00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:07.359
today I'll be unboxing a product that I had to buy I've needed a printer for a

00:00:05.359 --> 00:00:12.320
while I don't live at home anymore so I can't use my parents printer and I can

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:17.800
only print out so much stuff at work before I get in trouble so I needed just

00:00:14.879 --> 00:00:22.519
like a value printer I don't believe in inkjet to be honest unless you must

00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:26.400
print out photos at home I can't think of a good reason to buy an inkjet

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:30.480
printer the nozzles dry up if you don't use them in you know a couple months and

00:00:28.439 --> 00:00:35.800
then you go and replace them I mean you can refill them but that's a pain so I

00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:42.039
got myself a cheap color laser printer this color laser printer is under $200

00:00:38.440 --> 00:00:43.440
it's a Samsung CLP 310n it is Network

00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:47.879
ready so that means that you don't actually have to plug it directly into a

00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:52.440
computer you can just plug it into your uh into your switch or your

00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:59.160
router okay I actually don't know much about it beyond the fact that it is a

00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:04.960
cheap color laser printer so what I can probably do when once I get it set up is

00:01:01.199 --> 00:01:08.280
share with you the results

00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:10.799
um in terms of printing I mean I guess

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:16.080
we can look at the specs although I'm not a printer expert so it does up to

00:01:13.240 --> 00:01:21.280
2400 DPI that's dots per inch it is ultra Compact and it operates quietly

00:01:19.320 --> 00:01:26.840
all of these are very good things for home use that side is not in English

00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:32.119
this side appears to be in English Okay so it's high

00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:33.840
speed no you thises highspeed USB 2.0

00:01:32.119 --> 00:01:38.119
rather it's not highp speed at all it does up to 17 pages per minute in Black

00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:44.200
four pages per minute in color that's letter size and wow that's all it really

00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.439
says about okay well since we're not really going to get any more information

00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:53.079
about this printer from the box why don't we open it up the reason I

00:01:50.240 --> 00:02:00.079
like laser is because compared to ink toner is well similar in price and

00:01:57.360 --> 00:02:04.680
compared to ink toner lasts a lot longer so yeah you're not going to get this

00:02:01.759 --> 00:02:08.360
printer for free with your you know uh digital camera that you buy or whatever

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:14.800
you do actually have to pay for a printer but the usable lifespan of it

00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:17.599
will be much much longer because you'll

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:22.360
probably get through years with maybe one or two toner refills assuming you

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:27.000
don't do a ton of printing at home all right included cables we

00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:30.920
have I'm just going to sort of do this because it's

00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:36.560
easier one power C so that's your standard computer power

00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:42.599
cable okay that was it and then we have a little um thing in French actually has

00:02:40.519 --> 00:02:45.120
no English on it okay it says something about registering your products I can

00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:49.800
read French okay uh then we have a quick start guide

00:02:48.040 --> 00:02:55.560
that'll be useful because I will want to get started quickly and I have a box

00:02:52.720 --> 00:03:00.200
open so naturally there are um investigators who would like to see

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:03.040
what's in the box okay stop before returning this product to the store

00:03:01.480 --> 00:03:08.239
please contact support okay you know what other documentation there is a disc

00:03:06.200 --> 00:03:12.959
with the driver on it don't install that download the latest from the Samsung

00:03:09.799 --> 00:03:15.840
website here is a random piece of

00:03:12.959 --> 00:03:21.760
foam okay so let's go ahead and flip this right

00:03:17.640 --> 00:03:21.760
over and have a look at the printer

00:03:23.519 --> 00:03:30.360
itself you know what's a rating I'd like to see on the outside of printer boxes

00:03:28.480 --> 00:03:35.360
how many pages per um C uh toner

00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:39.879
cartridge I think that would be a good thing to know because I would actually

00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:45.680
buy like a different printer I I'd buy one printer over another one based on

00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:48.599
more more pages with one cartridge of

00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:54.439
toner that would be useful so this printer actually uses

