Reviews of the Samsung CLP-300
-
CNET Review
The Good: Compact; decently fast black text prints; toner canisters are easy to swap out.
The Bad: Slow at all but black text prints; print quality could use a lot of improvement.
The Bottom Line: The tiny Samsung CLP-300 color laser printer is a good bargain for those with very basic print needs. If you need more from your printer, you'll have to spend a little more money.
