PROS

  • The Samsung Xpress M2835DW is a compact network printer that can be shared by home or small office users.
  • You can connect to your network with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, and NFC.
  • The Xpress M2835DW exhibits excellent paper handling and holds up to 250 sheets.

CONS

  • The supplied documentation is inadequate, sometimes resulting in setup issues.
  • The printer can take up to 20 seconds pre-processing for the first print, and printing gray scales shows slight banding patterns.
  • It's reported to have weak technical support.
The compact Samsung Xpress M2835DW monochrome laser printer is a home or small-office sharable printer with a few bells and whistles. At a street price of under $100 and either a 1200 or 3000 page yield per toner cartridge depending on quality settings, it costs little to buy and little to run. The printer holds up to 250 sheets and you can print up to 29 ppm with built-in duplexing for good quality on text projects. Connect to your network using Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi Direct, or directly to your PC with USB. Print from your NFC-capable mobile device through the Samsung app.

We've tried to find fault with this printer, but it really has been difficult. Print quality is strong, the design is generally fantastic, and all of the features work exactly how they should.
