excellent printer, but the toner runs out a little faster than my HP laserjet printer.  What's up with all the promise of efficiency?

Have had this printer for about a month. It does everything well, but the print quality is a bit inferior to my latest all-in-one, an HP 7130.  Still, this machine is very good and has excellenet paper feed.  Also, the scanning capablity is, I think, exceptional.  Nice machine, especially for the money:  $99 at Sam's Club in Virginia.

This toner works great and I never really have any problems. The only issue I've seen is that it does NOT yield 11,000 pages unless you're printing a single letter on each page. I just went through a cartridge and had the printer count every page done, and I got a little over 4,500. NOT 11,000. But, for the price, I'm not complaining too much.

I would definitely say that I love this printer so much! Together with the original hp ink and good quality paper, the print quality is superb.

Setting up was really easy. Just go to the site, download the app, and you're good to go!

I only deducted 1 star because printing is really slow and ink rans out quickly.

All in all, I like it and will definitely recommend this to everyone!

Great printer, excellent quality.  I did a bunch of research for this printer, I was replacing an older color laser and toner cost was becoming an issue.  Consumer reports has this one down as one of the most efficient printers in this category (home/small business).  I haven't confirmed it yet, but their tests said 2500 black pages and 1800 color pages for a toner cartridge.  So far it's been great, very nice quality.  I love the additional connectivity too.  It can be it's own wireless server, and I can print photos directly from my iPhone.  Very slick.

This is an absolutely awesome printer for the price. It takes some time to get it to print correctly, you have to play with the printer settings for a while to get them just right, but once you do the quality is great. My only issue with it is that two rods that i put on the bed seemed to be a big larger in diameter than the other rods which cause them to bind occasionally and throw off the print a millimeter or two. I could get new rods for cheep but im lazy haha.

I got the the OneUp V2, which was a huge improvement over V1. They fixed basically all the problems encountered by removing zipties from the assembly.

Other than that the first improvement that i would make to this printer is to add a fan and a duct, it really helps

I had a HP printer that served me well for 7 years.  When I finally gave it up, I replaced it with a Brother..  Two years later I bought this one.  The printing quality is superb and so far the toner usage has been as good as expected.  I will revisit this review after I have more experience with toner usage.  Warning:  It does weigh 53 pounds!!!

We've had a K80 for about a year now for a small office.  We use it to print everything from correspondance to brochures.  In general its been a great multifunction machine.
Print speed:
Has been excellent with one exception.  All the HP printers print vertical lines along a page extremely slowly.  We print correspondance with a template containing a vertical line that runs the length of the page.  Letters were taking several minutes to print because of it.  Graphics speed is generally excellent, much faster than our HP 1215 even though they are rated at the same speed.
Print quality:
Excellent.  Photos print beautifully (something we didn't really expect on a multifunction printer) and our brochures print with clear vivid color.
Copying:
Black and white copying is very quick and produces excellent results with text.  Results with black and white graphics are not as good, shaded boxes are sometimes grainy or not shaded at all.  We did return one machine because color copies all contained a light blue band, the replacement machine has had the same problem.  We don't do enough color copies to worry about it.
By the way, the return was handled routinely with no hassles from HP's end.
Scanning:
We were not as disappointed as Amazon's reviewer with the OCR capability.  I've scanned and extracted text from a number of magazine articles.  Although the OCR is far from perfect, it was adequate to meet our purpose.  Photo scanning is easy.
We were disappointed with the late support for the XP operating system and that we had to pay to have new drivers shipped on CD rather than have them downloaded.  The HP drivers still don't support all printer functions.
The HP director software worked beautifully under Windows 98.
This particular model is starting one of HP's older ones now and may soon go out of production.  The printer has generally served our purposes well.  If we had to do it again, we might go for a flatbed model.

