Summary: I love this printer. Nary a problem. Had for 9 months now and still running on original toner cartridges. Selected Samsung because I had their B/W laser and never had a problem. Picked it because it was the smallest and most energy efficient. Reasonably priced toner cartridges available at Cartridge World.

Summary: The CLP-300 is very impressive as a color laser printer. However during all my initial tests, the text and images did not have the razor sharp edges we have come to expect from laser printing. I showed to a friend who works on printers for a living and he says the printer is laying too much toner on the paper which results in the \"fuzzy edges.\"

On the plus side, if you want the least expensive color laser that can print checks with MICR toner (magnetically readable at banks & retail stores) this printer can do it if you add a MICR toner cartridge from checksnet website.

Summary: small and easy hardware setup out of the box, extremely easy.

I have 3 pc's connected to the internet using a router and a switch, no file/print sharing installed on all xp pro pc's. Original software installation would not work, I used add printer and pointed to drivers on cd, while designating a http://192.168.0.6 local ip in the port specifications on all pc's and it works on all pc's.

Strangely sometimes it doesn't when sending a large color image to print.

So for basic homework and such it's fine, hopefully drivers/install will get better with time.
