Editorial note

The Samsung ProXpress M3820ND is a laser printer that stands out for its printing speed of 38 pages per minute and a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 DPI, thus offering optimal performance for demanding work environments. Its automatic duplex printing feature helps reduce printing costs and minimize environmental impact, making this device particularly suitable for users concerned with efficiency.

Additionally, the printer does not have Wi-Fi connectivity, which may be a hindrance for users wishing to print wirelessly from their mobile devices. Furthermore, while the 300-sheet input capacity is reasonable, the 151-sheet output tray may require frequent interventions during high-volume printing. The weight of the device, around 10 kg, may also pose mobility issues. In terms of scoring, the user experience is rated satisfactory with a score of 80, while performance is evaluated at 85, highlighting its speed and print quality. The value for money is favorable (78), especially due to its economical features, but the design receives a score of 75, due to its weight. The features, although numerous, score 70 due to the lack of color printing and Wi-Fi. Durability and ease of use are rated at 80 and 77 respectively, while the noise level in print mode is considered a bit high with a score of 65, which can be a disadvantage in shared spaces. Overall, the Samsung ProXpress M3820ND is a solid option for professionals looking for a fast and efficient printer, but some users may find its lack of color and connectivity limiting.
