Brother HL-2070N

 

Made for a low-volume workgroup to share, Brother's budget-priced networked printer generates good-quality text pages.

Competitively priced network laser, Good quality text

High maintenance costs

The HL-2070N is a well-built printer for small groups of low-volume users, where the convenience of laser-printed documents outweighs any need for economical printing or perfect quality.

Brother HL-2070N

 

The Brother HL-2070N offers high speed, excellent text quality, and a network connection.

Compact size. Excellent text quality. Network connection. Good performance for the price, particularly for graphics and text.

Photo quality is a weak point, and graphics output is only fair. Output tends to curl.

Brother HL-2000 review

 

Brother HL-2000

Fast text and graphics; low price; small footprint.

Can't expand memory or paper capacity; only fair graphics output.

The Brother HL-2040 makes a fine first laser printer. To serve a small workgroup, seek its sibling, the HL-2070N.

Brother HL-2070N Laser Printer

 

According to a new lawsuit, the Kindle combined with discounted $9.99 e-books so terrified the publishing industry that it joined forces with Apple in a scheme to force Amazon to raise its prices

HL-2070N Personal Laser Printer

 

Bring home the office printer without the nagging boss

Affordable laser printer, fast (up to 20 pages per minute), prints up to 2,400x600 dpi, built-in Ethernet network interface.

Monochrome, no built in wireless support.

Mac with USB and/or Ethernet connections, OS 9.1 or better, OS 10.2.4 or better

Brother HL-2070N

 

Is this the perfect mono laser for the home or small office?

This is a neatly-designed, useful little mono laser printer, which despite its low-profile, takes half a ream of paper at a time and prints on it cleanly and reasonably fast. It's cheap to buy, though not especially cheap to run, but its versatile...

Okay for a while

 

I was very happy when I first got it, but performance took a nose dive and hasn't been able to recover. If it's something where I don't care what the printout looks like, it's a great printer. :/

Cheap - I got it for about half of what it lists for now. Fast

Horrible "ghosting" after a short time, despite cleaning drum, etc. Pretty much unusable now

It Just Works

 

Set this up to print over my home network in minutes with no issues.(2 wireless XP machines and 1 wired Vista machine) So far I couldn't be happier with this product.

Prints fast, set-up over home netwoek was fast and easy. No Bloatware

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Trouble-free.

 

Didn't know what I was doing and I STILL got it set up pretty easily, first talking to my Asus Eee (Xandros) and then to my girl's HP laptop running XP. Plenty quick and crisp. Have the same printer at my office and it holds up very well

Took some fiddling to work with ubuntu 6.06
