Samsung’s Laser Printer Workhorse

For businesses and consumers who that need a printer to pump out page after page reliably, instead of a raft of extraneous features, Samsung has a new printer that may fit the bill. The company announced its ML-3471ND on Wednesday, a monochrome laser printer designed to be a high-speed low-maintenance workhorse.

Equipped with a 400 Mhz processor and 64MB memory, the printer can push out 35 pages per minute, and delivers the first page in any job in under nine seconds. If saving paper is an issue, it can be set to full duplex mode – printing on two sides of a sheet – with the touch of one button. Toner can also be saved with the press of a button, with an economy mode that should cut back toner use by 40 percent.

Maintenance should be a non-issue: the ML-3471ND can print up to 10,000 pages on one cartridge, and its maximum monthly duty cycle is 50,000 pages. Paper capacity can also be upgraded with a second cassette that holds another 250 pages.

The ML-3471ND is available now through Samsung retailers for $549.99.

A smart refrigerator is arguably one of the best ways to upgrade your kitchen. Along with looking more luxurious than your traditional fridges, smart refrigerators pack in heaps of connectivity and cool features -- many even come with built-in displays that let you stream music, access videos, or check a new recipe.

There are plenty of great options when it comes to smart refrigerators, and sifting through all the models can be time-consuming. Along with finding one that fits your kitchen dimensions, it's important to pay attention to reliability, connectivity, and (of course) how well it works as a standard fridge. Many also include water supply line connections and ice makers. That means there are a lot of variables to consider, which makes shopping for a smart fridge more of a hassle than you'd expect.

Samsung first revealed Ballie -- its rolling smart home hub -- at CES 2020. Now, at CES 2024, the adorable robot is making a triumphant return, this time sporting a new built-in projector. Samsung didn't have a physical Ballie roving around at CES, but the team showed off a home bot demonstration video, revealing how the robot has evolved over the years.

If you're unfamiliar with Ballie, think of it as a roving smart home hub, capable of taking orders from you and syncing with the rest of your smart home. Along with dishing out commands to your connected gadgets, it can serve as a patrolling security guard, giving you a live stream of your home while at work or on vacation.
