Samsung CLP-610ND, CLP-660N and CLP-660ND Colour laser printers

These colour laser printers deliver A4 pages at 20 or 24 pages per minute in colour. The speed is based on a set of integrated toner-drum inline cartridges. There are three models in the series with features as follows:

CLP-610ND - 20ppm, Network, 360MHz processor, SPLC language.

CLP-610ND - 20ppm, Network, Duplex, 360MHz processor, SPLC language.

CLP-660N - 24ppm, Network, 533MHz processor, PLC, PostScript-3.

CLP-660ND - 24ppm, Network, Duplex, 533MHz processor, PLC, PostScript-3.

The service manual suggests there was a CLP-660 base model with no network port.

There are some other differences between the CLP-610 and CLP-660. CLP-610 is said to have no memory expansion slot. It doesn't support PCL and Postscript print languages and fonts and is sometimes said to be a GDI printer, there is a driver in Linux CUPS. (Brochure and service manual differ on a few points.) The formatter board obviously differs between models and so do the fusers and a couple of related parts.

First page out is faster on the CLP-660 as well, 14 seconds as against 20 seconds on the CLP-610

Ethernet Networking is provided as standard. A second tray is an option on all models. The CLP660N can be retrofitted with a duplex unit if required.

Samsung also made a series of multifunction printers based on the same chassis, the CLX-6200ND, CLX-6200FX, CLX-6210FX are 20 ppm based on the CLP-610 engine and the CLX-6240FX is based on the 24ppm CLP-660 engine.

Samsung explicitly pitched the:

  • CLP-610 printers against the HP CLJ 2605, and OKI 3400N

and the

  • CLP-660 printers against the CLJ 3600n, Lexmark C524N, Oki 5500N and KM 5430DL

Control:

LCD Display and menu buttons. One green/red LED for status.

Samsung SWS (SynchThru Web Service ) Embedded Web service.

Duty Cucle:

CLP-610, 65,000 pages per month

CLP-660, 80,000 pages per month

The service manual makes no distinction and says 100,000 papes per month. However this is a meaningless distinction since it also suggests a total product life of 200,000 image or 5 years whichever comes first .

CLP-610ND - 21ppm in mono and colour, First page out in 20 seconds

CLP-660ND - 25ppm in mono and colour, First page out in 14 seconds

2400 x 600dpi effective output on all models (600 dpi native engine ?)
