Samsung CLP-680ND Toner Cartridges

Samsung CLP-680ND Printer Review

Not every buyer wants extra multifunction features, so the Samsung CLP-680ND is a fairly compact color laser printer with features like networking and automatic duplexing that make it a good small office machine. It can produce up to 25 pages per minute in both color and monochrome, and affordable Samsung CLP-680ND printer toner keeps running costs down.

One of the most impressive features of the CLP-680 is its sharp resolution of up to 9600x600 dpi, which provides high-quality prints, though lower settings will be faster. The first page out time of 17 seconds is adequate, but might be a bit slower than a busy office would like. The standard input paper tray holds 250 sheets, and a bypass tray can hold 50 sheets. An extra 500-sheet paper tray is available as an upgrade as well.

Despite its fast speeds and sharp quality, the CLP-680ND is still quite compact in design. It measures 12.3x16.5x17.8 inches, with a weight of 44.4 pounds. This means that even small offices can benefit from its excellent features. The control panel has a full keypad and a two-line LCD screen for displaying information, and a front-mounted USB port allows users to connect flash memory and other devices for direct printing.

A single "Eco" button on the control panel automatically saves paper by enabling the duplexing mode for two-sided printing, and reduces the use of Samsung CLP-680ND toner cartridges with only a small sacrifice in quality. High-yield Samsung CLP-680ND toner cartridges have more than double the capacity of standard versions, reducing the cost per page significantly.

With quick printing speeds and a high resolution, the Samsung CLP-680ND is a solid solution for small offices or even busy home users. Running costs are low, and wired networking and duplexing are great additions, though lack of wireless support and a slow first page out time are minor drawbacks.
