Samsung Introduces Affordability to Wireless Printing Technology While Increasing Workgroup Productivity

RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The rising use of wireless printing is largely due to the significant flexibility it offers, enabling users on the same network to conveniently print from anywhere. Whether printing from a desktop at home, the office or from different mobile devices, including laptops or handheld PDAs, wireless connectivity is making it easier for workers to be productive and effective at their jobs. In addition, wireless printing saves valuable time and space by eliminating the clutter caused by cables and wires.

To deliver the same value and flexibility to its customers, Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Corporation, the world's second-largest manufacturer of laser printer engines, today introduced a new line of wireless printers – the CLX-3175FW, ML-1630W and SCX-4500W. Equipped with integrated 802.11b/g wireless connectivity, the models offer the space- and time-saving benefits that workgroups require to remain successful. Along with their convenient, wireless capability, the models’ compact, sophisticated design is suited to the most distinctive tastes. The CLX-3175FW, ML-1630W and SCX-4500W models are now available at an MSRP of $642.99, $285.99 and $428.99 respectively.

“Our new wireless printer lineup shows Samsung’s desire to create products that makes conducting business simple for workgroups, without the hassle of wires and limitations that hard-wired printers impose,” said Ken Colby, Director of Product Management, Printers, at Samsung Electronics’ Information Technology Division. “The CLX-3175FW, ML-1630W and SCX-4500W models offer the plug-and-play connectivity and unobtrusive design that today’s users expect from Samsung.”

Small, Sleek and Silent Solutions

The CLX-3175FW is a wireless color laser 4-in-1 solution that allows for printing, copying, scanning and faxing, all in an elegantly-designed, matte-black cabinet for any office setting. The model is equipped with high-speed USB 2.0 and Ethernet for instant plug-and-play capability.

Reported as one of the smallest, network-ready laser printers in the world, the ML-1630W model has a high-style glossy piano black finish, buttonless soft-touch sensor panels with blue LED indicators, and its 45 dBA ranks it as one of the quietest printer in the world.

The ultra-compact SCX-4500W wireless laser multi-function printer is known to be one of the smallest network-ready laser printer/copier/color scanners in the world. Similar to the ML-1630W model, the printer has a high-style glossy piano black finish that adds a touch of class to any environment.
