Tis' the season for new electronics and while a laser printer might not exactly be as exciting as a new 50" HDTV, it can still make for an excellent gift... even if that gift is to yourself. Today we are taking a look at Samsung's CLX-2160N, the self-proclaimed world's smallest color laser MFP (multi-function printer). For those unfamiliar with MFP's, they are the all-in-one devices that, in the case of the CLX-2160N, acts as a color laser printer, a scanner, and a copier. Usually fax functionality is thrown in with the mix but in the case of this printer Samsung chose to leave that functionality out of it. Our guess is the reason might have something to do with saving space to enable this MFP to be small enough for the title of world's smallest color MFP. The 'N' in the product title denotes that this product comes network-ready meaning it has a network card that allows it to be plugged directly into a network device (router) and can be used by all computers on that network. At the time of writing this little puppy will set you back a cool $420USD. Is it worth the bucks? Let's find out; first some specs:
