4.0 out of 5 stars What HP used to be, November 14, 2009

I've been using HP stuff since the first scientific calculator, the HP-32, that came out in 1973. It used to be rock solid, designed by engineers to be used by engineers. Sadly, it's now cheap junk. The scanners in HP's all-in-one's seemed designed to fail in the thirteenth month after purchase.

Some of HP's recent printers do not even implement their own Printer Control Language properly (HP PCL).

This Brother printer works. It implements PCL5 correctly, as well as its emulation of PostScript. I've networked computers for fifteen years, so setup went very easily. The hardest part was hauling the CD-ROM to the various computers on the network, since Windows did not have the driver built in. A no-brainer.

The supplies work out to 1.4 cents a page (toner and drum). Hard to beat that.

I'm an IT Administrator.
Between this printer (HL-5370) and its VERY similar predecessor (HL-5250), our company has about 25 printers. We've had very few mechanical problems in the last few years. If you download the printer driver from their web site [...] then you can get a very small driver that installs NOTHING else, just the basic driver - No bloatware.


For normal/casual users, the printer and driver are very easy to setup.


However, TechnoGeeks like me, can also mange the printers through a web/HTML interface and BROTHER's BRAdmin software with which you can set the printers to send you email alerts for various events like "Drum Near end of LIfe" or "Low Toner"


These printers official life span span is 100,000 pages. After that, the fuser has to be replaced at a cost of 60%-80% of the price of a new printer. You can however continue using the printer beyond the 100,000 page mark. The printer in my office, has already passed the 100,000 mark and is working fine.

BROTHER's Tech. Support is abysmal, so it's a good thing these printers are more reliable than most.

This printer is a bargain for the price. Print speed is OK, a little slow to warm up. Print quality is excellent. The duplex feature and ability to hold a full reem of paper is nice. Set up for a network printer was difficult. Tried the wireless set up and it was impossible. To be fair, it may be that our wireless SSID is not broadcast as a security measure. Gave up trying to network the printer through a wireless connection and went to a wired connection. It took some doing but I finally got it to show up on the network. Network connection instructions were poor at best. This is a noisy printer.
