 Stealth Bomber of B&W laser printersFeb 05, 2008
By Glenn M. Welt
"Glenn Welt"
If you're tired of beige or gray cheap-looking plastic printers, you'll love this shiny new offering from Samsung.
Very low profile and paper comes out the front so you can stack items on top of it during use.
Samsung doesn't offer a higher capacity toner cartridge but you can get one from checksnet that prints more pages and can be used for making checks.
Excellent print quality & quietest printer I've ever owned.

Unique look which does not compromise qualityApr 19, 2008
By Jean-Luc
This is my second Samsung (my previous model was a 1200 series which lasted 8 years and was eventually donated to our local school)
The ML-1630 is just stunning for a monochrome laser printer under $200. The look is unique, but as the title says, the quality is what you would expect from a home laser printer.
The characters are crisp and the graphics are perfect (2 settings, standard and above). It is very quiet, plug-and-play, can be shared without any issue on a local windows network. You get one year warranty which can be extended by another 3 months once you register your product online.
The only issue we got was with the paper. We were using recycled paper (which is quite thin) and sometimes the paper would be a little wrinkled. By switching to normal paper (Stapples), the problem went away.

Quiet fast monochrome laser printer - Samsung ML-1630Apr 21, 2008
By Bert Kulic
I bought this printer as a supplement to my HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-One. The Samsung ML-1630 laser is a very quiet monochrome laser printer. Print quality is excellent for text. Also the price per page for text is very reasonable. Printer is very quiet and prints text pages quickly.
Only mediocre for printing graphic images (such as coins) that are colored. The change to gray-scale comes out a little dark.
Pros: Very small foot-print, very good looking printer, low cost per page.
Cons: Color graphics come out dark when converted to gray-scale.

Prints well, will not work with Airport on MacsMay 30, 2009
By Amy G. Crittenden
"theala"
I bought this printer as a replacement for a 5 year old Brother printer. Although I had read reviews saying it did not work well wirelessly, I decided to give it a try based on otherwise good reviews.
At first all went well. As a printer it is excellent. Great print quality, and quiet.
However, it does not work well with Airport ever since I upgraded my OS to 10.5. It will do one print job, then freeze. I have to reset Airport for each and every print job. This is a real pain when I am working wirelessly, which is most of the time.
It still works fine if plugged directly into my MacBook Pro via USB.
Wireless is a futile effort. I've read numerous blogs on the problem, and solutions are temporary at best.
If you plan to use this printer plugged directly into your computer, then it is a good buy. If you plan to use wireless with a PC, I have heard that works but can't confirm. But don't buy if you plan to use wirelessly with a Mac.
One other minor inconvenience: the paper tray is rather small, and holds about 50 sheets. If you print lots of large jobs, I'd consider another printer.

Sleek, Stylish, and it works!Apr 18, 2009
By Paul
After a glitch in my Canon Pixma printer which caused me to break the thing with frustration, I found myself in the not-so-unique position of buying a new printer. I wanted something that could print speedily, looked nice, and didn't cost a lot per print. Yet at the same time I wanted to be able to scan. After due consideration, I think I came to best decision: buy a scanner and a simple monochrome laser printer. Before I tell you why I liked the Samsung ML-1630, let me say that I initially tried a Brother HL-2170w. That printer was easier to setup than others had me believe, but it consumed so much energy that my lights flickered with every print. Alas, I decided to buy this printer. What I like about it is that it is sleek, it doesn't consume a whole lot of desk space, it is quiet, and it works! No jams so far, and I'm 1000 pages in. The bundled cartridge is roughly half the capacity of a new cartridge, but I'm easily going to get more than the 1000 page estimate. In addition, the setup was so quick and easy that my 80 year old grandmother could do it, no problem. The directions were on a giant sheet of paper, basically plug it in, install driver disk, and go! If you're sick of all the software bundles from the likes of Canon and HP, you will be pleased with Samsung. In short, buy this printer if you need to print out a lot of basic monochrome sheets. Don't buy it if you want a feeder, print a lot of card stock, need to scan/duplex/copy, print photos, fax, etc. It does one job but it does it well.
