Samsung ML-4500 Toner Cartridges

Samsung ML-4500 Printer Review

Laser monochrome printers are some of the most popular units on the market. The reason is so many people generally just print black-and-white text for work or school purposes. While there are giant monochrome laser printers out there, there are also some made particularly for home office users. One example of these desktop machines is the Samsung ML-4500. Essentially created for home office users who print only in black-and-white, it can produce about 8 pages per minute. Resolutions of 600x600 dpi are even possible using the black printer toner. Its size is very small at only 13x13.9x9 inches. Nearly anyone can lift it too, thanks to the very light 14.8 pound weight. Envelopes, plain paper, labels and transparencies are all supported by the ML-4500.

As far as reviews go, this Samsung does decently; however, there are a couple of concerns with it. Most find that it produces high quality prints. Another thing people tend to really like is the low upfront price. The ML 4500 is easy to setup, according to users, and replacing printer ink is simple too. There have been complaints when it comes to paper jams—which are standard for most laser printers—and some have complained it doesn't work well with Windows 7. There have also been complaints about the cost of maintenance, due to expensive Samsung ML-4500 toner cartridges.

To own this machine without going into debt, buyers should only use remanufactured Samsung ML-4500 toner cartridges from third party vendors. While this printer toner costs only a fraction of the OEM product price, it works just as well. That means that essentially the same prints can be produced for a fraction of the price, depending on what toners are used. Using remanufactured Samsung ML-4500 toner is the best decision for future consumers who require low maintenance costs.
