Samsung ML1740 Laser Printer

I own 4 of these fast little printers. The replacement cartridge costs $80, but to add toner yourself cost only about $10. All is takes is unscrewing 5 screws. The other models are not that easy. Well worth the investment if you print a lot. My printer has paid for itself many times over

I needed this specific printer in my graphic art studio for printing on a specific substrate. The seller offered the needed item at a price that was lower than any place else. I utilize this pronter on a daily basis and it produces a product of the quality that I require. Seller and buyer completed the transaction flawlessly and I would highly recommend this seller to everyone.

I bought it because I have a Samsung 1710 printer that has worked well for me and now I need another for my kid's computer. The 1740 printer I received was sent in a box that was smaller than the printer and had no padding or packing material at all. The set-up disc was cracked but the printer was still in one piece, so I couldn't file a claim with the Post Office, but it does not work, due to internal damage. I wish I could rate the performance for you, but thanks to a very poor seller/shipper - I can't. Iam still trying to resolve this thru ebay and paypal - it has been a month with no luck.

Initially, I went on vacation and missed that I had the winning bid - I contributed to this less then good review and accept some of the responsibility.

Having said that - Delivery was twice as long as advertised. The printer was received 2 days less then 1 month by Federal Express Ground. The printer is good but not excellent. The part that catches paper is missing. The plastic hinges that hold the toner door broke off during shipping due to very poor packaging by the seller.

My rating of below average is a comparison with other Ebay sellers that I have used.

the printer samsung ml1740 is in perfect condition , looks like knew. samsung laser printer is the kind of printer I like most, no noises, good color white. etxc

This seller is considerate and beyond professional. Ansered all questions quickly and the printer was delivered in perfect condition. It had a toner cartridge installed and an extra new cartridge included also. I am impressed and proud of this seller!

Our company is very happy with our new Samsung ML-1740. It is working very well, when we received our new printer all we did was plug it in and upload it to our computer and start working. Thank you again...

This is my second printer for this model I work the heck out of it at the office and I love the way it works. This printer even got wet during Hurricane Ike and still works. Four out of the five printers we have still work. One really got flooded.

If the printer hadn't been broken, it would have been great. These have a tendency to pop out some of the guides when a paper jam occurs. That's what appears to have happened to this one and in the process it broke some of the pieces inside that hold it together.

I've owned mine for about a year and a half with no problems so far. It's perfect for just about any smaller print job where you don't need color but you need the waterproof quality of laser. The gray scale is decent, not outstanding but it gets the job done. I'm mainly blown away that there's a laser printer that offers speed, quality and reliabilty for such a low price. The printer accepts serial or usb cables to operate. I paid somewhere around $40.00 for mine when it was new and found some really great, inexpensive replacement toner (non-oem) on ebay and I still have some of it left after a year! The paper cassette hold close to half a ream and heavier media like cardstock is fed to the back of the unit. I've read complaints about the noise level when it's activated out of sleep mode for a print job but it's minimal in my opinion and really the least of my concerns with this product. After using my ML-1740 I would upgrade to another Samsung laser printer in this series in a heartbeat. A competing model in this class of printers is probably the Brother HL series although I have no experience with them. Bottom line is if you're looking for an inexpensive, reliable and good quality monochrome laser printer then the Samsung ML-1740 is a great choice.

I've been using this ML1740 printer in my office, the price is cheap but the quality is very good. so I bought this again for my friend's office.
