic monochrome laser printer that looks like it came from a sci-fi novel. It is a little expensive, but the design is what makes it worth the money. This is perfect device for a high-end home or office. If you have a nice home, the last thing you need is an ugly and bulky laser printer that does not go well with the decor.

It is about 13.1 x 14.8 inches big and 4.8 inches tall. The machine has touch sensitive buttons that can be used for power and cancelling the current print job. If you really want to turn the device completely off, you would need to look in the back, with this switch a little inconvenient for some. The blue LEDs on top will tell you the number of pages printed.

It has a transparent paper tray that holds 100 sheets. The tray's capacity is a little small if you compare it to other laser printers. In addition, the printer has issues with thick media and it cannot accommodate legal size paper.

The package is bundled with a Samsung compatible toner that can print 1,000 pages. If you want to replace it, you can purchase a toner cartridge that can print 2,000 pages for just about $70. This means each page will cost 3.5 cents, which is quite expensive for a laser printer. Most printers under the same price range can do it for 2.7 cents or lower. If you print more than 1,000 pages in a month, this printer is not for you. You may want to look for alternatives because this is not classed as a heavy-duty machine.

The machine can print 17 pages per minute for graphics, which is the average speed of a printer in its class. The Samsung ML 1630 was either slightly slower or on par with most printers we have tested against it.

The device's printing quality was better than most of its counterparts. The text and graphics were sharp and clear. Even if you print a dark grayscale picture, you will not even notice the compression.

It has a 150 MHz processor and 8 MB memory that is able to cater to basic printing needs. The machine can reach a maximum resolution of 1,200 x 600 dpi. The resolution is somewhat limited compared to other printers that offer 1,200 x 1,200 dpi.

The ML 1630 software and drivers support Windows 2000, XP, and Vista. It even supports Mac OS X 10.3 to 10.4 and Linux operating systems. The device can be plugged in to a computer via USB. Unfortunately, USB is the only way to plug the device to a PC. In addition, this device does not have any Ethernet port, which means you would need to buy additional accessories.

Overall, the Samsung ML 1630 printer is a good buy for people who do not want a bulky and ugly laser printer in their home. As for the features, it is a bit limited compared to a printer under the same price range. It is a choice between sleek style of the ML 1630 printer or the features and capacity of the bulky ones.

Despite a few limitations, the toner puts this printer right into the category with the higher end devices. Offering exceptional prints, cartridges can often be found online from reputable toner dealers at surprisingly good prices.
