So I purchased the Samsung Printer from another seller at $299.00, the price alone is worth 2 stars. Just a little about my purchase decisions....I've owned 20 printers since 1994; the first Canon color inkjet, BJC-600, and then the Epson Stylus, and now 20models later, the Samsung Color Laser CLX-3175 ... I never really thought I would buy a Samsung for a printer, usually I buy Epson or HP. Epson is better with inkjet and HP I feel is the King with laser technology. So...Why a Samsung....For 2 years I've been searching for a color all in one, it had to be laser, I was sick of the drying inks, I did not print much in full color but when I did, the tanks were empty or clogged. Until I saw the Samsung I decided on either the HP all in one, like the Color LaserJet CM1312mfp or the Color LaserJet 2820mfp. The size of those...Read more 40 of 43 people found the following review helpful: This review is from: Samsung CLX-3175FN Color Laser Multi-function Printer (Office Product) I purchased a 3175FN just about a year ago. The first one arrived DOA and Samsung service said to return to vendor. Vendor replaced immediately.
STRIKE 1 Second printer arrived OK, but was a b***h to get connected to my Mac. Finally got networked through my Airport router without any useful help from Samsung service. STRIKE 2 Printer worked very well for about 6 months (no complaints at all) and then died. Samsung service "diagnosed" the problem as being a bad motherboard Said they would set up in home service per warranty. Turns out that the closest warranty location is over 60 miles from me and it is outside their required service area. After a half dozen calls to Samsung service they finally OK the repair. STRIKE 3 I called the repair provider and they tell me that parts have to ordered from Samsung. You would think that a service center would carry parts. After about a week a part arrives at...Read more 67 of 76 people found the following review helpful: By Will "Will" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Samsung CLX-3175FN Color Laser Multi-function Printer (Office Product) I purchased this item from another retailer at $299.99, the price is great for a color laser multi function printer with a very different and unique design.
The size of this machine is amazingly small and the design, as I have previously mentioned is fantastic, very appealing and the quality of its construction is very solid. What I do not like about this multifunction is the following: 1. It lacks wireless connectivity. 2. It lacks bluetooth connectivity. 3. It lacks an independent tray for envelopes. 4. It lacks auto duplex printing and scanning. 5. It lacks a better scanner, scanner drivers and software. The most annoying feature, is the lack of an independent envelope feeder or tray, because you literally have to remove the entire stack of paper, in order to be able to adjust the tray to be able to insert an envelope. This is extremely frustrating for me, because for every letter that I print,...Read more |
