The HL-4150CDN and its sibling printers represent Brother's first move into the workgroup colour laser printer market, where they're up against major names, such as HP, the market leader. A newcomer has to offer some obvious advantages to cut a niche in this crowded sector.

The Brother HL-4150CDN is a utilitarian colour laser printer that could be idea for a small business.

It's surprising how cheap colour laser printers have become. The new Brother range starts at only ￡260, though this particular model is a little more expensive at ￡445. The Brother HL-4150CDN can be connected through USB or Ethernet, and can serve one to 10 users.

It's been three and a half years since I reviewed the Brother HL-4040CN ($400, 3 stars), Brother's first printer using its own color laser engine. My conclusion then was that it was a reasonable choice for a small office or workgroup, but its paper handling was a little limited.

Reasonably fast with suitable paper handling for a small office or workgroup; Reasonably high quality text

Colors are noticeably off in most photos

It was 299.99 on sale price is good I was happy I was pay shipping but I was pickup a printer, It's over 50Lb Nobody helping me It was worst shopping ever

Worst Shipping

Can''t seem to gid rid of the paper curl. Setttings are at "less curl" and using 24 lb paper. However prints fast and has good quality print.

Fast and has good quality; Set up was easy and fast

Paper curl

The 21kg Brother is no lightweight but, compared to some of the models in this group, it's relatively slimline. Its design is functional, with a two-line LCD screen and a user-friendly control panel.

Excellent security features; crisp letters at small font sizes; pleasing; if lightly specified; laser printer

High colour costs; colour palette too strong; low memory allocation and a 40; 000-page monthly duty cycle means only suitable for light-to-medium use

Great printer, prints colour pages and black pages fast. This printer is able to show fairly fine detail. If using a high quality 100GSM paper then colour pictures can be printed although there can be slight horizontal banding. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

This printer is is really easy to setup and install. The included instruction is easy to follow and simple. Wired network printing is also easy to setup, this requires a router that you have to buy separately. Duplex printing is also great, very easy to use. This feature saves paper.

The Brother MFC-9970CDW would be a good option if you also need copy and scanning. I will need to purchase a MFC with auto document feeder.

Easy to setup; removed from box; installed drivers and printed a test page in 30 minutes

Does not have the standard computer lock; Most devices have this and I was surprised
