Samsung SL-M2820 Printer Review

As a single-function laser printer, the Samsung Xpress SL-M2820 may not be set to compete with larger office machines, but it excels as a home or small office device for busy users. It can reach speeds of up to 29 pages per minute, and includes wireless support for easy sharing. Samsung SL-M2820 printer toner supplies are a little expensive, but the unit includes several options for saving on toners.

The unit is referenced as the SL-M2820dw, which highlights both its automatic duplexing feature and its wireless networking. The former can help save paper by printing on both sides of the page, while the latter is great for placing the printer virtually anywhere without the need to run cables around the home or office.

The main tray holds up to 250 sheets of plain paper, but the unit can support alternative media such as envelopes, labels, and transparencies. A single-sheet manual slot is also included so that users don't need to empty the main tray when using other types of media.

The SL-M2820 is quite compact in its design, measuring 7.95x14.49x13.17 inches, and it weighs a little over 15 pounds, even when including the weight of the Xpress SL-M2820 toner cartridge. With a monthly duty cycle of up to 12,000 pages, it can handle a fair amount of printing volume as well.

A Toner Save mode is included to help users make the most of Samsung SL-M2820 toner supplies. While supplies are a little expensive, each Samsung SL-M2820 toner cartridge has a standard yield of around 3,000 pages, which does keep the cost per page down.

For the small office or even a home user, the SL-M2820 is an inexpensive device with excellent speed and output quality. Its wireless capabilities make it easy to set up and to share, but watch out for somewhat high prices on Xpress SL-M2820 toner.
