Fast, affordable, high quality printer

Strengths: Screen allows you to configure just about anything. Duplex is a biggie, also allows to to print in booklet form. extra 50 sheet tray is very handy. lots of connectivity, fast with wireless.
Weaknesses: Wish it had another paper tray. Screen smaller than I thought, but serves its purpose. Wish the toner could come out without removing the entire assembly. Duplex runs at about 15ppm.
Really nice printer. IF you do the calculations for prints per page, its really an cheap printer to maintain. The printouts are great even with toner save. THe printer is fast as promised and the 32mb means you can run it on a big network. Its cool how brother has an additional 50 sheet tray that lets you put envelopes, cards, etc... just wish the tray would hold paper when closed, but it doesn't. You get about 6 buttons including up, down, left, and right arrows, print cancel, print pause, and a reprint function that lets you reprint the last printout. I bought this printer mainly for the duplex feature but I was a little dissapointed in the duplex speeds. Brother told me I would get the same speeds, but that is a lie. You get about 15-16ppm.. trust me!, I timed it. If you think about it, this printer is a very low price considering the features. This can easily stand up to HP's costing almost twice the price. Remember this! When you buy an HP printer, you are buying mainly the name. Yes... They've made a name for themselves. But know that brother has very products which can stand up to HP's anyday. Anyways, I just want to sum up saying that it is a nice printer. I had a hard time choosing this or the Brother "DN' with the two trays, but I chose this since the wireless and lcd screen might come in handy. Good luck and happy shopping.
