If you're looking to purchase a Samsung ML2010Rprinter, you may be slightly sceptical when you look at the price. These printers can be picked up for less than £50.00, but don't let the price put you off.
*** Installing ***
As with all of my Samsung devices, this was extremely easy to install. One thing to note is that a USB cable is not included in the box, so make sure you purchase one.
A small installation guide is included in the box, but it's as easy as putting the disc into your computer and following the instructions on-screen. The disc contains drivers for all Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating systems, so it's compatible with virtually every computer.
Once installed, a hidden utility will appear in your notification area to alert you to errors, such as paper jams. This simply notifies you when necessary, but does not irritate you with pointless information,
*** Printing ***
Now that the printer's set up, you should be able to see the results. Within seconds of pressing "Print", the printer kicks into action and spews out page-after-page at an incredible speed!
Being used to a cheap inkjet printer, I was amazed at the speed this could print at, but even more amazed by the quality. Text appears extremely text and even photographs aren't bad considering the printer is not made to do such things.
The printer also has a separate manual-feed tray, which is automatically chosen when it detects media in it. This has proven to be extremely useful for double-sided prints and envelopes. Whatever media you choose, be it paper, card or envelopes, the printer will handle it with ease.
The one thing you'll probably notice is the noise it makes when printing. This isn't an issue for me really, but I can imagine it could irritate some people, so it may be best to place it some distance from your computer.
*** Conclusion ***
Wow! For this sort of money, you simply cannot beat it if you are needing to print a lot of text documents. It ticks all of the boxes with its price, speed and quality; simply better than any inkjet printer I have ever used.
