Brother HL-2170W Printer Review

It's no secret that I love Brother's products. They work great and really help me keep my life organized.

Last Summer Brother sent me an HL-2170W Printer as a prize for being their 100th twitter follower.

It's a great little printer too!

Here are some of it's main features:

• Built-in wireless (802.11b/g) and wired (Ethernet) network interfaces. Perfect for family or home office print sharing, the HL-2170W provides flexible connectivity with USB, wireless and wired network interfaces. A built-in wireless interface enables users to get rid of messy cables and to place the printer in the most convenient location in their environment.
• Fast print speed. With a print speed of up to 23ppm, you can quickly produce all of your letters, reports, spreadsheets and other documents.
• Quick processing. 32MB of memory enables the HL-2170W to quickly process your print jobs and handle more complex documents.
• Compact footprint. The HL-2170W easily fits on any shelf, desk or crowded workspace.
• Convenient Paper Handling. A 250-sheet capacity paper tray‡ means you will spend less time refilling the tray, and a manual by-pass slot is available for printing envelopes and letterhead.
• High-quality laser printing. With HQ1200 print resolution (up to 2400 x 600 dpi), your documents will have crisp text and graphics.
• Easy to set up and use. For users with wireless access points that support SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™, or AOSS™,‡ you can automatically configure your wireless settings by simply pressing a button on your router.*

I loved that this printer could print many pages in a short amount of time. I was able to print over 100 flyers for an event like it was nothing. Also, the toner cartridges last a really long time. That made me very happy!

The only thing about the printer I wasn't crazy about was that it only has a black toner cartridge...and I'm a fan of color. 

Of course, not everyone needs color when they're printing...so for an economical printer...this one really fits the bill!

Thank you Brother for your generosity in awarding me with this fabulous printer!
