I've been seeing that a delaer in our area has been selling these boxes but I don'y have much background except that the same basic unit is sold by Xerox as the PRO412.

Does anyone know if they're even a mediocre box or what?

The Samsung SCX5312F is a good little multi-function machine, we have sold several of them and they seem to be working very well. Great color scanner, 33.6 fax, printer, copier w/ADF.

The only drawback is supply cost seem to be a litte steep for the yields 7.5k for toner and 15k for drum cartridge. Also there is a NIC card available for this unit now.

We have moved a few of them and have had very good luck. We use them for customers that want a cheap multi-functional.

samsung wants to own the low end market and their products are inexpensiveand operate well. the supply costs are a bit steep compared to others, but for soho their products are great.

But how is it getting parts for them?

WE HAVE 6 SCX5312F'S THAT WE HAVE HAD TO TAKE OUT OF THE FIELD B/C OF THE PREMATURE EXPIRATION OF LIFE OF THE DRUM UNIT & EXPENSIVE SUPPLY COST. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN MAKING AN OFFER ON THESE UNITS PLEASE RESPOND. ALL UNITS HAVE VERY LOW METER COUNTS.