00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:57.400
four separate C cartridges it uses one

00:03:54.439 --> 00:04:05.159
for black one for yellow one for blue and one for pink I think it's

00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:07.879
magenta cyan and something else it fails

00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:13.799
me like I said I'm more of a motherboard and RAM and CPU expert than a printer

00:04:11.040 --> 00:04:18.639
expert I just kind of press the button and I hope that something comes out of

00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:20.880
it that's the extent of what I know uh

00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:24.199
the reason I went with a Samsung printer I don't know if I mentioned this already

00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:30.080
but this is something that I did have to buy so uh many of my unboxings are not

00:04:27.280 --> 00:04:33.880
products that I paid my own hard earned for but this is one of them is cuz I do

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:38.039
use a Samsung black and white one at work I think it's an ml 1610 it's been

00:04:36.440 --> 00:04:41.440
incredibly reliable I've done a ridiculous amount of printing on it and

00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:49.919
I've never actually replaced the cartridge so in here we find I guess if you need

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:52.240
to unjam something you would lift this

00:04:49.919 --> 00:04:57.919
up okay so that's where the paper comes out presumably there you have a little

00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:59.960
flap so the paper can come out on there

00:04:57.919 --> 00:05:04.280
uh in here we will find all of our toner cartridges

00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:08.320
so you can see that the black one is clearly larger than the colored ones

00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:11.759
because they're going to assume that you do a lot more black printing than color

00:05:10.039 --> 00:05:16.919
printing they have a little instructional thing on how to replace

00:05:14.039 --> 00:05:21.280
your cartridges right here and uh let's see if we can figure it out really quick

00:05:19.280 --> 00:05:26.319
okay so you pull in it oh that was easy okay so there's the

00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:31.400
black toner cartridge remember that when you buy uh a laser printer or an inkjet

00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:37.400
printer they usually come with starter cartridges so

00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:41.800
um yeah they're usually not actually

00:05:37.400 --> 00:05:44.880
full oh what's this oh weird so this has

00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:47.199
like some yellow gunk in it I have no

00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:51.440
idea what that's for so I'm going to actually have to read the user manual if

00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:55.280
you can tell me what this is for then uh please do anyway I'm going to go ahead

00:05:52.880 --> 00:05:59.759
and put my toner cartridge back in all right let's see if we can find some

00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:01.800
other features of this here Network

00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:07.000
printer so this appears to be the paper loading

00:06:02.840 --> 00:06:09.199
tray there we go so we load in our a4l

00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:13.000
paper it looks like it takes a variety of different sizes depending how you

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:19.800
want to adjust it and then you just go ahead fold it over

00:06:16.599 --> 00:06:21.840
and Chuck that in there hopefully it

00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:25.360
goes in a little bit more easily than it seems like yeah there we go all

00:06:26.840 --> 00:06:31.880
right and wow what is this

00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:38.080
I don't know okay well here's more access to the

00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:42.680
inside of guts of the printer just in case you need it here's our interfaces

00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:48.520
so there's your power button power input uh 1000 Ethernet like you need gigabit

00:06:44.960 --> 00:06:50.280
on a printer and then you've got a usbb

00:06:48.520 --> 00:06:55.000
connector for data if you do want to hook it up directly to your

00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:58.720
computer here you have that button that's basically the something went

00:06:56.919 --> 00:07:02.599
wrong but I fixed it button so if you run out of paper it'll probably flash

00:07:00.919 --> 00:07:06.039
some kind of light you put in more paper press the button and it should resume

00:07:03.919 --> 00:07:11.199
printing if it works like my printer at work does it says oh here it has a lift

00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:14.720
handle cuz it is quite heavy so if you are going to lift this printer you

00:07:12.919 --> 00:07:20.000
should lift it by the lift handle so I'm going to go install it now thank you for

00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:22.960
watching my unboxing of the CLP 310

00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:26.039
color 310n rather color laser printer from Samsung
