Did you look into your cost per page for this printer? Buy your genuine Samsung toner from Amazon, you'll be paying nearly 13 cents per page for toner. Best price I found (cursory search on eBay, you may be able to do better) comes out at six cents a page. That's not horrific, but it's still more than twice the cost per page of your CLP-315.

Print 200 pages a week, and your best toner cost comes out at $624 per year. Looks like NewEgg would cost you $1040. Amazon's toner will set you back $1352. These prices do not include shipping. Makes that $230 initial cost look a little less inviting.
