Brother HL 4070CDW
The Brother HL-4070CDW is another good, solid printer from the Brother range. This is also aimed squarely at the small or home office market, and delivers on all its promises.
This is a color laser printer that can output up to 20 pages per minute monochrome or color. Print quality is good in the default 600dpi resolution. Monochrome blacks and grays are clear and well formed. No bleed or jagged edges on large text or images. Color was much the same, with accurate reproduction and smooth clean lines throughout.
Paper is fed into a drawer on the front which can hold up to 250 pages. Toner cartridges are also fed from the front, and a convenient release button allows quick access. The black cartridge will print up to 5000 standard pages, with the color ones reaching 4000.
The LCD screen and controls are simple and easy to use. The screen changes color depending on the status of the machine, which is a good touch. It stays green when it’s ready to print, red when there is an error or problem, and orange when settings are being configured. The controls are a square directional affair with a Go and Cancel buttons to complement.
Setup is easy, with four connection options to choose from. Standard USB, parallel, Ethernet and WiFi. Configuration and driver installation is just as easy, with the software package installing in just over a minute. Wireless setup is probably the most straightforward you can get. You can either use the SecureEasySetup program or connect via Ethernet and configure it. The first method worked well and detected the network straight away.
Another useful feature is the USB port at the front, which enables you to print straight from a USB drive or digital camera. This saves a bit of time, not having to load them data onto a computer then print. The LCD screen allows you to choose the files you want to print and then prints them directly from the device.
The reasonable cost of the printer, added to the availability of consumables from places like Quikshiptoner.com make the HL-4070CDW a solid contender for the home or small business market. While a bit light on features, the reproduction is of good enough quality to satisfy most business needs. With fast printing and good quality results, this is a great purchase.
