Timely warning - I was about to buy a Samsung printer

Just in case anybody from Samsung is reading: I bought a Xerox printer instead. Life is way too short for this kind of hassle.

Careful, several Xerox printers are merely rebadged Samsungs, like the piece of crap that is the Xerox Phaser 6100N that I have to deal with at work... :(

That is true for many HP models as well. Just like James Fallows' recent Atlantic article mentioned three "competing" laptop brands coming off a single assembly line in China. Xerox 6120/N is Postscript 3, yay for standards.
