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

00:00:05.279 --> 00:00:12.080
while i don't live at home anymore so i can't use my parents printer and

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:17.199
i can only print out so much stuff at work before i get in trouble so i needed

00:00:14.559 --> 00:00:20.720
just like a value printer i don't believe in inkjet

00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:24.560
to be honest unless you must print out photos at home i can't think of a good

00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:28.960
reason to buy an inkjet printer the nozzles dry up if you don't use them in

00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:32.719
you know a couple months and then you go and replace them i mean you can refill

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:37.280
them but that's a pain so i got myself a cheap color laser

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:43.040
printer this color laser printer is under 200 it's a samsung clp 310n it is

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.719
network ready so that means that you don't actually have to plug it directly

00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:50.399
into a computer you can just plug it into your uh into your switch or your

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:56.160
router okay i actually don't know much about it

00:00:53.199 --> 00:01:01.199
beyond the fact that it is a cheap color laser printer so what i

00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:05.600
can probably do once i get it set up is share with you the results

00:01:03.199 --> 00:01:10.000
um in terms of printing i mean i guess we

00:01:08.320 --> 00:01:15.680
can look at the specs although i'm not a printer expert so it

00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:18.240
does up to 2400 dpi that's dots per inch

00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:23.600
it is ultra compact and it operates quietly all of these are very good

00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:25.920
things for home use that side is not in

00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:32.320
english this side appears to be in english okay so it's high speed

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:36.640
no it uses high speed usb 2.0 rather it's not high speed at all it does up to

00:01:34.240 --> 00:01:41.119
17 pages per minute in black four pages per minute in color that's letter size

00:01:39.520 --> 00:01:45.040
and wow that's all it really says okay well

00:01:43.520 --> 00:01:48.240
since we're not really going to get any more information about this printer from

00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:51.840
the box why don't we open it up the reason i

00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:56.880
like lasers because compared to ink toner is

00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:01.439
well similar in price and compared to ink toner lasts a lot

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:06.560
longer so yeah you're not going to get this printer for free with your you know

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:09.200
digital camera that you buy or whatever you do actually have to pay for a

00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:15.120
printer but the usable lifespan of it will be

00:02:11.920 --> 00:02:16.879
much much longer because you'll probably

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:21.200
get through years with maybe one or two toner refills

00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:25.200
assuming you don't do a ton of printing at home all right included cables we

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:29.040
have i'm just going to sort of do this

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:34.400
because it's easier one power cable so that's your standard

00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:34.400
computer power cable

00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:42.160
okay that was it and then we have a little um thing in french

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:45.760
it actually has no english on it okay so something about registering your

00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:49.680
products i can read french okay uh then we have a quick start guide

00:02:47.920 --> 00:02:53.920
that'll be useful because i will want to get started quickly

00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:57.200
and i have a box open so naturally there are

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:00.879
um investigators who would like to see what's in the box

00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:05.120
okay stop before returning this product to the store please contact support okay

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:09.040
you know what other documentation there is a disc with the driver on it don't

00:03:07.440 --> 00:03:13.680
install that download the latest from the samsung website

00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:15.920
here is a random piece of foam

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:22.000
okay so let's go ahead and flip this right over

00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:22.000
and have a look at the printer itself

00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:30.080
you know what's a rating i'd like to see on the outside of printer boxes

00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:35.599
how many pages per um card uh toner cartridge

00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:40.319
i think that would be a good thing to know because i would actually buy like

00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:46.560
a different printer i buy one printer over another one based on more

00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:49.280
more pages with one cartridge of toner that would be useful

00:03:49.519 --> 00:03:55.760
so this printer actually uses four separate cards cartridges it uses one

00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:59.040
for black one for yellow one for blue and one for

00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:04.480
pink i think it's magenta cyan and

00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:10.159
something else it fails me like i said i'm more of a

00:04:06.959 --> 00:04:13.200
motherboard and RAM and CPU expert than

00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:14.720
a printer expert i just kind of press

00:04:13.200 --> 00:04:20.000
the button and i hope that something comes out of it that's the extent of what i know

00:04:18.320 --> 00:04:23.680
uh the reason i went with a samsung printer i don't know if i mentioned this

00:04:21.840 --> 00:04:28.479
already but this is something that i did have to buy so uh many of my unboxings

00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:32.320
are not products that i paid my own hard-earned dollars for but

00:04:30.400 --> 00:04:36.400
this is one of them is because i do use a samsung black and white one at work i

00:04:34.080 --> 00:04:40.000
think it's an ml1610 it's been incredibly reliable i've done a

00:04:37.840 --> 00:04:43.759
ridiculous amount of printing on it and i've never actually replaced the

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:47.600
cartridge so in here we find i guess if you need to

00:04:46.479 --> 00:04:52.400
unjam something you would lift this up

00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:58.000
okay so that's where the paper comes out presumably there you have a little flap

00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:59.840
so the paper can come out on there

00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:04.240
in here we will find all of our toner cartridges

00:05:02.080 --> 00:05:08.240
so you can see that the black one is clearly larger than the colored ones

00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:11.680
because they're going to assume that you do a lot more black printing than color

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:16.000
printing they have a little instructional thing on how to replace

00:05:13.919 --> 00:05:22.080
your cartridges right here and uh let's see if we can figure it out

00:05:18.080 --> 00:05:24.639
really quick okay so you pull on it

00:05:22.080 --> 00:05:27.280
oh that was easy okay so there's the black toner cartridge remember that when

00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:30.800
you buy a laser printer or an inkjet printer

00:05:29.440 --> 00:05:34.880
they usually come with starter cartridges so um

00:05:34.960 --> 00:05:39.840
yeah they're usually not actually fall

00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:46.479
oh what's this oh weird so this has like some yellow gunk in it

00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:49.840
i have no idea what that's for so i'm gonna actually have to read the

00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:55.039
user manual if you can tell me what this is for then please do anyway i'm gonna go ahead

00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:58.240
and put my toner card back in all right let's see if we can find some

00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:03.600
other features of this here network printer so this

00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:07.280
appears to be the paper loading tray there we go

00:06:05.039 --> 00:06:10.880
so we load in our a4 letter paper it looks like it takes a variety of

00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:14.479
different sizes depending how you want to adjust it and then you just go ahead

00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:16.720
fold it over and

00:06:17.520 --> 00:06:22.560
chuck that in there hopefully it goes in a little bit more

00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:25.440
easily than it seems like yeah there we go all right

00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:35.120
and wow what is this i don't know

00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:39.360
okay well here's more access to the inside of guts of the printer

00:06:37.680 --> 00:06:44.240
just in case you need it here's our interfaces so there's your power button

00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:46.400
power input uh 100 Ethernet like you

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:51.199
need gigabit on a printer and then you've got a usb b connector for data if

00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:55.199
you do want to hook it up directly to your computer

00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:59.120
here you have that button that's basically the something went wrong but i

00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:02.800
fixed it button so if you run out of paper it'll probably flash some kind of

00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:07.120
light you put in more paper press the button and it should resume printing if

00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:11.280
it works like my printer at work does it says oh here it has a lift handle

00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:14.720
because it is quite heavy so if you are going to lift this printer you should

00:07:13.039 --> 00:07:22.560
lift it by the lift handle so i'm going to go install it now thank you for watching my unboxing of the clp

00:07:19.039 --> 00:07:25.840
310 color 310n rather color laser

00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:25.840
printer from samsung
