The Bottom Line	Samsung's affordable ML-1740 home-office laser printer is cheap enough for an impulse buy but too limited for serious office work.	The affordable HP LaserJet 1012 delivers good print quality and speed, but it's best suited for short reports and graphs.	The Samsung ML-2010 markedly improves on its predecessor but remains a personal laser rather than a serious business printer.	The Samsung is a simple, compact laser printer that offers high-speed, good-quality text printing. It's ideal for personal and home-office use.
