    Strengths: AWESOME!!! color quality for such a small laser printer. Makes production of my marketing material more affordable to be able to print such high quality. As most of you know, most laser printers start at roughly $399 and go up. From my experience and color laser printers you're average cost for tone is usually about $100 bucks per/tone cartridge. Now that Samsung came out with this affordable printer, I recommend this printer to anyone running a small business. This is the most affordable color printer affordable on the market today.

    Weaknesses: I have cons on this printer at this point

    Overall Evaluation: Affordable, Awesome print quality, I definitely recommend it.
