Business Printer Roundup – Which is right for you?

Samsung Xpress C480FW 4-in-1 Multifunction Printer

Choices, choices
This colour laser printer from Samsung is smaller than HP’s PageWide solution, but not every business needs to print at high speed or in massive volumes.

The C480 has a print speed of 4 pages per minute in colour and 18 pages per minute in black and white, and a monthly duty cycle of 50 000 pages. By all accounts this is perhaps the smallest printer in our round-up.

As to yield, on average the C480 produces up to 1 000 colour pages and 1500 mono prints per set of toner cartridges, which is rather minimal. It ships with Starter cartridges that yield 700 pages (mono) and 500 pages (colour), so you’re advised to buy a set of regular-yield cartridges along with the printer.

There are also some rather advanced features lurking under the hood, as the C480 offers NFC printing and printing from Google and Apple Airprint. Samsung’s solution does also have a large LCD touch panel and scanning to email, FTP, USB and direct to PC are nice to have.

The C480, then, is best suited to office environments which are smaller and have less reliance on print jobs, and which are looking to do basic printing at an affordable cost.

The Samsung is a solid all-rounder for smaller offices, but you will have to decide whether a smorgasbord of features trumps speed, volume and cartridge yield.
