5 Stars for Fun & Quality Pics!!!!.......2007-12-25
I bought two of these for x-mas and they are both out of their boxes and running. These printers are a great deal! The setup and instructions could not be easier and the pictures are high quality. No complaints at all. Buy the print pack too so you can just keep on printing and have fun. Fun for all ages from 10 years and up. Even my Mom loves it! If you are using a Cybershot, you will need the card adapter. It accepted the Olympus card without an adapter.
Great photo printer for a good price.......2007-12-22
Wow - I love this little printer! I had always been afraid to print my own at home worrying that the prints wouldn't last, but this epson takes care of that. It is compact, easy to use, and creates beautiful prints. Has lots of nice little features and I love the "paper pack" that includes paper and ink for 100 photos (only comes with a 20 print pack initially). Just a note - the USB cable is not provided, so if you want to use it with your computer remember to buy one or have one on hand.
Great Product. Highly Reccomend........2007-12-19
A friend of mine brought this printer to a "Breakfast with Santa" charity fundraiser. We used it to print off the (65)pictures of the kids with Santa. I was so impressed with the quality of the pictures and the speed of the printer, that I bought two- one for myself and one to give to my babysitter as a Christmas gift. It really is the best printer on the market right now.
Instant Gratification!.......2007-12-18
My daughter has been using this printer for 3 years. Her students love seeing their photos hanging in the classroom. It's so convenient and very cost effective. One quick note: clean your printer heads when you change cartridges! We have "gifted" this product to other family members who are just as satisfied.
Excellent Printer / Awesome Price.......2007-12-08
I ordered this Epson printer for my wife as she has been collecting digital photos of our family for several years and has never found the time to get them printed. We used this printer within 10 minutes of opening in and were thouroughly impressed. The print speed was great and the qualitiy is as good as what you order online or get at a local shop. I highly recommend this printer to anyone looking for quality prints at a reasonable price.

Great Printer!.......2007-12-20
This is my first time getting laser printer. And HP Laserjet 1020 was great choice! I just received it today. Little worried about getting it so cheap. However, it works great. It only took about 5 seconds to print the first page out.
The only thing I had hard time on was to install it. I didn't know the manual guide was in the CD. You'll have to put cd in first to get started.
Otherwise, it's very reliable, comfortable and good!
I love this printer!
not so good.......2007-12-19
I used this printer for a year, it was working fine, and never got paper jam, and working fine with windows XP, and Vista. However margin is not
perfect exact. every time when I print my document out margin is always littel different. I printed out same page 10 times every margin of paper is different. it was very annoying me
My toner was out last week, so I got the other printer --Brother HL-2070N Network Monochrome Laser Printer (Black)-- I think it is better than this one.
it is five dollars cheaper than HP.
and spec is higer than HP.
brother HL-2070N VS HP1020
Print speed: Up to 20 ppm VS 14 ppm A4-size
(I used both printer and brother is faster than HP)150-sheet
input capacity : 250 sheet VS 150-sheet
Memory: 16 MB VS 2 MB
Standard interfaces: Hi-Speed USB 2.0, IEEE-1284 Parallel, 10/100 BaseT Ethernet VS Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port
Hp is little quite than brother. but it is not big deal for me
or You can compare with the other printers
but in my case, the worst thing is the imprecise margin
Incredible for the price.......2007-12-18
At 99 bucks, it costs not much more than the toner cartridge.
It's more than 4 times as fast as the HP 4P I paid 999 bucks for back around circa 1990 or so. The 4P lasted over 15 years. This 1020 is not built likt a tank, whereas the 4P might have been able to withstand a nuclear blast at ground zero.
However, the 1020 is tiny in comparison, and I printed a 34 page document using the manual duplex feature of the printer driver in less than 10 minutes, including the time it took to follow the printer driver's directions in flipping the paper over. I was astonished that such a low priced laser was pushing a new page out every 4 seconds. (All text, by the way, no graphics whatsoever in that document.
When I first set the 1020 up, I was near ready to toss it out in the dumpster as the long print jobs were failing. However, I tried a new USB cable (less than 3 bucks at the grocery store! go figure....) and just finished 3 30+ page documents without a hitch. The new cable is a lot snugger than the old one was and it obviously made a difference.
I'd highly recommend this printer if you have a need to print a lot of b&w documents. The feed reliability seems to be very good, the manual duplex feature works great, and it is scads cheaper than burning up those inkjet cartridges for non-color documents. Plus, the ink doesn't smear! :)
happy with printer.......2007-12-10
The printer arrived quickly and works great.
I am 100% happy with my purchase.
Great printer, but HP refuses to support Vista (or XP 64-bit).......2007-12-07
I love this printer. But it transformed from a great little printer into a useless piece of plastic when I upgraded to Vista (on one machine) and XP 64-bit (on my other machine).
HP's customer support was useless. The worst thing is that they actually have the drivers available on the website, but you have to purchase them for $20 and wait for a CD to arrive. They might be available for download sometime in 2008, but I'm not holding my breath.
C'mon HP, you're dropping the ball. I just recommended that our office manager buy a fancy, big, expensive Lexmark for our new network printer because I was annoyed with your customer support. So this little decision to ask me for $20 for the drivers just cost you about $1000 in a lost sale.

Customer Reviews:
Disappointing.......2007-12-28
I gave up my beloved HP Laserjet 4L when I switched to Vista (that's another story). The good news is this printer is network ready and is fast. Bad news is you have to pay the devil to get it to print envelopes easily and with a lot of curl. Print density could be better.
Connects, prints and sleeps .......2007-12-16
Hook this up the network and print. Just works. I had to add it to Network Magic since I have that running.
Great Printer.......2007-12-16
We've had this printer for about a month now and it is great. It linked to our network easily and you really can't beat the price. Both my husband and I work and take online classes so the printer is used a lot. The only thing my husband has mentioned is that he has to go up to high resolution (uses more toner) to print PDF's or he says they come out a bit fuzzy. I have not noticed any problems and I think the pages are far more crisp and clear than my old inkjet (not to mention a whole lot cheaper). I would advise everyone to get one of these.
Great looking and performing printer for the money.......2007-12-15
This is a great printer for the money. I had an older Brother model before I bought this one and there was nothing wrong with it, I just decided that I liked the looks of this one better since the old one was beige and I wanted my home office to have a more modern look. Plus this print is smaller and more streamlined.
This printer is a bit louder when printing than my old printer but when it goes to sleep, it's totally silent. It reminds me of the motor you hear when you are on an airplane flight and the flaps are coming down. It sounds surprisingly like it! It's not super loud, just slightly louder than my old laser printer.
This laser printer prints out fast and looks good for a good price, what more could you ask for?
Brother has excellent customer service. I've had a few questions from time to time and they have always been very helpful.
works as advertised.......2007-12-11
I've used this printer quite a bit since I received it. It's amazing how inexpensive laser printers have become. I thought I would be trading off something, but so far I haven't noticed anything lacking that I was looking for. Unless you need a wireless printer, there isn't any reason to spend more.
Average customer rating:
- Easy setup for mac
- Great Printer! Great price for a color Laser, too!
- Some weaknesses, but very good value
- So far, so good. No regrets. Recommended.
- Excellent printer worth twice the price

Easy setup for mac.......2007-12-15
I have owned this printer about 2 weeks now and love it. The unpacking directions were fairly easy to follow. I didn't have any problem following the configuration instructions, but they may confuse a less computer literate person because of the myriad of setup options. It took about 5 minutes to setup the print server on my wired network. I have 2 macs that print to it and both found it immediately after installing the driver. It also prints flawlessly via the USB connection. I was not able to get it to associate with my roommate's wireless router (some off name router with hacked firmware via WPA2), but it did print wirelessly via ad-hoc by switching my computer to the printers default SSID (no encryption). I have not had a chance to setup my linksys wireless router to see if it associates with that. The output quality is outstanding for a sub $400 printer; just don't expect the same quality as a $3000+ color laser. The speed is very good and the warmup time is minimal. If I have printed something within the same day, the first page is out 10-15 seconds from the time I hit print. It was hard to find, but the printer margins are 0.17" all around. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this printer to anyone on a limited budget who wants good quality laser printing.
