Way better than a bubble jet for text printing. Great for students and small businesses, basically anyone printing a lot of text, charts, etc. Being wireless is very convenient as this printer isn't small by any means (you can put it where ever you can fit it), and multiple computers can easily...
Pros:
- Fast
- cheap
- wireless seems to have good range
- works fine so far
Cons:
- Loud

Just what we wanted
It was a challenge for this no-techie family to install. Once we got it -- with help from the manufacturer and a young techie friend, we were pleased with it's performance. Just the right size for our needs.
Pros:
- Efficient
- Fast
- Quiet
- Sharp Detail

Good Quality, Small Footprint, But...
I like the quality and size of this printer. It's perfect for home office use, but I wanted to easily print from my iOS devices. It is possible, but not without jumping through hoops. I don't like jumping through hoops, so I exchanged the printer for a HL-5450DN.
Pros:
- good quality build small footprint inexpensive to maintain
Cons:
- ios support is a kluge at best

Brother HL-2270DW review: Brother HL-2270DW
With improvements to its output speed, the Brother HL-2270DW improves on its legacy model and provides small businesses an efficient output device for high-volume black-and-white prints. The Brother HL-2270DW laser monochrome printer provides a viable alternative to the classic bottomless money pit that has become today's inkjet printer. Modern photo, tricolor, and high-capacity ink cartridges can cost anywhere from $20 to $100 per refill, so multiply that by your volume of prints and try not to balk at the true cost of operation. As an alternative, supplementing a printer setup with an inexpensive black-and-white laser printer can cut costs in home offices that cycle through black ink cartridges with text-only documents. Although it's not without its shortcomings such as poor graphic document output, the Brother HL-2270DW balances out with speedy text printing and simple 802.11 b/g wireless for $149.99.
Pros:
- The Brother HL-2270DW lives up to Brother's reputation for reliable
- easy-to-use
- wireless monochrome laser printers.
Cons:
- The printer struggles to provide visually acceptable graphic documents.
