Samsung ML-1665 Toner Cartridges

Samsung ML-1665 Printer Review

A low-volume monochrome laser printer is designed specifically for small office use or to serve as a personal printer. These devices are not intended to handle heavy duty printing needs nor can it produce intricate, complex graphics tasks. With a monthly duty cycle of only 5,000 prints, the Samsung ML-1665 will work well within small workgroups or homes with simple needs. This unit measures 13.4x7.2x8.8 inches and weighs only 9.2 pounds, which is ideal for installation and storage.

Compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems, the ML-1665 will be an easy fit anywhere. It has a standard USB port for single-PC connection. If network capabilities are a necessity, a separate universal ethernet adapter will need to be purchased. There are two input paper trays that can hold 150 sheets and an output tray that holds a maximum of 100 sheets. The only thing truly versatile about this Samsung device is its ability to print on various media types, such as label, transparencies, envelopes and cardstock.

There is a 8 MB memory that is built into the unit and it offers manual duplex printing capabilities. Upon purchase, users will also receive a single black starter Samsung ML-1665 toner cartridge that can produce only 700 pages before needing to be replaced. Replacement Samsung ML-1665 toner cartridges are available directly from the manufacturer and from third party suppliers. The replacement toners have a maximum page yield of 1,500 prints.

The Samsung ML-1665 toner helps create a professional resolution of 1200x600 dpi, which should deliver crisp and professional text documents. Graphics documents may not print with such precision. A nice bonus offered by the ML-1665 is the ability to make copies, but it still lacks the flashy features found on most laser printers on the market, not to mention color capabilities.
