SAMSUNG LASER ML-1610 - 39.99 was 79.99 (CLOSED)

I bought one of these about 6 months ago for the same price. Its not bad as laser printers go. Idean for home use. New 2000 Page Toner Cartriges come in at about £31 from CCL Computers (cclcomputers.co.uk)
And No it didn't come with a USB cable to conenct to the PC.

Staples stores have this printer for 49-99 and I'm sure there was a £5 off £30 pound spend somewhere on the MSE.

to refill the ml 1610 printer.............. I will look up the site and post it asap

if you take the cartridge out... it has a folding handle
hold it in front of you...... the right hand end/side is where you refill
2 screws ... one near middle, one near top end....

We phoned up staples and were told they don't do it anymore. We wanted them to because they do a 150% price promise.

I use one all the time. Got it from PC World on their price match promise. At that time I showed a Staples advert as proof. Suggest if they are nearer to you than Comet then get them to price match. I have a ready supply of old toner cartridges and refill the Samsung quite easily, but do it outside on a calm day - as the powder is filthy and "travels well".

there is a picture for another samsung model here which is very similar

they sell toner plus detailed instructions
also these people sell toner with detailed instructions

you get abottle of toner with instructions

the "bung" is under the plastic plate which is held on by 2 screws

this samsung printer is a real deal if you have a go and refill it yourself. the cartridges are about 40-50 quid, so not too good there, but to refil they cost about 10-12 quid for a couple of refills. it is easy to do and i haven't noticed any different results in the years i have been doing it.

look on ebay for the kits.

I have a slightly earlier Samsung model than the one listed and am now on my fourth full refill. I bought my toner from http://www.cartridgeco.co.uk, but initially used their freephone number for advice - 0800 195 7462. I tend to refill the toner cartridge outside on a warm dry day to avoid potential mess.

I have ordered a samsung 1610 from pixmania.com, I was just wondering regarding the refills. I have a full toner for a dell printer no longer working, could I use the toner from that and put it in the samsung cartridge does anyone know?

well its a great price - but its from comet and if it goes wrong you may be stuck with it - just look for posts on comet on this site.

to get cheap cartridges for this printer try
https://www.box-shift.co.uk
as they do great ones much cheaper than the originals.

also if you do some research you will find better lasers for a little bit more but are much cheaper to run.

my hp gets a 9,250 cartridge for £40 and using the software settings it will do double that.
also some places do an older hp printer that is a recon - but they do many more pages per cartridge.

have lots of recons as low as £22 + delivery and they will be much cheaper to run than the samsung, but the samsung is still a bargain at the price.

hope that helps
