Have had a Brother HL-2240 mono laser for a short time. I like it. I'm interested in seeing how long the toner lasts. -- "Where there's smoke there's toast!" Anon |

Several years ago, Staples was blowing out HL-2040's for $59. I placed three of them on the desks of various family members that were looking for printers. After 2 years, only one was still working. The other two had consistent paper path jams after feeding the first page. Troubleshooting on various fix-your-printer sites gave various fixes (like removing sticky felt from solenoid actuator, etc) but nothing worked. Replaced them with low end HP units that are still problem free. |

Have had my HL-5250 DN since 2006 when they came out; still working fine; had to use the m$ "generic 5250 series" drivers now because win7 sends some crap codes with one of its updates; used to work fine with postscript setting without spewing blank pages. Believe that paper jams are due to the/some "20#" paper & never had jams with the overkill laser 24#; will be trying the 22# when current papers are used up. Also with the 20# type, it could be over heating claiming a paper jam; found that just opening & closing the back door solves the non-existent jams; did take a while to notice that.... |
