Digital camera reviews of Samsung ML1740 Laser PrinterDigital camera Review: A big disappointment.... Summary: 1 Stars
Purchased this printer in Sept. after reading all the great reviews. Unfortunately, I cannot support all the raves. I have had nothing but problems since I purchased this printer (a great price after rebate)from Amazon. After it prints three or four pages, something happens where a window comes up and says, it is out of paper when the paper storage is completely full. This happens several times a day and I think that it is overheating or something similar since I shut if off for five minutes, and I can then print another four copies. I tried several times to get Samsung Tech Service and I get a recorded message that Samsung is experiencing difficulties and to call back. They're not the only ones having difficulties. I've decided to get another reliable Canon which I have on my other PC, which I have had for a couple of years without problems and just chalk the Samsung up as a "loser".
