Samsung ML 1630 – Keep Your Wallet Heavy

Good looking- The Samsung ML 1630 printer boasts with dashingly good looks, there is no two ways about that. This monochrome printer is sleek, slim, in a glossy black design with all the technology and electronics housed in modern double storey slabs. The printer dimensions are a super compact 13×14.7×4.8 inches. The size may be small but the value is big at under US$200.00. The best toner for this printer is the Samsung ML 1630 printer cartridge.

Controls- The printer controls are so easy to operate and understand with only two selection buttons. More style is added to the device by the blue LED screen which shows you pages and print status in words and graphics format.

Print Quality- Text and graphics print quality is well above average at 600x1200dpi considering it’s price range and the fact that it’s a mere monochrome printer. Text is immaculate, crisp, clear outlines with very little to no blemishing or blurring, even with the smallest of font size, gray scale and web printing. Graphics printing is very good with little dithering and banding. However if you prefer super high quality graphics or colour printing rather opt for another model Samsung in a little higher price range or else you are going to be very disappointed.

Paper Type and Size- The greatest disadvantage the printer is it’s very low paper capacity of 100 sheet input and a mere 30 sheet output. Avoid the printer totally if you get bored quickly or are a little slack when it comes to paper loading. On the other hand the duty cycle of the printer is an above average 5000 pages. The printer accepts most of the media sizes including A4, A5, A6, Letter, Executive and B5. When it comes to paper types this little gadget can be a little fussy, rejecting thick media including envelopes and some cards. Other paper types accepted are plain, bond, recycle and label. The printers’ speed is not to shabby at 17 ppm text and 6 ppm graphics printing. However when compared to printers in the same price range it comes in last. A very big pro to the printer is its no-need for warming-up. It goes from start-up to first page print in under 7 seconds, no more waiting for 20 plus for warm-ups.

Port options- No old fashioned interface options here, included with the unit is super speedy USB interface connection for either your computer or camera. Cables are not included with your purchase.

Memory options- A very small amount of memory is included with the printer and unfortunately memory upgrading is not available. So if you are not satisfied with 8 Mb’s memory due to large printing environment or networking rather opt for another printer.

Systems supported- The printer is compatible with all popular operating systems including Apple Mac.

Standard warranty- A 12 month standard warrant is included with your printer purchase, with coverage restrictions on parts and labour. Always use genuine parts and cartridges as it may have an effect on your warranty and proper operation of the device.

Toner- Samsung ML 1630 toner cartridge starter pack is included with your printer. The starter Samsung ML 1630 toner has a capacity of 1000 pages where the normal toner has a 2000 page capacity at a rather expensive US$ 70.00. The Samsung ML 1630 Style At An Affordable Price.
