Manual of product SCX-4729FD
Editorial note
The Samsung SCX-4729FD printer stands out for its all-in-one versatility, offering copying, faxing, printing, and scanning features. This ability to meet various needs in a single device makes it an ideal choice for modern offices. The print quality also meets expectations, thanks to its laser technology and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, ensuring clear and professional results. In terms of performance, this device is fast, with a print speed of 28 pages per minute and a first copy output time of only 8 seconds, which is particularly appreciated in demanding work environments. Additionally, the duplex printing function helps save paper, contributing to more sustainable practices. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits wireless printing options, requiring a connection via Ethernet or USB cable. Furthermore, its weight of 10.3 kg can pose challenges when installing or moving the device in tight spaces. The 250-sheet paper capacity may also be insufficient for high-volume environments, leading to more frequent reloads. Finally, while the value for money is satisfactory, the 128 MB internal memory may prove inadequate for heavy tasks, resulting in slowdowns. Despite these few limitations, the printer's robustness, capable of handling up to 12,000 pages per month, attests to its durability and design tailored to the needs of professionals.Score details
