Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer
Pros
Value for cost conscious consumers, solid build, reliability, full toner and drum included.
Cons
Lower paper tray is a little flimsy but should last the life of printer.
Recommended it?
Yes
The Bottom Line:
Perfect for home, office, students, cost conscious consumers, solid build, reliability, full toner, drum included. Solid value for your money. Memory upgradable, to two extra paper trays. Wi-Fi.
YES! IT WAS TIME TO REPLACE TONER AND DRUM?
You know the drill as well as I do – with most laser printers you generally replace the toner and the printer is like new again. However, the day arrives when the drum as reached its life as well and for some of us this is more frequently than others. My day arrived last week, the toner and drum needed replacement and the monitoring report also showed the fuser is reaching its end as well. The Brother HL-5140 Laser Printer has been solid and provided years of reliable solid use. Very low paper jams, excellent print quality and solid construction. And here comes the “BUT!” it is going to cost over $400 to replace the consumables and the fuser.
Obviously that is ridiculous when I can purchase a brand new Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer sporting Wi-Fi, twice the memory 32mb, auto duplexing, 50 page auto manual feeder, full toner 3000 pages, and full drum 25000 pages. I can even upgrade its memory with a 512mb simms and still be a half the cost of buying consumables for my Brother HL-5140 Laser Printer.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
1 Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer
1 Full Toner
1 Full Drum
1 Manual, warranty card
1 CDROM with software and drivers for operating systems Vista and below
1 CDROM with software and drivers for operating systems Windows 7
NOTE: the electronic connector to add a second paper drawer was absent. Brother included a notice of this inside the box with an offer to have it installed for free is you need this option. Due to the earthquake and hurricane in Japan parts inventory are limited and they are supplying this feature to those buying the second paper drawer or requesting the installation of part.
THE Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer
The Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer seems to meet the same quality standards as all my previous Brother Laser Printers. The printer is only a few pounds lighter than the Brother HL-5140 Laser Printer. The lower paper tray is not as solidly constructed as the lower paper tray of the Brother HL-5140 though sturdy enough to last the life of the printer or until the printer needs replacing because consumables cost more than a new printer.
This Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer also aids me in limiting Medusa’s mess of tangled cables. Permitting the ability to place printer anywhere I elect and print securely and wirelessly with the speed and efficiently of direct connection.
DUTY CYCLE AND PAPER HANDLING
Duty cycle of this quality printer is 30,000 pages monthly with an actual recommended use of 500 to 3000 per month.
Printed pages have a slight curl when coverage is limited to one side of the page. The page curling is reduced when using duplex. In any event, the small amount of page curling is not a huge issue and you should not be deterred from purchasing because of it. Once page is folded and placed in envelope the curl flattens out or you can lightly curl the page manually in reverse for any document you want to lay completely flat. When printing multiple pages just permit them to lay face down and the curl should dissipate on its own without any manual interference.
MEMORY UPGRADABLE
Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer sports a large internal memory of 32mb with a single side slot on left-hand side of printer. No tools are necessary to remove cover. The Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer can be upgraded to a maximum 544mb of memory with a 512mb 144 pin dim available online for under $30.
SOUND DECIBELS TO EARS
I was initially a little concern when I read the specifications on Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer that decibels were approximately ten percent more than the Brother HL-5140. I contributed the deference to the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer duplexing unit. However, in the real world under real in-home use – the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer sounds much more quieter over the Brother printer its replacing.
HOW FAST
Printing to first page seems about the same as the HL-5140 printer though I expect this to change once I insert the memory module and bring the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer to its memories full capacity.
MODERN, STYLISH, HI-TECH ATTRACTIVE
Regardless of your room décor the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer is small, hi-tech attractive, stylish and modern. Even if you don’t feel this way when you see it or have the printer in hand; because it is wireless enabled by default you can place the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer in any room of your house provided your wireless signal reaches.
You don’t have wireless around your home you can still use the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer with its varied ports for parallel, serial, USB and Ethernet should you need to go wired.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
This Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer has my recommendation for use in home, office, or for back to school students. It is light weight at 23 pounds, comes with full toner and drum, offers built-in Wi-Fi, sporting legacy ports if needed. The printer is child’s play to setup and use. I purchased mine from Office Depot for $180 with free shipping and handling. A tremendous value for the money and the Brother Hl5370dw High Speed Wireless Mono Laser with Built in Duplex Printer duplexing unit will help you save paper and conserve for our environment.
