The Samsung ML 1510 monochrome printer boasts with excellent overall print quality. Text is clean and crisp and easily legible at even the smallest of character sizing. In terms of larger character printing, outlines are smooth and solid. Shading and contrasting is accurately reproduced, with only slight banding on PDF, mixed content and photo prints. Greyscale images and diagrams have a greater tendency to suffer from banding. However you should really look closely to see these slight flaws. Engine speed reaches up to 14 pages per minute for text, 14 page per minute mixed content and photo printing. Warming-up time of 30-60 seconds is required before first page production.

All well-known media types and sizes are compatible with the printer including Plain, transparencies, labels, envelopes and cards as well as Letter, Legal, Folio, Exec, Monarch, C5, DL, A4, A5, B5 and 3×5″. The printer boasts with a great 250 sheet paper input and 50 sheet output tray capacity. A folding paper exit is located at the back of the machine for handling inflexible paper types.

The printer controls are conveniently limited to only one button for power supply and 2 LED screens indicating different print status, all the other functions are controlled via software installed on the users computer.

Getting started is so simple. Just pop the disc into your pc drive and install the software. Unfortunately, the plug and play function was omitted by the manufacturers.

Linux, Apple Mac and Windows operating systems are all compatible with the printer, making it appealing to a broad audience. Especially Linux and Mac users will be chuffed as these systems often encounter compatibility problems.

An USB connection is the only connectivity option available on the printer, so if your operator is a little outdated you better pack it away. Cables are not included so remember to order yours well in advance.

A 12 month guarantee is included with your printer purchase. However you should keep in mind that coverage is very limited on parts and labour.