I purchased this printer in May 2014. The first thing I did was go into the printer settings and configure the printer for toner save mode and to continue on the "replace toner" message, via the web interface for the device (I use it wirelessly). I'm still on my starter cartridge and have printed out 968 pages as of today. The toner cartridge says it is low (the replace toner light has been on for quite a while) but it still prints very well and is still going strong. I have a replacement cartridge waiting for when it runs completely out.

This printer works well and prints fast. I am very content with it, and consider it to be the best printer I've ever owned. I have to turn the power off when I'm not using it however, because you can apparently press the buttons on the top in a certain order and mess up the wireless configuration - a feat that my cats and my grandson can achieve with alarming ease. While it is easy to reset the wireless on the printer (press a button by inserting a paperclip while telling my router to accept the first printer that tries to connect), it is annoying because I never discover it has been reset until we actually need to print something so I just manually switch it off when not in use to avoid the issue.

I will update this review when I replace the toner cartridge. I had planned to hold off on my review until after I replaced the cartridge the first time but it has been MONTHS now and the starter cartridge is still going strong. For the record, this printer became my main printer, replacing an inkjet printer that was costing me a fortune even when I used remanufactured cartridges. We still have the inkjet for the occasional color printout (and for scanning) but this is now our go-to printer and even prints out black and white images beautifully.

UPDATE 1/5/15: I still haven't had to replace the toner cartridge. I've printed out 1,063 pages thus far on the starter cartridge. Occasionally the printouts have lighter areas but the print is still readable and it really isn't that noticeable except on images. I'm rather surprised. The printer still works very well and runs quiet.

For the record, I use this printer on a Mac and with our iPads and my daughters iPod Touch. For the iOS devices we use the Brother iPrint and Scan App that is available for these devices.

UPDATE 2/12/15: 1,257 pages printed and the maintenance page is saying that I need to replace the toner. The last printout I did got a bit too light so I changed the toner cartridge. I wonder how many pages I will get out of this high-capacity cartridge, since I got so many pages from the starter one?

I have had this printer for over 2 years without any problems. The print speed is slower than the current models, but fine for individual or home office use. The print quality is terrific, and photo quality is above-average for a laser printer. In fact, the photo quality is pretty good for any printer. In addition, the toner cost is not high if you buy non-Dell toner. I have used non-Dell toner for about 6 months now and have noticed no difference in print quality or printer reliability. Overall, this is a great product.

Excellent Printer, but, a little "hard" to print envelopes and/or legal size documents... Epson may have solved this problem with their WF-3520...

The printer prints great.  The only nag I have is that the 4x6 feeder doesn't load properly on my machine about half the time.  It got to the point where I just use the standard loader all the time, even for small paper.

The print quality is excellent with crisp edges and the gray-scale graphics are quite acceptable in my opinion.  The printer seems to print at the rated 29 pages per minute.  It is very quiet with almost no warm-up time needed before the first page prints.  The automatic duplexer is a wonderful feature and I won't own another printer without it.  I haven't experienced any paper jams or noticed any significant paper curling - there is some, but I have come to expect some minor curling from a small printer like this one.

I have this set up on WiFi and the initial set up requires the use of a USB cable and the Samsung setup software.  It was a simple matter of following the on-screen instructions and once set up I haven't had to use a USB cable since.  There is no display on the printer itself, just a couple of buttons and led lights.  This doesn't bother me, since I can check the printer status using the web interface.  As a qualifier, I work in the IT field and am comfortable performing advanced network configurations and using web interfaces with remote devices.  That being said, the initial setup is pretty straightforward using the Samsung software and shouldn't provide any difficulty at all.

With two college students and two children that are home schooled results in a lot of printing - printing textbooks, etc.  We just replaced the starter toner cartridge that is rated at 1200 pages.  We got an actual 1189 pages before it was fading enough to need changing.  For the last 250-300 pages the printer was reporting 0% toner, but it kept on spitting out pages that had no signs of fading (until the last dozen or so).

Those two features alone make this printer worth it.  Getting about the number of pages the cartridge is rated at and being able to keep printing when the printer "thinks" it's out of toner.  I replaced it with a high-yield cartridge, so if we get close to the 3000 page rating I will continue to be extremely happy with this printer.

