Brother HL-L3295CDW Review

 

Excellent print quality ; Competitive toner costs, especially for color prints ; Wide range of connection options, including NFC ; 2.7-inch color touch screen ; Ample-capacity paper output tray ; Expandable with optional paper input tray

Control panel messages can be cryptic

Brother’s HL-L3295CDW is the best color laser printer for budget buyers who print a lot, with top-quality printing, lots of connection options, moderately fast speeds, and super-high-yield toner options.

Brother HL-3045CN

 

The two printers are built around the same LED engine. (LED printers work the same way as lasers, except that they use LEDs rather than a laser to draw the image of each page on a drum before printing.) Having the same engine gives them the same raw...

Fast. Ample paper capacity for a small or micro office or workgroup, plus manual feed tray

Although output quality is good enough for most business use, it's slightly below par across the board

The Brother HL-3045CN color laser offers output quality that's good enough for most business use, but its best points are speed and, to a lesser extent, paper handling.

another fine Brother product for me

 

The Brother line of printers is always my go-to line. The economy of this unit sold me. My HL1440 is still going strong after 9 years and over 50,000 copies, I expect the same from this new 3045. There is only one minor glitch for me. It is necessary...

Great Home Color Printer

 

I purchased this printer because I teach a night class and wanted to give printouts in color to the students. I had another brother laser B/W and this was an upgrade to get color. I'm very happy with the printer... it has great prints and although it's...

Great, except for---

 

good copy quality, first copy a little slow, only downside is very high inrush current when going from sleep mode to printing. This is not at all desirable.

Good Printer

 

I am pleased overall with this printer. Most of our printing is black on white, but it's good to have other options.

I like this printer

 

I went with the laser printer because my previous printer ink cartridges kept drying out. No such problems with this printer.

Good deal

 

It has worked flawlessly for over a year. I like it and would recommend it for any home office. Easy set up, wireless connection, and easy operation.

Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

It's a scam..

 

The printer comes with very little ink and the prices of cartridges are very high. The yellow runs out and now you can't print black and white pages. There's special mechanical dodads on the ink cartridge to try to stop you from reseting the ink levels...
