Looks like Samsung is thinking bigger by getting smaller. Makes sense, considering it's a Korean company, and Asian consumers tend to have a lot less desk space available to them, but this focus on less clutter certainly can't be bad for buyers elsewhere either. With additions like Wi-Fi network connectivity and connections to get rid of networking cords, and a footprint of only 38.4 cm wide, the CLP-310 laser printer series boasts a color laser printer that can fit easily in any workstation.

This article paints a very pretty picture of it, but I found one note interesting. There's a toner-saver mode that will "automatically adjust the toner output, yet not compromise on print quality." Maybe I'm nit-picking, but if it really doesn't compromise on print quality, then shouldn't that mode be on all the time?

Regardless, the move towards more affordable and smaller laser printers definitely seems to tipping the scales for home users.

Maybe it's me, but I think in this article, it looks like Samsung has finally broken the home-office barrier for laser printers. The initial price is comparable to an inkjet, the size and look are sleek and stylish, and a laser toner cartridge lasts for 1500-2000 pages. Granted, toner cartridges are more expensive than inkjet cartridges, but from everything else I'm reading, it still seems like a better deal. The only real drawback I see is that it's a monochrome printer, so it's no good for printing photos, etc, but for everyday use in printing everything else, it's a giant step forward over the bulky and costly laser printers of the past.