Great Printer! Great price for a color Laser, too!.......2007-12-08
This printer is really nice for a small office. The duplexing unit is awesome, considering I print a lot of books. Having a bit of a problem with the wireless, but probably user error. :) Anyhow, I recommend this little guy for any office environment!
Some weaknesses, but very good value.......2007-12-01
I was looking for a cheap color laser printer with a built-in duplexer. The Brother 4070CDW delivers that, with good text quality. The color quality is a little weak, but overall it still seems like very good value.
First the good:
* Black-and-white text quality is excellent: crisp and clear.
* Setup was very straightforward, with clear and simple instructions.
* It is silent when in sleep mode, and wakes up in around 15 seconds.
Minor weaknesses:
* Colors tend to be somewhat subdued. (For the price and the media, this is what I was expecting.) As is common with color laser printers, it seems fine for printing out webpages or powerpoint but not for any application requiring very bold or very accurate colors.
* Pages tend to get slightly curled.
* Double sided printing is significantly slower than single-sided. The documentation says around 20 sides per minute for single-sided, but only 7 sides per minute double-sided.
Note: I am using one of the manufacturer's recommended paper stocks.
Overall, the 4070CDW more than meets my expectations. For $500 (less now!) I'm very happy with both the functionality and the print quality, especially for text.
So far, so good. No regrets. Recommended........2007-11-21
This was our first purchase of a laser printer. We were spending between $120-$200 every few months on ink for our all-in-one machine by a different company. It was time for a change.
We chose this model of laser printer based on the fair price and the majority of favorable reviews we saw online. The only other experience we've had with a Brother product was with a cheapo traditional fax machine. We were a little wary to stray from HP, our preferred brand. Now, I can't say that we've been disappointed. Actually, we've been pretty delighted with the HL-4070cdw.
My favorite features so far? I love the duplex printing. It takes a little longer, but it saves paper over what I was doing before. I love the built in wireless. Once you set this beast down, you're not going to want to move it somewhere else. But it was nice having some flexibility in choosing where to put it in the first place.
The printer is quick to start up. It's a little noisy while it's going, but it's nice and silent in sleep mode. And when not in duplex it prints quicker and in better quality than our old inkjet did. The network setup process seemed easier than I expected it to be, but I'm probably a more advanced computer user (at least as advanced as a Windows user can be without being a programmer or network admin).
I'd say the unit is suitable for a small or home office. If you have students in your household that do a lot of printing that might justify the purchase, as well.
The only complaint I have so far is that the printed pages can come out a little wavy after running through the machine. Honestly, that's a minor point. We haven't had to replace a toner cartridge yet, but I suspect this will be much cheaper in the long run than it was using our old inkjet printer.
I may not be as effusive with my praise as you might expect for a 5-star review. That's because I have a hard time getting excited or prosaic about a piece of office equipment. Still, we're happy with our Brother HL-4070cdw and we hope to have it for years. Plus, the Amazon price was at least $100 less than what we saw at our local big box retailers, which sweetened the deal. There weren't as many reviews available as I usually like to see before purchasing, so I thought I'd do you a favor and add my own. This really seems like a solid and reliable machine and our household's early impressions are very good.
Excellent printer worth twice the price.......2007-11-12
I have been using this printer for 4 months and have found the quality to be excellent. Its a great value.

BAIT AND SWITCH MF4150 & MAC.......2007-12-25
After several hours of reading, installing, and trial and error, I am unable to connect my MacBook Pro to the Canon MF 4150 via airport. In my opinion, this product should NOT have the MAC compatible symbol on the box if it is not completely compitable. The downloaded drivers give me continuous error messages for both FAX and PRINT. The no recipients message is given every time I try to print. Fax is not even an option at this point. I do not recommend.
I did read the side of the box prior to purchase that the Canon stated that it had limited functionality of only fax and print (this was all I needed). Yet, it still did not work. I'm going back to my Samsung ML2550 printer (worked out of the box) and I'll buy a separate copy machine and fax machine by companies other than Canon.
