Samsung CLX-3160FN
$589.00
Released January, 2007
The Pros:Very quiet, can barely hear it working. Easy setup out of the box, they've kept it simple. Drivers set up easily and configure for network printing right away.
The Cons:Colour picture printing, text not as sharp as it should be. LCD doesn't have a backlight, impossible to read if the room isn't well lit. Configuring the direct-to-email scanning feature is extremely complex and just not worth the hassle.
Samsung CLX-3160FN multifunction colour printer is the mid line model within the CLX line-up. There are a few additional features which separates this model from the more basic multifunction printers.

#samsung_clx_3160fn Good value for money printer/scanner/fax. I use it in a small home office & it works well for me although it doesn't print colour photos as well as my previous HP machine (the model number escapes me sorry)
