Samsung
XPress SL-
C460FW
$399
Cheaply built
device that defers
extra costs to the
user in terms of
consumables life
Samsung included an unlit, 2-line LCD control panel that is incredibly hard to read and is not
adjustable to different angles or heights
Samsung’s device requires replacement of the fuser and the ITB after only 5K pages.
These are not user replaceable, require a service call, and the parts cost approximately half
the price of the device, not including service charges
Samsung has added a connector to Google Cloud Print, but they still haven’t included web-
connectivity or apps to send or receive information independent of a PC or mobile device
Whereas Samsung quotes a monthly duty cycle of 20K pages, the recommended monthly
page volume is only 46 color pages! Compare that to up to 950 monthly pages for HP!
Samsung’s print quality out of the box is very poor. Moreover, users are expected to
remove and shake the cartridges to uniformly distribute toner.
Samsung consumes over 2X the energy of HP (79.3 vs 37.2 kWh/yr)
Konica Minolta
magicolor 1690Mf
$379
Old device with
poor ease of use
and worst energy
consumption
amongst top
competitors
The Konica Minolta has more replacement parts than toner, users only have to replace
imaging drum for HP.
The Konica Minolta laser scanner window is directly under toner carousel which gets
contaminated and must be manually cleaned
Users must remove the sensitive OPC drum to clear paper jams, exposing it to possible
damage
Consumes 5X more energy annually than HP (187.9 kWh vs. 37.2 kWh)
The Konica Minolta magicolor 1690MF has a 32% slower first-page-out time from energy
save mode – 37 seconds vs. 28 seconds for HP
Dell

$369/$399
Xerox
WorkCentre
6015NI
$INA
These devices
share the same
Fuji-Xerox engine.
They support
fewere features
yet consume
more energy while
emitting more
noise.
The imaging system of Xerox/Fuji-Xerox devices is prone to inconsistent toner density and
mottled images. Because the OPC drum is irreplaceable, image quality tends to degrade
over the life of the product.
Users are expected to maintain print quality by manually cleaning all 4 LED scanner
windows and the Color Toner Density Sensor
Users must adjust the BTR charge and fuser temperature using a method of trial and error
to maintain proper print quality
These devices only support paper up to 43 lb bond, compared to 58 lb bond for HP
With less than half the processor speed and no support for advanced PDLs, these devices
will be slower processing complex jobs
The ADF of these devices only holds 15 originals; vs 50 pgs for HP
No support for web-connectivity, cloud connections, or business apps
Despite claiming low noise and energy consumption with an LED based design, these
devices are louder (51 vs 49 db; based on Dell) and consume more energy (50.4 vs 37.2
kWh/yr; based on Dell)
