Not a long term bet

 

Having owned two of these machines both of which broke down within 2 years, outside of the warranty period, I would urge you to buy from a supplier offering an extended warranty.

Awful paper handling

 

Length:: 0:17 Mins I've had two previous laser printers. Fine with expensive paper. Fine for printing one or two sheets at a time. Atrocious with "normal" paper of any volume. Awful curling of paper. I would not recommend this printer. Disappointing. Mark

Brother HL-5240L laser printer

 

We have used many Brother laser printers for work. They are very reliable and this model gets even faster! Highly recommended - especially if they are to be used in a work environment.

An excellent workhorse.

 

An excellent reliable workhorse. Every month it faultlessly printed 3,000 closely printed sheets in a single job lot. Great value for money but keep away from cheap paper and always fan the paper bundle.
