Hi, I am considering the following 3 models and would like to hear your professional opinion.

- Brother DCP-7060D
- Brother DCP-7055
- Fuji Xerox DocuPrint M205b

My usage will be printing and scanning, duplex good to have but non-essential. Will duplex printing shorten the life of the printer/drum?

Am thinking to connect to home network through print server. Main concern will be the running cost as being haunted by the high maintenance of previous inkjet. Don't mind third party toner if it doesn't damage the printer and works well and economically.

Thanks in advance for feedback. :)

Really appreciate for the comprehensive reply, simply awesome ! :s13:

After some proper calculation, I found that if factor in the print server cost and also the hassle of carry-in warranty for the xerox M205b when drum is end-of-life; I might as well go for the Xerox M205f which is network ready and also on-site warranty for 4 years.

Any other better recommendation from other brand than this Xerox model?

Thanks again for the feedback :)

I guess you have pretty much figured out what you need. Just go for it! M205f is the best model in its class.:s12::s12:

I need help. Any experts here who can tell me which printer to choose.

1) mono printing laser
2) copy
3) duplex printing if possible.
4) i dun need scan
5) wireless is a bonus if wireless will spoil easily then wire also can.
6) fuji xerox or brother i read will be better compared to the rest.

As little headache as possible. Can last me 3 yrs i happy liao. If got good customer service it will be.a.dream.

I wanna get rid of my 2 caveman laser printers.

Get Brother DCP-7060d $188 got 3 years on-site warranty and duplex printing.

But if you want a better printout and dont need duplex printing, can go for Fuji Xerox M205b. $189(member price)

Both no wireless so veri cheap.

Dont think fuji got free delivery if buy at challenger means cash and carry

Hi theToners or any other bros/sis,

Can you recommend me a colour laser printer with the following requirements:

No need wireless / fax / scan / copy.
No need duplex.
Must have ethernet connectivity for small office use.
Must be able to print envelopes (C5 / C6).
Light to medium printing usage (mainly for printing vouchers slips & envelopes)
Good reliability, warranty & after sales customer service.
Budget $450 or less.

Actually I'm looking at Samsung's CLP-415N but not sure if its a good choice or not.

Inkjet also can if it fits the above requirements with large price difference from CLP-415N.

Thanks in advance.

Its 160 gsm. Thanks.

Beside samsung, I would recommend Fuji Xerox CP205w. In fact, CP205w is a much sought after model compared to the samsung one.

CP205w $429 with free $80 ntuc vouchers

toners
2k page yield black $95
1.4k page yield each cmy each $95

Better print out compare to samsung

Hi theToners or any other bros/sis,

Any recommendation for 1 unit of black&white laser printer and 1 unit of color laser printer for office use?

Both will be desktop printers and the printout is alot for black&white printers. Everyday around 240 sheets of workload for black and white printers. Speed is also good and user friendly.


Preferable HP or other reliable models.

Thanks for the input! =D

Samsung CLP-310 print ghosting problem

Hi,

Has anyone encountered this problem of current image is printed out together with a lighter copy of the previous image on the same page.
Printer not heavily used and less than 1.5 years.
I tried cleaning but does not help.
Do you think the imaging unit is the faulty?
Is it better to replace with a new printer than buying an imaging unit?

Congrats:s13: Dont worry bro this is a common problem with Samsuck printer. It is the imaging drum unit problem. Dont bother changing it as it is around $200+ time to go shopping for a new printer already.