I will NEVER buy another Canon in my life for any of my businesses.
For Network Scanning You Will Need Axis 1650 Firmware Upgrade.......2007-12-09
I wanted the Canon MF4150 because of its great features and because it appeared the Axis 1650 provided network print\scan support. I have a home network and felt network printing and scanning would be great. Unfortunately, after I purchased the printer I discovered while the Axis 1650 supported network printing, both the Axis and Canon user manuals said there was no network scanning support.
However, I was persistent and today found and translated a Japanese Axis document that stated network support is enabled using firmware V2.10 or higher. I found the firmware binary version 2.12 (1650_212.Bin) downloaded and upgraded the Axis device using the link below, and now network scanning works for our pcs.

Great Machine, Great Price.......2007-11-12
This is an absolutely fabulous machine. It replaced my Brother MFC that finally died after years of use. This is my first MFC with a flatbed included. This feature is so great - now my device doubles as a photo scanner as well as my home office machine. Key features:
1 - Scans with great quality. I scanned some 8x10's and had them printed from an online site at 8x10 and they were as perfect as the original.
2 - Double-Sided printing. This is a great feature which allows you to save lots of paper on printing.
3 - Tough. I have three little kids (5,4,3). They love to copy pictures out of books or copy the pictures they have drawn and pass them out to family members. It has held up to their not so gentle use.
4 - Fast. Prints very fast.
5 - Quiet. When not printing, is absolutely silent, then warms up quickly to print. Printing I guess could be a bit quieter, but this is similar to any other machine I have used.
Overall, this was a great purchase. The only thing I would change is to make it so you can keep the paper door closed. It is actually open with the paper exposed during use...not closed as it shows in the picture unless you keep the paper level low and allow the paper to fold up when shut.
Superb and happy so far..........2007-10-28
I concur with the majority that I have had great success so far. I only rate 4 instead of 5 because a) I have not successfully scanned a doc into a Word.doc yet - and I hope to be able to do that, and b) I have not actually used the duplex function BUT I trust that it works based on other feedback.
re: L Simon's concern with fax and extension phone
I am not sure whether I have this same set up BUT I have never had this problem. My phone attaches to the Printer and the Printer attaches to the wall. I believe this is the correct way to set it up. I have a tri-function RF45 Jack and my computer modem (which I don't use) attaches separately. I have had no problems in this regard.
Good printer but with some irritating limitations.......2007-10-27
This printer is small and prints well, and is quiet. For the price it is probably a very good laser multifunction - and I really like it's ability to do double sided printing, but does have some limitations and quirks that I find irritating:
- No ability to quickly cancel a print job. All my prior printers (several HP laser and ink jet models) had a button to cancel the current print job - useful to stop multi-page printing started in error or if you change your mind. This printer can only do that through a lengthy and complicated process of going through menus on its LCD - no quick cancel button. I was surprised that hitting the "Stop" button didn't do it.
- Fax doesn't really share line with home phone. While it has a setting for this it only works with a phone connected to the printer, not an extension phone on the same line. If you answer a voice call on an extension phone the MF4150 starts an irritating ringing on the line after a few seconds, regardless if it was a voice or fax call. So to avoid this you have to set the machine for manual receive or put on a dedicated line. My last fax was 10 years old and stopped trying to answer a call if you picked up an extension when set to line sharing. I don't think many people will only have one single line phone, connected through this printer, in their whole house or office.
I've also had problems getting the scan software to automatically scan dark enough with one touch scanning (you can change settings if initiating from your computer but not if initiating a one-touch scan from the MF4150). Forms in the single sheet feeder seldom feed straight. Also have had some USB driver problems which I'll admit I haven't tried to track down between the computer or printer, nor have I called support on this.
Overall - not bad for the price but I would have looked further if I'd known about these limitations.

For $39, can't beat it........2007-12-27
I got mine for $39 at Office Depot on Black Friday. "Upgraded" from an old HP Laserjet 4 and this is MUCH faster, although a lot more noisy. Print quality is nice, but a little lighter than the HP4 (maybe I need to adjust settings or something). Overall, VERY happy with it for the price.
