Samsung ML-2164 Ok po ba ito in terms of Quality Build and durability

  • Ok po ba ito in terms of Quality Build and durability?

    yung Samsung ML1660 ko po kasi medyo d na ok mag print khit palitan drum at cartridge toner pero sulit ang tagal na kasi 5years naka 100k print na.

    Ito samsung ML2164 mura kasi, ok din kaya. Pede din kaya continuous siya lalagayan lang ng tape ung chip reset na yung counter nia. ok din po kaya refill po dito.

    sana may mag share ng mga experience if good or bad.

    Need ko po kasi new laser printer na budget type pero matibay.

    Thanks guyz

  • afaik you can\'t just put tape sa contacts ng toner package with the newer printers because of updated firmware.

    You\'ll need to either hack your printer\'s firmware or have reset chips installed in the toner package themselves.

  • @marbie,

    meron ako nyan sir...
    november last year nabili, around 1.5k yung price
    here are my inputs:

    maganda naman po printouts nito...
    compact, small space required
    parang sinlaki nga lang ng bond paper eh

    medyo mahirap po maghanap ng brandnew cartridge nito
    o baka sadyang ako lang kasi taga sta rosa laguna ako, limited stores

    toner refill costs 600, not sure kung may mas mura pa dyan
    kung gusto mo kasama cartridge around 1700 [di po brandnew yan]

    kung toner refilling lang po... di magre-reset yung counter,
    low toner pa din lalabas sa printer pero you can still print normally

    kung bibili ka with cartridge, magre-reset po yung counter,
    balik 100% toner mo, pero syempre mas costly
    mas mahal pa nga bumili ng cartridge + refill kesa sa actual printer eh

    naka 3x refill na ako since november last year,
    medyo madami kasi ako mag-print, usually office stuff
    yung 1st refill ko bumili ako including yung cartridge
    yung 2nd & 3rd sabay ko pina-refill, sayang kasi both cartridges

    as of now yung 2nd refill palang ginagamit ko
    meron pa ako spare cartridge, printouts is more or less 1.5k pages

    maintenance wise, kung sakaling magka-problema
    baka mas maganda siguro na bumili nalang ulit ng same item
    kesa naman ipagawa tapos mahal naman labor costs + parts

    good luck!
