Great Printer - If you set it up right By Chet I recently purchased this printer from another retailer after doing quite a bit of research into colors laser printers. I purchased this printer due to the reviews, and because it was network-ready. After setting up the printer, I had a small problem. The first print after powering on the printer would smudge and the toner would smear. It was as if the fuser wasn't hot enough to set the toner to the paper. I tried several different paper types, but the first print would always come out with bad results. After the first print, it was better, but still not perfect. Not satisfied with the results, I set out to find the cause. I found the answer in a review of a different Konica Minolta printer here on Amazon. Read this carefully: The printer ships with 2 green switches in the "envelope" position. Unless you flip these two switches to the "paper" position you will get smearing and smudges. It is not readily apparent from the pictures-only instructions that are included with the printer that these should be flipped. They are green, and located on the left and right sides of the printer when you open the top cover near where the paper comes out. There is a picture of an envelope on the switch, but you cannot see it until after you've flipped it. Make absolutely sure you flip these or you will have problems. These switches control how tightly the paper is pushed against the fuser to set the toner. After flipping the switches, I am very happy with the results from the printer. The colors are vibrant and the text is razor sharp. I added some extra memory to the printer because I had an old 128MB DIMM laying around. Beware if you want to put more memory in the printer: you must have single-sided DIMMS (chips on one side of the module only). If you have a double-sided DIMM it will only recognize half the memory on the module. I didn't notice a difference after installing the extra memory since I had no problems printing large images at the highest quality anyway. The standard warnings apply as with all laser printers. The unit ships with "starter" toner cartriges that are not full. When you repalce them, it will cost you quite a bit of money. Nothing unique to this printer, but still annoying. I believe the ones that ship with the printer will get you around 1500 pages. Also, it does not print photo-quality images, but no color laser will. Know what you're buying. I highly recommend this printer for home use. It produces fast, high-quality images, razor-sharp text, it's network-ready, and has Linux drivers (not Postscript). 31 of 31 people found the following review helpful. Absolutely incredible!!! WOW!!! I cannot BELIEVE the high quality!!! By Christine Holzmann Okay...so I know I sound over ecstatic about this printer but, quite simply, that is because I really am!! For starters, I am a graphics professional and a REALLY finnicky, ultra picky person who also suffers from being too much of a perfectionist. Whenever I get something new that plays a somewhat critical part to what I do, I am EXTREMELY critical of it from the very beginning and look for the flaws from the word go. Once a few days/couple of weeks have passed and it has "passed" than I will keep it. The quality of the final output is very important to me, doing what I do. And I bet you are already asking yourself the question, "Well, if it is THAT critical, why not be prepared to spend a lot more if you really want quality so that you can get what you pay for? How can you expect such a low priced product to meet your high expectations?" Well, truth of the matter is that I am in the process of getting a house, so ANYTHING costs a LOT right now to me (money flies in all directions when you move into a new home...you know how it is) and so I was actually going to wait another year or so until I was able to spend a lot more on a really decent color
