Samsung CLP-315

Introduced in the middle of May 2008, the CLP-315 is a compact budget colour laser printer from Samsung. Featuring a stylish yet simple exterior, the CLP-315 can print 17 ppm in black and 4 in colour. While slower and considerably less featured than similarly priced injet all-in-ones, the CLP-315 printing system is more accurate, vibrant and can produce much higher yields before needing to be refilled with toner.
