Samsung have announces 2 compact World’s Smallest color laser printer.

The CLP-315K, the record-breaker, is 20-percent smaller than its CLP-300 predecessor and yet has “drastically” improved print quality. In numbers, that works out to 2,400 x 600 dpi maximum resolution, 16ppm black prints and 4ppm color prints, with 32MB of internal memory. All that with just 45dB noise output.

The CLX-3175FNK may be bigger, but you do get a color scanner and fax functionality, and according to Samsung it’s still almost 40-percent reduced from its predecessor. Printing specs are basically the same as the CLP-315K; what’s different is that the all-in-one needn’t be hooked up to a computer for all its functionality. Plug in a USB memory stick and you can print documents directly from it, or even scan pages in and save them directly to it; it’s also PictBridge compatible.
