Design
This printer has a pale grey case that is very discreet. It only comes with one paper tray that can take 150 sheets without multipurpose feed. Then, printed sheets feed out from a rounded aperture below the scanner.
Features
Its scanner lid features a finger groove located at the right-hand end. It folds back well when open. It also comes with extending hinges so that you can easily scan magazines and books. The control panel includes a 2-digit, 7-segment led display for number of copies and dedicated buttons for ID copy, Scan to, WPS, and Eco.
Connectivity
This printer connects via wireless or USB. Even though it doesn’t have LCD display, you can connect it easily. It features single-piece drum & toner cartridge that is easy to fit. It is rated at 1,500 pages.
The eco facilities go a lot further compared to similar machines. You can consider having an eco-preview pop up for each print so that you have the opportunity to print grey or outlined text & to choose diplex print.
Print Speed and Quality
Samsung SCX-3405 is able to manage 20 ppm. Of course, this top print speed is good enough as a laser printer. How about the result? It is undoubtedly impressive. For photo, the result is also excellent.
The effective resolution of 1200 dpi makes it able to produce good print quality. Even though the print speed is not the best, it offers toner save mode that can reduce running costs.
In addition, grayscales are well produced. Darker shades of grey may tend to blend one to another. However, it generally does better than average. This printer does not do well with grayscale copies. That’s why areas of fill become blotchy & full of unsightly spattering.
With only a single drum & toner cartridge, it costs about 143 pounds sterling. Even though some mono laser printers offer lower running costs, SCX-3405 offers a fair running cost.
Verdict
Samsung SCX-3405 is a versatile, mono laser all-in-one printer that provides an improved set of eco facilities. The provision of wireless connection as well as direct print from tablets & phones is unusual in a budget laser printer.
