Performance okay, not price

After I was tired all the clutter, it had a few years ago a network printer be (printer Fritz box etc. was not an option). My choice was the Samsung ML-2580N. Directly in researching, I noticed that there are virtually no renowned replicas. So does that mean: original toner or cheap toner with an uncertain outcome.
Meanwhile my third toner is low. As a rule, it was so that I have been watching from half capacity for a replacement. Prices to 65 are just beyond good and evil. Therefore, we have to wait for a suitable opportunity and have a toner in reserve.
Although My previous HP had other drawbacks, but since the situation with good renowned replicas was much better.

Last time I looked the consumption is not so, although the printer stops some willing to data. Now I have the minimum warning for some time. According to the software level is at 3%. I print for so long, until nothing more goes. However, that is not usually that the toner really is completely empty. Problems with an uneven print image I did not.

In 3% of the page counter is at 1,900 pages. Sounds first not well received. Almost 25% less than indicated. However, I must say that the printer is one of only printed pages. Ie: four pages are printed as a tile on a counted as a page. Because I print quite a lot of presentations as a 2 or 4 Tile, the cover is also markedly higher with toner.
The proportion of '' standard letters '' is lower.

So therefore, I prefer it comes to toner consumption rather a positive result as a negative. However, the price for the original toner is quite high, even if one makes even a bargain. Under 54 I have found nothing yet. Therefore, the next toner is replenished from Edding. We'll see.

But one thing is: other manufacturers offer a completely different price-performance ratio. We have in the family a multi laser Brother. Since almost the toner 500 pages and costs only 40% more.