Great Product!.......2007-12-25
As always, Amazon delivers - product is all it was said to be. Very satisfied!
Money Saver.......2007-12-22
Had I ppurchased this nstead of an ink jet printer, I would have saved the purchase price years ago in replacement ink cartridges. Its only drawback is the inability to do two sided printing.
Works with linux.......2007-12-22
I got tired of buying ink for inkjet printers. Mostly I just needed to have a black & white printer that works with linux. I use FC-6. I plugged the printer into a USB port and it just worked. I didn't need to use the CDROM that came with it and I didn't need to download any drivers. The prints are high quality and come out fast.
Great Value!.......2007-12-21
I bought this printer a year ago and it has never missed a beat. I needed a laser black & white printer for my bulk printing to save color ink on my inkjet. Setup was really easy too. I also use it on a wireless home network and it works just fine. The lights dim when it starts up but I don't mind. You will be fine with this printer.

Great value for money.......2007-12-19
I wanted a basic B&W laser for my home network. This fits the bill so far and for the $199 I paid it's terrific value.
The documentation could be better with easier to read diagrams and I wish the Vista CD had all the intro videos that are on the XP CD. It installed easily enough when connected to my router without needing to hook it up via a USB cable first.
It has been running beautifully for the month I've had it. The duplex works very well although you need to clear the output tray if you have more than 25 pages or so because of the way the duplexing works. I've had no trouble with dimming due to power draw on startup but I did put it on a separate outlet. The print quality is excellent and it's very fast. It's not designed for photo graphics but most lasers aren't - I'm going to get one of the ink-guzzling ink jets to handle that and use this for the majority of my printing.
Monster machine, in a good way.......2007-12-18
I was looking for a simple + fast B&W printer. It does the job. I had it for 3+weeks and no problems yet.
Good job, Brother.......2007-12-09
I have had this printer for about two weeks. It has very good print quality and speed and seems a bit more sturdy than some I looked at. I have tried the duplexing and it worked well, at least while the printer is still new. I have no idea why an earlier reviewer found that it uses too much power on startup. I have it plugged into my surge protector along with my computer, phone and a light and have had no problems. But the most favorable comment I have is about tech support. I had a question about networking the printer. The directions that came with the printer required some knowledge I did not have. I wrote an email late Sunday night, and expected to wait several days for a response. But when I turned my computer on Monday morning, there it was -- a fast response that perfectly answered my question. It turned out networking was a snap. Also, I dual boot my machine: half windows and half Linux. I am new to Linux and expected trouble. But printer set up was effortless.
Decent network laser.......2007-12-04
Good value for the money. Reliable, easy to configure using the Brother network administration software. Crisp, two sided copies. No complaints. Our small office has 3 of these and (using after market recycled toner cartridges), they are as inexpensive yet functional a network laser printer as is out there.
Terrible quality.......2007-11-05
I purchased a HL-5250DN printer in July of 2006. It is extremely flimsy but it worked fine after installation. However, after only one month the Ethernet connection died. At the advice of Brother I brought it to a local certified service technician for repair in August. I picked it up a few weeks alter after the motherboard had been replaced. After I brought it home all prints showed significant smudging, streaks and ghost images. After significant time spent discussion this problem with Brother and trying to clean it with their service department on the phone, they reluctantly agreed to send me a replacement and take this one back. I received the replacement in October of 06. The prints from this machine were fine. However, it sounded like a broken piece of farm equipment when printing. While it did print it was obvious that any device making this kind of noises will break down. Sure enough, on November 1st this year it stopped working unable to pick up paper and move it through the machine. We did not even use the starter toner cartridge that came with it and the extra unopened cartridge I bought with it will go on eBay.
I can only advice you not to buy Brother. This is the poorest piece of electronics equipment I have ever come across. It is obviously annoying to waste $200 on a printer that lasts only one year. Thinking about the thousands of devices that are made to just survive the warranty period and then turn into mountains of waste is even more depressing. Do yourself and the environment a favor and stay away from this product.