Great. Just ran out of toner for by Dell 1160B black & white laser printer, so I checked online. For under $20 it's a steal-- definitely beats going to Staples and paying a lot more. The only problem: apparently my printer can't read the current toner levels in this third-party toner, so I have no idea how much ink I have left. Because of this, I don't know if this toner will last quite as long as the brand name Dell toner. We'll see.

We've owned this printer for about 2.5 months and printed 890 pages to date and I have to say this is a great printer!

Pros:

- It was relatively inexpensive up front

- Toner cartridges promise to be the same (7000 page cartridge for about $75)

- Duplexer equipped to save paper and time

- Network capable (which allows us to print from anywhere in the house)

- Fast output

- Good software that allows several printing options

- Small footprint design

- Memory expandable

- Bulk paper tray expandable

Cons:

The printer is a little noisy but that doesn't bother us, it is not that much louder than an inkjet at full bore.  The hardest part was getting my firewalls to accept the new device, but that is not the printers fault.

I bought this for my wife who is taking classes that require a horrendous amount of printing.  After going through several ink cartridges, I decided to take the plunge, and thank goodness, we love this printer!

Purchased this printer in Aug so I have been an owner for about 7 months. It has been an excellent printer. It was a replacement to my HP LaserJet Series II which was a horse but ready for the glue factory.  We have put 1579 pages on the "Starter" cartridge which specifies only 1000 pages, but we generally print with Toner Saver.  I have now just installed a knock-off cartridge from SuperMedia and it was a breeze to install and we are back in business.  As it is a 360 equiv cartridge which specifies 2600 pages I hope to get over 3000.  I have this configured over wireless which was initially 802.11b (11MB) and then I got a new router that was 802.11G/N so I had to reconfig. I did not use the Brother automatic software as I am too suspicious, I was able to configure over the web (hard wired at first). The user interface is not trivial but workable for a knowledgeable person. We print to this printer from 4 different computers attached both phisically to the network and wirelessly with Only a power cord runing to the printer. I have used the printer successfully with a LinkSys Access Point and now a NetGear Wireless Router. The printer only supports 802.11b/g so it is connected at 54MB now using WPA-PSK [TKIP].

This printer in my opinion is a no-brainer to get. <$150 and 1500 pages and $30 more for another 3000 pages. It shows only 2 paper jams on its log web page, both were caused by user errors in 1579 pages.  It is an Excellent Printer for the money.

I have a little over 7000 prints on this unit and it is going strong. Have needed to replace all toners after they ran out from use.  Cost per page at full color is decent. Scan to features are awesome. Sheet feed scanning often slightly misaligns the page.  Nice features to define "save as" which does include PDF and thankfully multipage scans are saved as one PDF with multiple pages which is something HP software often screws up!

My only complaints:
Vista support is bad. Scan to often does not work as the printer software fails to recognize the computer on the network to scan to.  After ugrading to Win7 this problem went away.  However, some of my clients, had Vista which required upgrading or scan to was simply not going to work properly.
Toner levels are not available when you look at the printer properties.  This is either found while printing or by downloading their admin utility which will then report toner levels. Not having this available on the printer properties or at least on the printers internal website is just not acceptable.

However, that said, it is still one of my top recommendations to my clients wanting to fit the needs of scanning and color laser printing.  I have not really bothered with the faxing as all fax machines are evil on many different levels.

On high volume print jobs (with small paper) this unit will over heat but it has built in logic to stop, tell you it is cooling down, and then print at a much slower pace.  The thermal drum disipates a lot of its heat onto the paper durring print so when I printed 200 5 by 7 postcards it overheated quickly as there was not much paper to transfer heat to.
Printing standard or legal paper sizes printed all 200 at great speed never once stopping from heat.  I had thoughts of hooking up my shopvac hose to the thermal exhaust area to help it along, when it was overheating on the small paper prints, but decided it may jam the paper from that much wind sucking through it :).
