Samsung SCX-6555N Mono Multifunction Printer

The SCX-6555N in an A4 mono multifunction printer/copier capable of meeting the needs of medium and large workgroups. Print speed is 55 pages per minute for US letter, a bit slower for A4 and using the duplex. There is a built in network and hard disk and a clear and informative colour control panel. It can handle double sided documents with duplex capabilities built into both the scanner ADF and the printer.

The SCX-6555NX is similar (identical hardware, except for a larger hard disk). The SCX-6545N is the same hardware but sold at a lower price point - firmware allows the printer to run at just 45 pages per minute. HP do a similar thing with the P4014 and M601 printers - lower price but a speed limit.

The printers are often pictured as at the right with a full configuration of trays. For fuller information on the configurations available see the general SCX-6545 page here.
