Samsung SF 5100 Toner Cartridge – A Helpful Device Your Office Can Depend On

Appearance- The Samsung SF 5100 black and white, laser, fax printer is real grafter while being very compact in terms of size. Considering it’s a three-in- one machine it measures 9x12x13 inches and weighs an extraordinary light 6 kilograms. Unbelievable? Believe it! What’s more unbelievable is the quality of prints as well as the crazy-cheap price of US$400.00 for the printer fax. You just cannot go wrong with this investment. Ideal for both office and home use.

Media Handling- The machine has an 150 sheets input and 100 sheets output tray capacity. Media is fed at a 20 sheet capacity. The machine is a little fussy when it comes to paper size and type compatibility and will only accept A4, Letter and Legal sizes and in terms of paper types only plain paper.

Print quality- The machine comes standard with Samsung’s edge enhancement technology, this is most probably why the image quality is so absolutely superior. Copies are produced at 300x 300 resolutions at an engine speed of 6 pages per minute and faxes sent with incredible speed of 6 seconds per page. The printer has document enlargement capacity of up to 130% and reduction of up to 50%.

Control Panel- The general control panel is very user friendly with 7 language LCD display. However fax controls self are a little more complicated due to the variety of dialling options. Fax number can be keyed in using the numbers keypad and by pressing start/enter button or if you are dialling a previously stored or dialled number you can just press the one touch dial key. Speed dialling options are also available by merely adding the number to speed dialling list.

Pro’s- When comparing pro’s to con’s the machine is an absolute winner, as very few flaws can be identified. Copies are produced at a mere 6 second as a result of the devices’ document scanning system. Faxes are also sent chop-chop. Reliability reigns supreme with this machine with added benefits such as auto redial, priority transmission and transmission reporting.

Con’s- The machines’ paper trays are a bit of a problem. The input tray is very short and narrow and the output tray’s design flaw impacts the way paper exists. Sent and received pages are not separated and are all sent to a paper tray at the bottom of the device. Another paper tray is present at the top of the machine. Luckily this tray causes no to few problems. Unconventional paper sizes or types can sometimes cause paper flow problems.

Expense- This fax printer is easily the greatest cost saver on the market. The purchase of the printer self is already a great investment when considering it’s price and the toner saving when compared to inkjet machines. Once the machine is installed the real saving will start, with super comparative cost when comparing inkjet and thermal transfer to it’s laser counterpart. Green Peace members will be very happy about the machines’ power and toner saving features. These features are not only to the advantage of the environment but also your pocket. Consumers are in the clouds with Samsungs toner saving feature as this consumable can often cost you an arm and a leg.

Toner – Samsung SF 5100 Printer Toner will included with your printer fax purchase. The cartridges have print capacity’s of 2500 pages at 5% coverage and 3000 pages at lower coverage. Printer Cartridge can be a little expensive at between US$62.00 – US$110. However replacement is few and far between, with toner lasting up to 8 months depending on your print quantity and quality.
