With its significantly lower cost per page, a Samsung CLP Series color laser printer can
save you up to $15.75 in printing costs each ream. That's almost $160 per 10-ream box.
Test Methodology Summary NSTL, Inc. conducted an independent cost per page analysis that included three high-quality
color laser printer models. The cost per page analysis is a comparison of the indices that could be used to forecast possible
printing costs after the purchase of the printers. Each printer's index is arrived at by summing the individual consumables'
cost per page. The individual consumable cost per page is calculated by dividing the accumulated consumable yield from all

test runs into the total cost of the consumables utilized by those runs. Toner yield output is defined as the total of all printed

sheets, for six cartridges of each color (including black), that did not contain a major permanent print error (e.g. print quality
deemed unacceptable). Drum yield output is defined as the total number of sheets printed, regardless of print quality, while

printing with a specific drum. NSTL concluded that the Samsung CLP-500 offered the lowest cost per page and the lowest
total cost of ownership, and that the "difference in the cost per page could save the end user a significant amount of money

over the life of the printer." All figures noted are from NSTL's independent test.
