Review: Excellent for personal use! - I got Samsung Xpress C460W and was trilled on how nicely it is put together. I decided to retire my perfectly fine inkjet All-in-One HP printer, because I'm the one on many people out there who are printing like ... "once a month" or even less sometime. And as you can imagine, ink is drying out a little. When you turning inkjet printer on, it start cleaning heads, sucking out a LOT's of ink in the process. Repeat this couple times and half of your cartridge is gone! I started not liking this, especially because complete set of genuine HP 564 cartridges is about 60 bucks. And I'm replacing them at least twice a year. So, when prices for laser all-in-ones went down, it is time to upgrade! Laser printers have huge advantage before inkjet's. Ink has tendency to dry-out, but laser toner is ... already dry(naturally)! Awesome, right?! Plus, printouts are not smudging, like from inkjets. Couple practical things you should know if you buy this printer. UNPACKING - follow Quick Guide to remove all tape. - pull out Paper Tray, which for shipping is all the way into the printer body. It is not immediately obvious from Quick Setup Guide picture, but in working position, tray is NOT going all the way in the printer! I know, you will be tempted to insert it back all the way, as it was before... DO NOT DO THAT! I've myself, after loading it with paper tried that couple times, before realizing that it is NOT going to go all the way in! For normal operation it should stick out for about 4 inches. - after removing all tape and packaging, and turning ON printer, you will hear wheel spinning and printer initializing, the small thin cardboard strip will be spitted out by printer from the slot where print will be coming out. This is part of packaging. Just throw it away. - Remove each of the toner cartridges and as says User Guide - to distribute toner more evenly - shake it up/down left/right a little, then put it back. Please note - there is NO need to remove any tapes, of other packaging from toners! They are completely ready to print. And be careful NOT to TOUCH those narrow cylinders powdered in colored toner! INSTALLING DRIVER and SOFTWARE - (Win7) when inserting provided disk, I installed all offered software. It doesn't seemed to much. HP is offering more "stuff". - I've opted for Wireless printer setup only. I installed many software packages before, but this time I was truly amazed that ALL Wireless setup and configuration was done totally transparently for user by installer and when I clicked "Print Test Page" option - this concluded 100% installation process!!!! I did not have to do manually ANYTHING! Now, this is one perfect example of how all installations for devices should be handled! Excellent job, Samsung. - really important point is that this device was displayed on the networks as SECURED, locked one. HP I have is NOT secure and Win 7 on the Networks popup displaying little icon next to it, informing that this might be potential threat. So, this little, but important detail also is done correctly by Samsung. - at first, I was a bit disappointed to see that tiny and "outdated" grayscale display on printer front console, but after a while, I have realized that I will not be looking at or using it that often, so it is OK. - Mobile stuff is great too. I went to AppStore and installed Samsung app (search for "samsung printer"), there is only one. But is covers probably all printers made by Samsung. This model is listed there too. After install, just touched Settings line and selected "AUTO" (connect) to add printer. That's all. Set this up for my iPhone and iPad in 5 min. - MAC OS software is not included with the supplied disk, so for my MacBook I have downloaded and installed Driver only, printer works great! PRINTING - I have printed on really generic and cheap paper I have, and printout is a ... laser printer quality! Very good. - cartridges are suspiciously "slim", but with my infrequent printing needs I think, that Cartridges will easily last for entire year. Especially, if set to lower than Default print quality setting. - I have not tried NFC printing, when my son visit me, we will try in with his Nexus fone. - This printer, like all laser printers has pretty strong heating device, so it has strong magnetic field. Wireless and NFC devices also emitting some waves, so it is better to store it (couple feet) away from computer and other sensitive electronics. CONCLUSION: - Some reviewers are reporting (horrible) issues with printer, which look a lot like manufacturing defects. Mine seems to be OK and has no issues whatsoever. During software install, it looked online for updated version of software and did not found any, so I assume that provided disk has newest drivers and software. - Even this is not said explicitly, judging by spec's, this is more like personal printer/scanner/copier. But, for some odd reason, some people are buying this printer for office use... and then whining about lack of paper feed, duplex printing, handling custom papers and envelopes. This is ridiculous! It does not have these features - just look at the pic of it, and read specs! If you need printer like this for office use, get Samsung SL-C1860FW/XAA, or HP LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw - they have larger capacity cartridges and (most) features you are looking for. So, if you are normal and reasonable individual, in need of a decent laser all-in-one, do not let those 'tarded reviews to discourage you. Give this one a try, and you may like it. ... I do. :]
Review: Great printer for the price, small footprint, works with Linux, FreeBSD, and OpenBSD - We got this printer for light home use, choosing it because it works with Linux and Mac. We are quite happy with the quality, as well as the relatively small size. Three things that weren't mentioned in the quick start guides that are useful to know. 1.) As mentioned in other reviews, once you put paper in the tray, it doesn't go back in flush with the machine but protrudes out 2-3 inches. Had I not read other reviews mentioning this, I would have thought the machine was broken. 2.) The eco mode is nice, but if you do copies while in eco mode, the copy comes out half size. You are also, if making a copy in eco mode, given the option to make a second pass, and the copy won't continue till you hit OK. (The default is no--a second pass makes a second copy of the image on the paper, so you'll have two half size images.) 3.) If configuring networking through the web interface, the default username is admin and the default password is sec00000 (5 zeros.). I set up networking through Linux, first connecting it to a wired network, then using arp-scan to get the address. After that I had to google for the default admin/sec00000 username password, but once I had that, I used the web interface to set up wireless, giving it a static IP. I downloaded the Linux and Mac drivers from Samsung's site. Once this was done, both Linux and Mac were easily able to use it as printer and scanner. (I think Mac software may be on the CD, but as the Mac I was using didn't have a CD drive, I didn't check). The printer also works with FreeBSD and OpenBSD. For the printing, I copied over the ppd from the Linux box and used CUPS to set it up. Scanning in both BSDs required me adding a line to the xerox.conf in /usr/local/etc/sane.d/xerox_mfp.conf. Under the line for Samsung C460 printers, add tcp . So far (only a day), we have found the print quality to be quite good. We don't give it heavy use--if we print more than 250 pages a year, that's a lot, and it seems as if it will be quite adequate for our needs. After reading other reviews, I was pleasantly surprised when I printed a photo--while probably not professional quality, it was quite good. For a home multifunction color laser printer under $300, we're finding this to be excellent. The price per page is probably not great--the cartridges do fewer pages than say, Brother, but our printing is very low volume. As HP just bought Samsung's printer division, cartridges will probably go up in price, but hopefully, when we do need to replace them, generic replacements will work. I've seen some generic cartridge sets with great desertcart reviews.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between 460w and 460fw**
A: I own both, so I can answer this question.  The 460w has copy, scan and print capabilities.  The 460fw has copy, scan, print and fax capabilities.  In addition, the 460fw has a very handy multiple document feeder on the lid, which the 460w does not have.

