Personal monochrome laser printer - Brother or Samsung?

[theBill]

Hello, I'm buying a black&white laser printer for personal home use. Only feature that it must have is built-in (auto) duplex function (printing on both sides of the paper), and it has to be reliable. I don't need any fancy stuff like Network or Wireless options, I also don't print a lot, in fact my usage of printer is little to none. Few pages every now and then.

After reading quite a few on-line printer-review sites (printercomparison.com, Pcmag.com), i have narrowed the selection down to this two printers:

Brother HL-2240D

Samsung ML-2955ND

The Brother model reviews are little better, mostly on account of print quality (pcmag). Obviously, Samsung is a newer model, with more powerful processor (533 MHz compared to 200 MHz of Brother) and more memory (64 MB compared to 8 MB) - but how does this affect the printing, if at all? What do faster processor and more memory mean in performance, is there really any difference?


Feel free to suggest another model, if you think it has better price/performance or is more suitable for my needs.

More memory may be useful if you print several images on a page. If it is just text you print then a smaller memory buffer may work for you. Another consideration might be the cost of replacing the toner cartridges and how many pages you can print before you have to replace the cartridges.

BRother all the way in this one. Samsung is notorious for not being friendly to the customer about their printer. Brother on the other hand is very fair when it comes to compatible or remanufactured products. I've been buying cheap products for years from www.suppliesoutlet.com
