I just purchased a Samsung ML-1710 and the text output is blurry, as
if there is too much ink. Every review i've read says that the output
of this printer is sharp. did i just get a bad one?

By playing with some of the driver settings, i got it to be a bit
better...
eg. telling it that i was printing transparencies.

do i need to send this back? is this just because the toner is new?

Sounds defective to me. Did you print a self-test page by holding down the
button for about 5 seconds? How does this look compared to what you're
getting now. I would probably go ahead an exchange the unit for another
one.
 
I had problems with this printer too and to cut a long story short
problem was solved when I use the usb cable that came with the
printer. I was using a longer cable that I found was geared to USB 2.
This also solved the envelopes printing light. In words
