Manual of product CLX-3305FN
Editorial note
The Samsung CLX-3305FN all-in-one printer stands out for its multiple features, including printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. Its print quality is remarkable thanks to a maximum resolution of 2400 x 600 DPI, ensuring sharp and precise documents, both in black and color. Additionally, with a print speed of 18 pages per minute for black prints, this model optimizes user productivity. However, some drawbacks must be considered. The color print speed, limited to 4 pages per minute, can be frustrating for those who frequently print color documents. The lack of automatic duplex printing and wireless connectivity limits flexibility and efficiency in resource management. Furthermore, the 150-sheet paper capacity may prove insufficient for high-volume printing offices, requiring frequent reloads. Regarding ratings, user experience receives a score of 75, highlighting overall satisfaction but noting frustrations related to connectivity limitations. Performance is rated satisfactory with a score of 70, especially for black printing, while energy consumption in sleep mode is praised with a score of 85, contributing to notable energy savings. The design receives a score of 65, emphasizing the printer's weight, which complicates its movement. Finally, the value for money is rated good with a score of 78, although the paper capacity may not suit all work environments. In summary, the Samsung CLX-3305FN is a solid choice for users seeking a versatile printer, provided they take into account its limitations in certain features.Score details
