Samsung ML-2510 Laser Printer

This Samsung performs exceptionally well except for one thing. It consumes an extreme amount of current even when it's not being used. I thought that something was wrong with my electrical wiring in the house after my lights started flicking (for about 2 seconds at five minute intervals), until I read another review on Amazon from someone (Patrick J.) who experienced the same thing. Then I immediately knew that it was the printer. I switched it off and the flickering lights stopped. I'm still in shock that someone else experienced this and am starting to wonder if it should be recalled and pulled off the market. It prints text as well as pictures with great speed and vivid accuracy. The paper feed tray is the most user-friendly one I've ever used. Toner last a good long time considering that I've had it five months and haven't needed to replace it yet with normal to heavy usage at times. The replacement toner is model ml-2010D3. Amazon has them refurbished for around 35.00 which is quite a savings over the original $60-70 new. It's quiet enough as to not wake up the neighbors. As long as you remember to turn it off when not in use and don't care about the power fluctuations in your home, then it's a good deal for the price.
