Samsung placed one model of their monochome printer in several AEAs
and they all worked fine with the exception of one sent to Jerry
Cochrane. Samsung picked that one up and sent a replacement out right
away and it worked fine too.
I asked for an all-in-one printer to review, fax, scan-to-fax, scan-to-
email color printer. We got the CLX-6210FX. We had some issues with
color and with a mac driver but that has been taken care of. In the
process they actually sent us a second unit to replace the first one
with the problems. By the time it arrived we had figured out the
solution to our problems but have kept the other unit as a test unit
too. We use both of them to print, and to scan-to-email. It is really
fast and prints black fine but for color, if we are printing something
out to share we always use our old Okidata C5500. Overall the Samsung
is a lot faster printing than the Okidata. We have also found out that
when a color runs out, the printer continues printing. We now have
been running one of the printers with no magenta toner left and black
indicates that it is gone but continues to print black. Some printers
won't continue printing when the machine says there is no toner left.
I don't know if all models have this capability or not.
We have ordered and use the extended use cartridges for the Samsung.
I have just had a customer order a monochrome all-in-one and have not
gotten any feedback.
If you are only needing black print then I would not be afraid of the
Samsung printers. Samsung has taken care of any problems that we have
had and all of them, as far as I know, were experienced by me or
Jerry. Go figure that out.
Since I don't know your price range I don't know what models I should
be focusing on. Let me know if I can help.

Karl,
What are your requirements or what were you thinking that you
wanted to purchase.
We have all the HP and all Samsung printers available with pricing
at a discount. We also list several Okidata printers.
All the printers we offer are network capable. Let me know what you
want and if we don't have pricing I can get it.
