Prints Well, Too Expensive to Maintain.......2007-05-17
We've had this printer in our office for 12 months and now it is no longer able to be used because the transfer belt and imaging unit have reached their predetermined copy limit. Even though they work just fine, after x amount of prints they stop working. It costs $300-$500 to replace these parts. What a joke. We even bought an extended warranty and we were sent an even more used printer without the parts in question! They're considered consumable and aren't covered by the warranties at all. I would NOT recommend buying this printer.
Problematic Printer.......2006-12-15
I have this printer for over 8 months now, and this printer has problems. The sensor that detects waste toner level is weak for many of the CLP-510 printers, causing it to report an error that waste toner bin needs to be replaced before it would print again. Even if the sensor is not weak, the waste toner bin itself is poorly designed where when waste toner goes in it, it gets on the section of the bin where the sensor detects the bin as full. I clean the bin, but it would detect it as full soon again after 50 prints. The waste toner is suppose to lasts for over 1,000 prints.
Search the internet for "CLP-510 Waste Toner Problems" for more info.
Other than that, text prints looks good. Color prints are good enough for non-business use and non-photo prints. I tried to print photos on photo paper, but after the 5th one in a roll, I think the printer got too hot that the toners wouldn't stay on the photo papers. Maybe before it was the thickness and the smoothness of the paper has something to do with it too. Now the rollers in the printer are dirty and leaves a black spot on my prints.
Another problem, it jams more than I would like. About once every 20 prints.
My advice, DO NOT BUY it. It seems like a great printer the first 2 or 3 months, after that, it's problem after problem.
Print Quality and paper weight.......2006-10-26
We've been using these printers at work for 2 years now. While the manual does indeed state 24lb paper for duplex printing, we've found that we get excellent print quality in duplex using Office Depot's 28lb 115 bright laser paper. It does the best job we've seen.
poor and bad support of mediocre product.......2006-04-25
Purchased this for a networked small office environment (three users). When we had print quality issues a few months after installation our young secretary called support and was told to clean the drum with a paper towel. That's it! She took it out and damaged it in the light. Why would tech support tell you to take the drum out to clean it and not warn you about exposure to light? More calls and more of the same poor help. At their suggestion, she spent $400 on new cartridges, to no avail. Now they want us to ship it back to CA from New England.
All we have done is sink money into this thing! Do I now want to invest in a new drum? I used a B&W HP Laserjet for many years, with low maintenance and few problems. If you don't know how to properly maintain it, you are doomed!
A follow-up: I replaced the drum and cleaned everything thoroughly. The printer then performed satisfactorily. Don't depend on tech support to give you good advice and don't get a laserjet if you can't or won't do the maintenance.
Thrilled with the results on 20-24lb paper.......2005-12-16
Thrilled with the results on 20-24lb paper
I found the Samsung CLP-510N to be a great bargain, but only for 20-24lb paper. This is what I bought it for. What can you expect for $300? (from other site) This is fantastic for $300. I see crystal clear, colorful, well-defined print. I even printed an 8X10 photo of an electronics printed circuit board with components on it and found the quality excelent at default normal resolution setting. But I would not expect true old-fashioned optical printed photo quality from like a portrait photo, from a $300 laser printer, on any paper. I would be proud of the print quality to all my customers, but I do not print photos for them. Among other things like letters and agreements, and service reports; I print controller programming "ladder-diagrams" in color, all are crisp, clean, and impressive.
I noticed that a couple of CNET revewiers knocked it down because "The photo quality is awful, extremely grainy and jagged on one, a second printed photo had obvious blotches, "lines" and grain." Well, do your homework and download the printer manual before buying it. The manual clearly states on page E-5 ("Supported Sizes of Paper"):
"* 60 to 90g/m2 bond (16 to 24lb) for single-sided printing
* 75 to 90 g/m2 bond (20 to 24lb) for duplex printing"
And for the manual feeder ("Multi-purpose tray"):
"60 to 163g/m2 bond (16 to 43lb)"
Paper type is very important in a printer. I'd wager a weeks pay that said reveiwers were using paper heavier than 24lb. However, I will knock Samsung down half a point for failing to note this on their datasheet pdf, but only half a point because of the cheap price. Have you seen any photo paper 20-24lb? No. This printer is not for photos. I tried 58lb HP glossy laser photo paper in it, it did not work, the toner was not fused to the paper. This may cause a mess in there, and perhaps the other reveiwers tried this too much causing errant ink on subsequent 20-24lb paper as well!
I could not regester to log on to CNET to submit my review, they said it was my cookie settings, but even when I turned my security settings to "low" I could not. Their loss not mine.
