With a monitor diagonal of 19 inches, the resolution is 1280x1024 pixels. Of the interfaces, only D-Sub is present, but it should be noted that this is the most popular connector. Even with a basic and minimal set of functions, one can note the presence of a timer or a choice of an energy consumption profile, when it is possible to halve the energy gluttony of the device. In addition, there is a color filter function, when by pressing one button you can change the color of the image output: the Sephia or B / W filters are interesting - make a photo in black and white whenviewing is pretty funny. There is even a button on which you can hang additional monitor functions. If there is no desire to take up space on the table, then you can fix the device on the wall - standard VESA mounts will contribute to this, and the weight is not much more than 4 kg.

There remains a programmable button on which you can hang certain functions of the device itself. The high level of contrast and brightness will appeal to those who have to work in different light levels. Regardless of the angle of view, the picture will not be distorted - as the manufacturer promises us. The response time is 5 ms, which is a good result, and therefore the blurry picture should not be observed during the game.

The MD230 monitor is not just a device, but a kind of basis for a designer. A special mounting system allows you to form a set of 3 or 6 monitors, while the edges will be quite thin: a little more than 15 mm horizontally and 17 mm vertically. With this in mind, it is possible to assemble one large panel with a resolution of up to 5760x2160 pixels. In this case, each of the monitors can be connected to its own video signal source. For comfortable operation and adjustment of each display, there is a remote control that is connected to the first device. The 23-inch panels can be used separately, but when working together they provide incredible scope and freedom of action, especially when you have to work with large amounts of information. Do not forget that to maintain such a system, you will need the appropriate video cards. If we take a separate device, then we will see the most modern interfaces and enviable technical characteristics. Let's not forget to mention the weight of the maximum assembly of 6 monitors - over 43 kilograms.

LCD manufacturing technologies relate not only to the matrix itself, but also to the backlight. This monitor uses LED backlighting, which allows you to evenly illuminate the entire surface of the matrix, consuming significantly less energy than their competitors. This screen is also famous for the fact that at its minimum value it has a body thickness of 16.5 mm - it looks pretty cool, especially considering that the 23-inch diagonal takes up a lot of space. As always, designers work together with engineers, so the display looks great: a thin transparent leg spreads over the table, turning into a stand and perfectly holds the display. A pair of modern interfaces will allow you to connect any computer or laptop. It should be noted that the matrix of this screen is capable of displaying 100% of sRGB colors - fans of digital photos should appreciate the possibility of a more realistic picture.

If you want something more conservative in terms of design, but not technology, then you should turn to this display. Its leg is made in the form of a standard "diffuse" drop - it looks great and holds it securely. As for the design, the thickness of 19 mm is pleasantly surprising, and the technical characteristics are pleasing. With a diagonal of almost 24 inches, you get Full HD resolution and even backlighting.

Having a printer at home is no longer a luxury or a whim, it is a serious working tool. And sometimes you thank yourself for the fact that you can urgently print several pages at home, and not rush tonearest photo center.
You should not postpone the purchase of a printer until later, especially since you do not need to save a large amount for its purchase. A good choice in this case would be the ML-1660, a classic laser monochrome printer. It will come in very handy if you have to periodically print the text - for study or work.

Initially, laser printers were a purely office attribute. And only with the beginning of mass production, they fell in price and moved to apartments. But this does not mean that the lasers have dropped their positions in the office - not at all, they are more alive than all living things! Economy, unpretentiousness, endurance and speed of work - these are the advantages of a classic office printer. The ML-2580N is an affordable SOHO class laser printer (small office or home office). This model is already much more serious than the ML-1660. It is designed in a traditional office style. By the looks of the ML-2580N, you can't say that this is a hardy office horse. You can choose from both a regular capacity cartridge (1,500 pages) and an increased capacity (as much as 2,500 pages). The printer is designed for a monthly load of 12,000 prints, which is as much as 8 replacements for a standard cartridge! Moreover, the laser operator is not afraid of receiving tasks from 10 users at once - there will be no glitches, freezes or lost pages. "Rate of fire" ML-2580N inspires - 24 pages per minute, that is, each next print will come out in less than 3 seconds,

Finally it happened - color laser printers stopped costing space money, and their price dropped to such values that such a device can be installed at home without harm to the family budget. And believe me, color printers are no worse, and even better than inkjet printers in a number of parameters! What are the advantages of the CLP-320 over monochrome brothers and inkjets? First of all, of course, it is worth mentioning the economy. If the color inkjet cartridges are enough for several hundred prints, then the Samsung cartridge will be able to produce about 1,500 pages - an excellent result, by the way! Moreover, you won't have to wait long for photos - for the first print, the printer will ask you to wait 26 seconds, but all subsequent ones will take off after 16. Print quality is also a serious advantage of a color laser printer. The laser device does not care whether the front photo paper or a regular sheet with a weight of 80 g / m2. In all cases, the image is very clear and juicy. By the way, the CLP-320 toner cartridge uses even smaller and more uniform ink particles than most other toners. And in the end, it should be said that such a solid machine makes only 45 dB of noise during operation - quieter than a refrigerator. Sleeping pussies will not be disturbed.

The printer is not the only actual device for the office or home. In the office, a copier is often needed, because every now and then you have to copy documents. At home, a scanner is often useful. It helps students to scan notes or books, and for everyone else it is a very convenient way to convert old paper photographs into "digital". MFPs come to the aid of workers and households - multifunctional devices that are in one person a printer, a scanner and a copier.
The SCX-3200 is one such MFP. It is a hybrid of monochrome laser printer and scanner with copy function. Due to the fact that the printer in the MFP is monochrome, the price of the device is low. The SCX-3200 is perfect for students and people working from home - for an MFP, the device is very beautiful and compact. Saves Printer and Cartridge - The Eco-Print button allows you to reduce your printer's toner and paper consumption. This happens due to fit on one sheet of paper two pages from the original document, and even printed in the toner save mode. If the SCX-3200 stands not on a separate pedestal, but on someone's desk, then the noise during operation will not bother the person sitting next to it - only 49 dB in print mode, and the scanner is completely silent.

If a monochrome MFP is a device, rather, for the office, then a multi-functional device with color laser printing will have to be more at home. Although in business affairs, a color laser can come in handy - for example, in the process of creating a magazine.
One of the main criteria when choosing a technology, from the point of view of the buyer, of course, is the appearance of the device. And so something, but with the design of the CLX-3185 everything is in order. It is a compact (for MFPs) black device with rounded edges, a nice corner indicator light and a well-positioned control panel.
But the CLX-3185 is not a single good one. Despite combining several devices in one, they did not lose functionality within the MFP. The printed part is inherited from independent Samsung laser systems, and therefore we get a capacious color cartridge for one and a half thousand prints and a considerable performance of four color pages per second.A color MFP is especially useful when copying printed photographs - instead of ordering individual photographs at a photo shop, they can be copied immediately using the CLX-3185. Samsung chips, such as eco-printing (and copying), as well as the AnyWeb Print program and buttons for quickly creating and printing a screenshot, of course, are also present in this MFP, as well as in other printers of the company.
