Samsung Electronics Launches New Line of NFC-Enabled Printers for SMBs

Samsung Electronics Launches New Line of NFC-Enabled Printers for SMBs on Mar 10, 2014 Xpress C1860 and Xpress M2885 series printers deliver high-performance mobile focused printing

Samsung Electronics today introduced a new line-up of NFC-enabled printers at CeBIT 2014, the colour laser printer Xpress C1860 series and the mono-laser printer Xpress M2885 series. These printers are targeted at home offices and small to medium-sized business (SMBs) that require high volume printing and increased compatibility with a broad range of IT devices. Both series are compatible with Samsung Cloud Print , which will be available in the U.S. and Europe this year.

We are proud to have built on our 2013 NFC-enabled printers with these faster and more advanced models designed specifically for SMB customers, said Mark Ash, UK General Manager Print, Samsung. As mobile becomes more central to the everyday working environment, these NFC-enabled printers let SMBs conduct their business seamlessly as well as catering for the growing Bring Your Own Device trend.

Faster Output and Stronger Specifications for the Evolving Office Environment

The Xpress C1860 series comprises the C1810W colour laser printer and Multifunction Printers (MFPs) C1860FW which offer print, copy, scan and fax functionality. The Xpress M2885 series consists of the M2835DW mono laser printer and MFPs M2885FW which also offers print, copy, scan and fax capabilities.

These printers enable easy and convenient mobile printing for SMB users with outstanding print speeds: 28 pages per minute (based on A4 size) from the mono laser printers and 18 pages per minute (based on A4 size) from the colour laser printers.

The Xpress C1860 has a dual CPU (533MHz main processor and 150MHz sub-processor) and a memory size of 256MB (upgradeable to 512MB), while the Xpress M2885 has a 600MHz processor and 128MB memory.

The Xpress M2885/C1860 series produces professional quality output with sharp texts and clean images through Samsung's unique image enhancement technology and Rendering Engine for Clean Page (ReCP). The Xpress C1860 series produces vivid and glossy colours through the use of polymerized toner, which comprises finer and more even particles.

Easy Print Management' Available on Mobile Devices

Samsung has added the Easy Print Management' function for mobile devices, something which used to be only on PCs. Coupled with the NFC function and the Samsung Mobile Print app, SMB customers without an IT department can now easily monitor device information, status and usage of consumables.

To help customers with any support they may need, the Samsung Mobile Print app features a series of video clips that allow users to detect and solve errors on the spot without having to wait for customer support.

More Convenient Mobile Printing

Since the introduction of the world's first NFC-enabled printers in 2013 with the Xpress C410W series, Samsung has continued to provide the most convenient mobile printing experience possible. Both of Samsung's new printer series feature NFC and Wi-Fi Direct technologies that allow users to easily and securely print documents, images and even social media feeds by simply tapping their smartphones on the printer.

Users can also send scanned documents directly from the MFPs to their smartphones without having to send files via email or PC.

The C1860/M2885' series will be introduced in April starting in Europe and the Samsung Mobile Print app can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. More detailed information on Samsung's mobile printing is available on the smart printing microsite:
