15 minute setup for wireless. Superfast on the network as it comes out of sleep mode really quick. You'll have to play with the settings to print duplex. Small footprint is really nice. Excellent printing on small/fine print and graphics.

brutally fast printing

wireless setup confusing to casual users

The Brother HL-5470DW monochrome laser is the sort of printer that's most likely to wind up shared, but you might well also have designs on it for personal use. On the one hand, the ample paper handling, reasonably good speed and output quality, and both Ethernet and Wi-Fi support make it a good fit...

Low running cost; Duplexer and 300-sheet capacity; Ethernet and Wi-Fi on board; Quite impressive graphics output

Slightly slower than expected speed; A little large to perch on a desk

We used the older models of printer throughout our our company for years. They used to be very good and reliable but he latest model HL-5470DW is terrible. The fuser unit overheats and the non stick coating comes off causing the paper to grip and this in turns causes a paperjam.

Ceci est le 2e printer du même modèle que j'achète pour la compagnie et nous les adorons. L'impression est très rapide et efficace.

Please be aware that this is a laser printer, and that is the only function. I bought this printer without realizing that it is not a all in one. Overall though, this printer does the job that I need. It prints at a good speed, and so far I have no issues with it.

Easy to set up; and speedy usage

No compliants so far

The WiFi set up is too complex. I'm not a super user, and technology intimidates me, but come on Brother International! Who edited the instruction manual for common sense and understanding? Jeesh!!! Brother technicians came to my rescue.

I am extremely pleased with the HL 5470DW printer. I was able to link it to my wireless router with one touch. It provides clear, sharp copy. I can't begin to say enough good things about it.

The HL-5470dw is a low cost, reliable option designed to help boost productivity in your office.

Print speeds; Print quality; Low initial cost

1-line display; No front side USB

I really love this printer. I bought it to replace a HP Laserjet 4 that I had used since the 90s and thought I wouldn''t be able to find a comparable printer that I also loved but I was wrong because this printer is awesome.

Lightening fast; clear copies

Had to buy USB cable to hook it up as a regular (non-wireless) printer

Always liked Brother laser printers. I'm not sure how much of the issues regarding separate drum unit and toner figure into my usage of laser printing. It can potentially be a problem for heavy duty users.

Efficient; Fast; Sharp Detail

Noisy
