I looked into several printers under $1000 before deciding on the Brother 1870N. This is a solid, quality printer. The instructions for set up are very thorough and easy to understand. I was able to set up the printer over a network within minutes after unpacking it. Both the manual tray and cassette tray worked flawlessly. The text and graphics are crisp and the built-in automatic duplex option performed beautifully. This feature is available in other brands, but you will pay a lot more! I am using this printer with a Macintosh Computer (Jaguar) and will highly recommend it to anyone interested in a new laser printer. You will pay at least $300 more on the Hewlett Packard side for the same features. This is certainly a best choice for either home office or power office printing.

This is a fabulous printer. I purchased it back in October, and I waited until I put some use on it before adding a comment. It is reliable, quiet, and sturdy, with a reasonable footprint for a laserprinter, smaller and less expensive than the HP 2200's. It has handled home office tasks reliably. The duplex feature works well and I love how it powers down and jumps back to service when it is called upon. We are using it with a family of Macintosh computers over a home wireless to router to cable network, and happily printing from all reaches of the house. Compared with less expensive hp's such as the 1200 series, this printer is worth the extra money for a real networked printer with no dangling trays or clipped-on ethernet connectors. It is a great choice.