One more thing to note, though, if you turn on duplexing, in the printer menu or in the software, the printer will run two passes whether or not you are printing a single page. This slows down the print rate considerably. What's more, I found that when you open an application, select print, and change the "print preferences" duplexing option, most apps will print with the original options instead, ignoring the duplex on-or-off change you just made. So set your options before opening the app, and close the app to change them again. This was true with both Win98 SP2 and WinXP SP2. So I knock another half point off for this, only half because of the cheap price.
You will not get $3,000 printer results from this printer, if you need to print on a variety of paper types like glossy photo paper and card stock, then you must expect to pay a premium price for your laser printer (of another more-expensive brand). Again, this printer prints much better than I expected for $300, and has a built-in duplexer to boot. Don't buy a Kia and expect performance like a Caddilac.

Nextar sells horrible GPS units that at 1st glance seem great.......2007-12-16
The Nextar GPS looks great, has a rechargeable battery, blah, blah... but when it comes down to actually working it sucks. The 1.6million points of interest is drastically behind any other GPS unit on the market. If you dont mind following a route only to find that the map is at least 2 years out dated and the road is actually closed, then you'll love it. There have been many times that I've come to a bridge or road that has been around for 3 years+, but it doesn't show up on the map. No new home addresses are being added, and at the rate that they're being built... those of us that already got suckered into buying a Nextar are out of luck since they haven't and according to customer service, don't plan to offer any map updates at this time. Sometimes it takes the unit 5 or 10 minutes to figure out where I am, which is pretty inconvienent when it's time to leave and I don't have any clue which way to start heading while the unit sits there being usless. Thanks a lot Nextar for taking my $400 then leaving us high and dry without customer service or updates. I will never in my life buy a product from them again. It's become obosolete very quickly.
on the road again..........2007-12-06
i bought my nextar Q3 navigation on black friday and got a great deal. i had never heard of nextar but i figured i would give it a shot. so it is awesome! it lived up tp my expectations and beyond! couldnt ask for a better navigation system!
Only as Good as the Company.......2007-11-19
I have been using the Q3 for over a year now, and will stop just as soon as I can replace it. The unit works most of the time, but tends to scramble the maps or just lock up during a longer trip. The MP3 player skips. The maps were outdated when I got the unit and so far the company has no updates to maps or poor software. Attempts to contact tech support have been thwarted by Nextar. They have made it clear to me that once they have your money, you're on your own. I will never buy a Nextar product again.
terrible customer service.......2007-09-21
Bought the nextar Q3 gps for our vacation this summer. Took it out of the box charged the battery. Put it in the car hook up dc cord only to find out 3 hours later when the battery went dead the dc cord wasn't working. Called customer service they promised to send new cord in 7 to 10 days. Three times they promised to send a cord and on the fourth try they wanted me to buy one. I will never buy another nextar product nor should anyone else. The customer service is terrible they have no problem lying to their customers. I hope it not too late return it too the store
Kind of like taking Mapquest along for the ride.......2007-09-12
I had been looking at various GPS units for some time for my wonderful, but directionally challenged husband but was put off by the price and the monthly fees required by some. When I found this unit was offered by a local department store at a deeply discounted price I decided to check it out. I was very pleased because:
1. There is no monthly fee involved.
2. The screen is large enough to read.
3. The unit gives directions as you go along, both written and verbal, including updates 'in one mile turn....in 1/2 mile....in 500 ft etc'
4. When a turn has been missed the route is recalibrated, first prompting the driver to correct the error then ultimately selecting an alternate route.
5. There is a wealth of information, besides route ETA, speed (with the option to set a warning), altitude, local points of interest including restaurants, gas stations, etc.
We took this along on several trips since getting this, one of several hundred miles, others a bit closer, and were quite pleased for the most part. For the most part this was like having Mapquest in the car with you. It had some of the same problems as Mapquest (addresses might be slightly different, recent changes to route not noted etc) but had the advantage of being able to recalculate the route if you for any reason deviated from the plan, like to stop at a restaurant. There were a few minor problems some were caused by our reluctance to really read the manual, preferring to just push buttons and figure it out, others are inherent to this product.
First the on/off switch is in the back and must be operated with a pen/bent paperclip. Once started it did take a long time to locate the satellite and load. Another issue is that, like mapquest, local names are not always used and addresses may not appear exactly like they are used. In addition we discovered that a very small (pop 300) town we were looking for was not available on this unit. Most of these problems were minor inconveniences.
I highly recommend this product particularly for those who have not had a GPS before. It is quite user friendly and forgiving of operator error.
