Home and small office owners in the market for a powerful, yet affordable printer need look no further than the new ML-1430 laser printer from Samsung! The ML-1430 offers a speedy 15 page-per-minute output rate and an ample monthly duty cycle of 12,000 pages per month - the highest in its class. At $199, the ML-1430 is one of the most affordable and feature-rich printers in its class.
With 8MB of standard memory, the ML-1430 produces sharp text and graphics at an impressive real resolution of 600 dots-per-inch. Through SPL (Samsung Printer Language) emulation, the ML-1430 is able to print graphics at a faster rate than other similarly priced models.
Solid and compact, the ML-1430 supports a wide range of Linux Operating Systems including Red Hat, Caldera, Debian, Mandrake, Slackware, SuSE and Turbo Linux. It also supports Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP/NT4.0 and Macintosh OS 8.6 and above. The ML-1430 comes with built-in parallel and USB ports.
The ML-1430 features all of the cost-saving benefits standard to Samsung laser printers, including the company's unique Toner Save technology. The one-touch Toner Save Button reduces toner consumption by up to 40%, saving consumers and businesses money through fewer replacement cartridges. Ideal for generating draft documents, the toner save actually extends the life of the printers' 2,500-page toner cartridge to 3,500 pages when activated.
The ML-1430 also features Samsung's convenient N-up printing mode, which enables the user to display up to 16 pages of text on a single sheet. N-up printing is particularly useful for previewing the layout of lengthy documents and presentations without wasting vast amounts of paper and toner.
Equipped with a 150-sheet paper input bin and an alternate by-pass feed, the ML-1430 is capable of handling a wide variety of paper stocks and sizes including envelopes, labels, card stock or transparencies. User-friendly features include a Cancel/Reprint button that allows you cancel a print job or reprint the last printed page with the touch of a button.
The ML-1430 is backed by Samsung's one-year parts and labor warranty.
