    HL 2040

    By MAGGIE B  Jun 9, 2005 | 6 out of 7 found this Brother HL-2040 review helpful

    Pros: THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE AND THE NAME IS GOOD

    Cons: YOU CAN NOT PRINT NO MORE THAN FIVE TO SIX PAGES AT A TIME BEFORE HAVING A PROBLEM.

    THIS PRINTER IS AN IMPROVMENT OVER THE HL 1440 IN SIZE,BUT THIS PRINTER DO HAVE A FUSE PROBLEM AND THE COMPANY HAVE YET TO ADMIT IT. RIGHT NOW I HAVE TO SHUT OFF THE PRINTER IN ORDER TO CONTINUE PRINTING. THE LED LIGHTS STAYS ON CONSTANTLY AND YOU HA...VE TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO COME ON THE PHONE TO TELL YOU TO UNPLUG THE MACHINE OR DISCONECT THE PRINTER FROM THE COMPUTER. THEN IF THAT DON'T WORK THEY WILL SEND YOU ANOTHER PRINTER. NOW THE NEW PRINTER IS DOING THE SAME THING. TAKE MY ADVICE TRY ANOTHER BROTHER INSTEAD OF THE HL 2040, THIS IS A ROTTEN PRINTER.

    Brother HL 2040

    By Esther  Jul 1, 2007 | 3 out of 3 found this Brother HL-2040 review helpful

    Pros: affordable

    Cons: none found

    I paid a high dollar for this printer $179 as I ordered it from a printer shop and not on line. I used the custom load feature so I can use any paper. It is set on "plain" and I am using up my ink jet paper. I have never had any trouble and... have printed 40 pages or more at a time. It pauses after a few. After 15,000 pages you will need a new drum, costly but not as costly as my ink jet drying up when I went on trips and my room is hot. It has an ink saving feature. I have had this printer three months and am happy with it. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Brother HL-2040

    Brother HL-2040

    With its low price tag, the Brother HL-2040 makes a good personal laser for anyone with low-volume, everyday printing needs.The $150 (as of 2/2/06) Brother HL-2040 laser printer would fit comfortably in an office that's tight on space and on budget. Its footprint is slightly larger than that of similarly priced models, but it looks more like a scaled-down professional laser printer than a souped-up personal printer. For instance, a proper paper drawer built into the base of the printer can hold up to 250 sheets of paper. Read more

    Brother HL-2040

    The Brother HL-2040 makes a fine first laser printer. To serve a small workgroup, seek its sibling, the HL-2070N. Read more
