Toner Cartridges for the Samsung ML-1650

Small workgroups with low to medium needs might stand to benefit from the Samsung ML-1650, which offers sharp monochrome laser printing for a fair price. The ML-1650 is able to print at maximum speeds of 17 pages per minute, which is a significantly slower output when compared to the higher-end models in its class that can reach up to 30 pages per minute. Speeds aren't the only issue with this machine, with additional setbacks like minimal connectivity and limited control tools. However, the printer does redeem itself by using very affordable and long-lasting Samsung ML-1650 printer toner, as well as offering a handful of upgradable features.

The ML-1650 is targeted toward moderately busy workgroups due to its ability to handle a maximum monthly duty cycle of 40,000 pages. The device even has room to expand, allowing users to increase its standard memory of 16 MB to a maximum of 144 MB. If needed, users also have the option to purchase additional paper trays to increase the built-in capacity of 650 pages to a maximum of 1,200 pages. These additions, unfortunately, will make its already box-like build of 14x16x11 inches seem more bulky.

One need only look at the ML-1650 to see it is a somewhat outdated machine. The device is missing many features that usually comprise a front panel, such as an LCD for updates on jobs and buttons to navigate through menus and select print functions. The front of the machine also lacks a USB slot, which would allow users to walk up to the device and print documents from their flash drives. Users will find a USB port on the back of the printer, which will allow them to connect it to their computer through a cable.

Capable of printing documents with a maximum resolution of 1200 dpi using its black Samsung ML-1650 toner cartridge, this machine's monochrome output should be satisfactory for internal projects. Since each black Samsung ML-1650 toner cartridge yields up to 8,000 pages, users won't need to replace them frequently. The option to purchase remanufactured toners over OEM supplies is an easy way for users to reduce running costs.

There are apparent pros and cons to the ML-1650, from its optional paper trays and crisp output to its limited connectivity. Ultimately, this single-function monochrome printer isn't quicker or more advanced than the top picks in its class, but it is reliable and inexpensive to use.
