Product Description

Product Description

Compact, powerful and easy to use, the Samsung CLP-320 includes advanced colour printers designed with high quality performance and usability in mind. Suitable for any home or small office, this colour laser printer delivers sharp, consistent printouts with durable text and graphics. User-friendly features, a variety of connectivity options and a high-quality output make it easy to create a lasting impression with colour prints.

From the monitor to the page with just one touch

The CLP-320's Print Screen button--conveniently located on the printer control panel--lets you print the contents from your screen, quickly and easily, even when you're away from your desk. Just one touch is all that it takes. One simple press of a button prints your screen, as it appears on your monitor. Hold the button for more than two seconds and the CLP-320 prints the last object that you activated on your monitor. Now you can print anything, anytime.

Ideal for small, stylish spaces and busy places

Measuring an ultra compact 388 x 313 x 243mm (15.3 x 12.3 x 9.6inch), the Samsung CLP-320 series easily fits on any desktop leaving plenty of room for you to get your work done. It also offers the perfect blend of beauty and practicality. With rounded edges, glossy crème grey top and chic black finish everywhere else, you won't want to hide this printer under a pile of papers. And you'll really enjoy the convenient one touch print-screen button and power switch located on the front panel for fast, easy access. How's that for accommodating design?

Capture what catches your eye

Samsung's AnyWeb Print software lets you go hunting and gathering on the Web. You can utilize the CLP-320 to easily select, drag, and drop content from different web pages onto a printable scrap board in your browser window, all while you surf the web. It's an easy way to collect, arrange, and edit useful reference points and resources you can only find on the web for big projects--or even just for fun.

Your printing experience just got a lot more colourful

The CLP-320 easily delivers colour accuracy through premium quality 2,400 x 600 dpi resolution with absolute ease. Also, with toner particles that are smaller and more uniform in shape than traditional toner particles, you'll be impressed with accurate colours and beautiful, glossy printouts.

A soft approach to energy efficiency

In today's green office environment, there's simply no room for energy-hogging printers. That's why the Samsung CLP-320 features an easy-to-reach power button right on the control panel, so you can switch to an energy-saving standby mode at the push of a button. Want to print? Just press the button again to power back up, and you're ready to go.

One less noisy office distraction

You shouldn't have to struggle to hear yourself think while sitting at your own desk. That's why the Samsung CLP-320 is engineered to be whisper quiet, generating a noise level of just 45 dBA (Color), 47 dBA (Mono) while it's printing. That's less than the gentle hum of a running refrigerator. A desktop printer that does its work while letting you focus on yours? Cool.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and cheerful. 16 May 2011
I purchased this printer after I was no longer able to find cartridges for my ageing inkjet printer. It's vastly more convenient: I just ask for a printout, and out it comes. No need to clean the print head, no problem with dried ink blocking the print head if you don't use the printer for a month, ability to print hundreds of pages on a set of cartridges, faster printing, ink doesn't run if the printouts get wet, deeper paper tray. I've had no reliability issues in the few weeks I've been using the printer. And all for the cost of a couple of inkjet cartridges, or a mid-range inkjet printer for that matter. I'm not looking forward to the toner cartridge replacement costs but the cost per printed page will still be less in the long run.

The printer doesn't do duplex printing, and its colour quality, while good, can't quite match that of a high quality inkjet when producing glossy photos. But print quality is certainly competitive with vastly more expensive colour laser printers.

The printer integrates well with Linux and CUPS. Debian users should note that the driver installer places files named smfpd* in the /etc/rc*.d/ directories on your system, which interfere with the Debian update procedure. The files also launch a printer daemon that consumes vast amounts of CPU time. I fixed this by removing these files and rebooting, as the daemon only serves Samsung parallel port printers, and this is a USB printer.

So, in summary, not perfection incarnate, but excellent for the price.

By Clashcity Rocker VINE™ VOICE
Can't rate this highly enough, the print quality is excellent, the toners come supplied good for 700 pages (regular toners are 1000-page), it's quiet, fast to start up and works with Linux, Windows 7, Vista and XP (32bit and 64bit) and Macs.

If I had to gripe (and it's hard to at these prices), it would be:

small paper-feed capacity (130 sheets)
does not work with any of the wireless print servers I tried.

A big warning:
Description says it has Base-100 ethernet but it does not (you need the much more expensive CLP-320N for that, not the CLP-320 and memory is "only" 32MB not 256MB. )

We previously had the Samsung CLP-315 printer, which served us well. However, when the black toner and yellow toner started to run out, we found it cheaper to buy this unit than a set of toner cartridges for the old machine. We have not used the print screen button, but it works fine on a Vista laptop and a Windows 7 64-bit laptop, which is the most important thing.

Beware, the small footprint is somewhat compromised when you find out that, in order to load it with A4 paper, which is what most of us use, the tray must be pulled out, and never goes back in as far as it is when you buy it. By that I mean it slides out on rails and then stoppers engage and from then on the tray will always need to stick out 9cm from the front of the machine. Not a problem for us as the last machine was the same, but worth knowing if you are looking at the usual sales photos, which show the draw fully in (but unable to be loaded with A4 paper).

As with getting a new printer you are also replacing all those wearing out parts, waste toner bin, imaging unit etc., I do not really have a problem with the relatively high price of the toner replacement, as we will probably do the same again next time round.

Overall and excellent printer, improved on the last unit and well worth the money.
