 Rare combination of form and function December 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
For whatever reason, printer manufacturers have ignored the almost universal trend across technology companies and products of adding a sense of style to their merchandise. TVs, Ipods, computers, you name it, have all kept up with the consumer demand for style, but printers never did...until now. Quite simply, this a great printer. It takes up minimal desk space and has a sleek sense of style (black piano finish, blue lit digital controls, etc...not an orange "stop" button or gray plastic paper feeder to found!) It is simple to use, produces fast, high quality pages and has never once caused me any functional problems. It is hands down the best personal multi-function printer I have ever owned and would recommend it to anyone who cares about function AND form.

Samsung SCX-4500 Monochrome Laser Multifunction Printer
I love this printer! Everytime I use it, I look at it & smile. I am a writer & a teacher & have used a Samsung basic b&w laser printer for years. I bought it for [...] after a [...] and put a new cartridge in every six months. I had a separate Visioneer scanner and an Epson MF printer with copy & fax capability. All serviceable technology but so "blah & functional looking."
Last year, I replaced my old computer with a HP Pavillion Slimline Desktop with a Pocket Media Drive; recycled my scanner & Samsung & Epson Printer and purchased this Smasung SCX - 4500.( I knew what I wanted & am a patient, crafty shopper so I pounced when the price was right & bought it for [...].!) And I am thrilled!! They are both elegant & highly functionally. The Pocket Media drive is a joy and the printer is so QUIET...SO QUIET!! It has this soft little woosh sound when it is doing its thing.
If your desk is in a family area or bedroom nook, this is tecnology you can enjoy displaying. This is not a workhorse machine but there are plenty of those on the market. The small 100 sheet paper tray is a small trade off for the advantages.
I am a 65+ senior woman, who has owned computers since the early 1980's. I am not a notebook person but do appreciate all the mobility featues of small, lightweight, smart looking gadgets. This printer has a small footprint, is lightweight and great looking!
Note: I no longer use a fax as I scan & e-mail documents.
 Great printer/copier. Download latest drivers if you own a Mac. May 25, 2008

PROS:
-Text is crisp
-Printer/Scanner is super quiet
-Light, and relatively small foot print
-Eye candy. It's no eyesore like most MFPs.
CONS:
-No fax.
-No duplex printing.
-No wireless.
-No envelope printing support
-Only comes with a 1000 page "starter" toner cartridge. Replacement cartridges yield 2000 pages.
OTHER:
At $300, I would have never purchased this printer. $250 made it slightly more bearable. I knew of all aforementioned disadvantages/cons before buying, but still decided it was a worthwhile investment. I just listed them for the curious.
Wireless capability and maybe a duplex add-on would be nice, though, and probably expected in this price range.
MAC Users:
Download the latest drivers/applications from Samsung's website, if you want the "scan-to-file" button to work.
Impressive design May 17, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this model about two weeks ago and heavily using it since than. Shortly, I'm happy with it. Here are the details :
The Good :
-Sleak, stylish design for people who are tired of low material quality and same beige/gray looks
-Very quiet operation
The Bad :
-Price. It is $300 right now and its qualifications don't worth the tag. Printers in that price level have wireless and fax capability (but not the looks, well it's a trade off in this case)
-Limited paper storage
-Not really small. (still smaller than most, but it is not really a compact printer as I assumed).
As I noted, overall I'm happy with the printer as I paid for the looks. One other thing which bothered me is, it doesn't come with connection cable. After paying premium buck, I would expect to get the cable with the printer.
Very good printer and copier for home April 15, 2008
18 out of 18 found this review helpful
This printer is smaller than I thought. It is about the size of a small desktop PC. It is rather "cool" looking printer. If you are trying to make a fashion statement with your printer, then this printer does its job.
Its small size comes with one noticeable compromise: a small paper tray that can only hold 75-100 sheets. It is not built to be a large volume printer and even infrequent use may result in filling the paper tray more than one desires. It can, however, print at a fast speed and at a good quality (600 dpi) resolution. The copier function is easy to use (press the copy button) and works reasonably well, and is good for low volume copying. I had no problems copying a 20 page document and it processed each copy in less than 5 seconds. The copy quality was on par with standard office copy machines.
The refill tray is expensive (about $70) and only prints about 2000 pages. That comes to around 3.5 cents per page. That is somewhat high.
One thing of note, this printer does not have a fax capability. So it is not all-in-one laser printer.
I recommend this printer to those who need a reasonably good laser printer/copier in a small form factor. If you need to a high volume printing/copying machine which prints at a low print/cent ratio, then I would look elsewhere.
