Great mono printer with the ability to print number plates! Various media sizes and types and cheap to refill.
I have two of these printers. The duplex system is good but a bit temperamental. In one of mine it doesn't work which is why I bought the second one. The second unit gives an an occasional crease or jam when on duplex. With 11 sec warm up and 24pages/min [non-duplex mode] its quite fast. Apart from that the printers are ok with a 1200 dpi B&W print capability if you don't want or need colour prints. These printers do quite good prints of B&W photos if you need pictures. They can also be networked. If you are using an inkjet and want something that's cheaper to run there's no contest. Note that the toner and the drum are separate renewables. You'll replace around 4 toner cartridges before the drum needs renewal. Pattern ones are available at approximately the same prices for the toner & the drum, but go for a branded compatible rather than unbranded one. The paper tray holds 500 sheets so if you open a pack of paper it takes the lot. If you service your own printers go for HP as the parts and service manuals are more readily available. If buying second hand ask for the figures giving the total pages printed, drum, separator pads, toner etc. lives. These figures are easy to obtain from a mains powered printer on its own. Filling it with paper or connecting to PC is not necessary as the figures come up on the printer. Get the Manual and drivers[if you need them] from the Brother website. Definitely worth buying!Read full review
I purchased this printer as I was doing more and more mono printing.This is my first laser printer and I am very pleased with it. I like That it switches to standby automaticaly after printing The speed and quality of the prints The duplex printing is very easy to do. Has a good size storage feed Has a very flexible manual paper feed system I do not like Its a touch noisy Its not very happy doing envelopes, sometimes crumples them ............................................................... The manual I downloaded from their web site is excellent
