great printer

 

If your thinking about a good home printer to print the occational school papers or anything in b&w get this printer.

I've had this more than a year and it has been nothing but good to me. It was a great price at the time and I haven't seen any other b&w printer that i would want than this one. Its fast and has printed everything i've ever needed

The only way they could improve on this is to add a network adapter and make it color

Everything I expected

 

Printouts are perfect, love the automatic duplexer. I have even printed out some of my pictures and they look great (in Black & White) of course. You can't beat this printer for the price.

brother HL Series HL-5150D Personal Up to 21 ppm Monochrome Laser Printer

 

Best printer at a great price for home use. I love the automatic duplex feature. It simply sucks up the printed copy and prints on the back. Only downfall is that it doesn't stack the copies as nice as you might like.

Great Printer!

 

Couldn't be happier with this printer. Warms up fast, spits out pages quick. Easy to setup, no complaints after 2 months!

brother HL Series HL-5150D Personal Up to 21 ppm Monochrome Laser Printer

 

I bought this printer a year ago... it has been fantastic. Duplex is totally the way to go, its very fast, saves tons of paper, and is great to have in college. Never deal with evaporating ink cartridges again!!!

brother HL Series HL-5150D Personal Up to 21 ppm Monochrome Laser Printer

 

Very fast for the price, and duplex printing really works well. The driver is well-designed, and the footprint is reasonably small. A great value for personal or small office use. My only gripe - the input paper tray only holds 250-300 sheets.

Great Value!

 

Had mine about 3 weeks. Had an HL1440. This printer uses the PCL6 language. It really makes the graphics look great (one of my complaints about the HL1440). The duplexer works flawlessly!! Saves paper. Very happy so far!!!