**Q: Auto double sided printing?**
A: No, the printer doesn't do double sided printing.

**Q: Does it do OCR?**
A: OCR is an option at installation time and in the menu it's called Convert to Text.

**Q: Is it Mac compatible.**
A: I have not had to use it with a Mac. But from what I've read it should be compatible

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No more inkjet printers for me anymore!
*by D***S on November 15, 2014*

I've always wanted a laser printer but felt they were priced way beyond my budget. Then I found this Samsung Xpress multifunction color laser printer. The price here on Amazon fit my budget, and I have had great experience with other Samsung products, so I went ahead and got this printer. I'm so glad I did. First, the size: it actually has a smaller footprint than my Canon inkjet printer. It's just taller. I love the square shape! The toner is very easy to install or remove. Just open the front cover and pull the cartridge out to remove. And the new one slips in very nicely. To the left of the cartridges is a handy permanent color guide, so you always know which color to put where.. There's a set of photo instructions on the inside of the front cover, so you never have to go to your user manual to see how to install cartridges or deal with a paper jam. I love how the paper output is conveniently just below the control panel. There's a tiny pull-out tray that comes out just 2 inches beyond the machine body, so there's no danger of your paper falling on the floor. Some people complain about the warm-up time. I found that the warm-up time is no longer than an inkjet printer. A nice feature about the printing status window is that while you're printing it shows the amount of toner remaining. I just finished printing 26 color text pages. At the start of the print job, I had 98% of my black toner and 100% of the color toners. While printing these 26 pages, I loved that I could actually see how much toner these pages used. This live 'toner countdown' can be very handy for someone wanting to know just how much toner any specific print project will use. IMPORTANT: Regarding the paper tray, when I first set up the printer, I pulled out the paper tray to fill it, and when I reinserted it in the printer, it didn't go in all the way. I thought that something was wrong with the tray - or the printer body. After fussing with it for a long time and searching for help on the internet, I discovered that this is normal. When you pull the paper tray out, it expands. And when you reinsert it in the machine the front edge will no longer be flush with the machine body. There is a button in the center of the tray floor that you can push to compress the tray so that it will again be flush with the body. So, when considering purchasing this machine, if space is a factor, remember that this tray is designed to be jutting out about 3 1/2 inches from the machine body. The user manual is not clear on this. The print quality is outstanding! I had thought that my Canon printers had done a great job on clear print quality until I compared the inkjet printed sheets to the ones this Samsung Laser printer put out. The difference is brilliant! I cannot imagine going back to inkjet ever again! Some professional reviewers had said that photos printed on laser printers is 'muddy'. I did not find that to be the case. This Samsung printer put out great color photos! Overall, I'm thrilled with this printer. The only - very minor - feature that I wish this printer had that my inkjets have is the control panel display is not backlit. Other than that, this is an excellent printer sold at a fabulous price for what you get.
