Samsung CLP 500 Printer – Budget-Friendly Color Printing Printer

The Samsung CLP 500 printer is an elegant and functional machine. The price tag runs around $249. This is a great return on your investment if you need a high quality and a fast color laser printer for your office. It will be able to do pretty much anything you want with the Samsung CLP 500 bulk toner producing the gorgeous results you’ve been looking for in a user-friendly machine.

Speed is a great selling point. It has been improved from previous models. The black and white printing speed is set at 21 pages a minute, while color will take 5 pages per minute. Starting time, like most printers, is a little slow, taking a few minutes to warm up and be ready for action. This is not really a disadvantage if you can remember to switch it on a couple of minutes before you use it.

The speed of the connection cables is also great.  The USB 2.0 is 40 times quicker than the printers that use USB 1.1. Another winning feature in the connectivity department is a standard IEEE-1284 parallel port included in the package for free. It comes with an optional dual wired/wireless interface network card, which if you like to work in a cable free office is a huge advantage.

One of its greatest selling points is that it has automatic duplexing. In English that translates to being able to do double-sided printing. This does slow it down, but you will save money on toner and paper. This feature makes printing booklets and guide manuals easy, just tell your printer what you want to do and staple the center of the end result to enjoy your professional looking booklet. However, make sure that when you use it in this mode, you do not try to pull the page out before it has finished duplexing. I say this because the printer has a somewhat strange way of letting the paper out and then dragging it all the way back to finish the process. I would recommend walking away and letting the printer do its job.

Technology-adverse users will love this easy to use printer. A built in LCD window with printer menus and options comes standard, which makes printing all that much easier. Compatibility with PC and Mac is not an issue, a nice extra for offices that use both operating systems.

It is quiet for a laser printer, but if you are a Mercedes and Audi-type owner who was willing to pay for near-complete silence when drive, you might want to invest a little more in a different machine. However, with normal business noises what they are, you shouldn’t be bothered at all by the 48 decibels of noise it creates.

The printer is easy to open and changing cartridges is not at all complicated. As usual with new printers, the complimentary Samsung CLP printer toner will not print more than 1,500 pages, so you might want to buy one soon and have it on hand.

Image quality is set at 1,200 pixels per inch, which is higher quality than you will ever need in an office printer. RAM memory is not overly impressive at sixty five megabytes of RAM, but you are not likely to need more.

The Samsung CLP-500 printer at $249 is a great buy for small businesses and demanding users who want high quality, speed, low noise and duplexing features without the high price.

This high quality for a good price extends to the Samsung 500 bulk toner.  Online retailers offer many types of Samsung cartridges, as well as ink and toner for other brands, at such amazing prices it makes any printer ready to be used to its full capacity.
