Top Five Laser Printers for Under $200 - Brother HL-2070N (est. $139)
(Page 5 of 6 )
Brother HL-2070N (est. $139)
The HL-2070N is an excellent choice for a small business in need of a quality and inexpensive laser printer. This printer is relatively basic, but it is speedy and produces good text and graphics at a maximum resolution of 2400 x 600 dpi. One of the greatest assets of this printer is its ability to easily connect to a network of computers. However, it is only intended to be used on smaller networks, not on large company networks.
The 2070N is a very small laser printer at 14.6 x 14.2 x 6.5 inches and weighing in at 14.3 pounds. The tray will hold 250 sheets of paper, and there are not any additional paper trays available for this model.
In recent tests, the 2070N produced text prints at a rate of 16.6 pages per minute and graphics at 9.9 pages per minute. This printer accepts toner cartridges rated for 2,500 pages that cost around $60. Maintenance is required every 12,000 pages with this printer. With all the costs taken into consideration, this laser printer would cost about 3.4 cents per page according to the experts.
Overall text quality is good with this printer, but it isn't quite as good as the other printers in this review. Black colors sometimes look slightly faded, and they are sometimes fuzzy. Text and graphics are still not bad, though.
This monochrome laser printer is a good all-around performer at a price that is hard to beat. In fact, I've seen the price of this printer as low as $100 at some online retail shops.
