Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Fast printer. Does what I need.
Cons: There are visible minor creases in the paper when it prints. If I send a job to the printer when it is off then turn it on, the first page usually jams. Best to wait until the printer is on and warmed up before sending a job to it. Maybe this can be remedied by carefully selecting the paper type.

Great Little HL-2140 Brother Laser Printer
Reviewed By: drgold2000 on 11/11/2008
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Price after rebate that ends at end of year Quality of print is great - 600 dpi standard or 1200 dpi if select it Enclosed 250 page paper holder 2X Fast as my old printer -- 23 pp per minute
Cons: Noise from printing, cooling fan and clicks that it makes. Much more noise than my 5 year old Minolta PagePro 1250W laser. Toner Hi Yield is less than with most at only 2500 pages vs 6000 pages & drum less pages
Other Thoughts: Get this baby on sale now with the $20 off from Brother before 2008 ends ... too, a very fast rebate from Brother which was nice. --
Too, the tape trick found on the internet may make this even better on toner ... the printer has a laser system that measures toner and cuts the printer off and makes it unusable when the toner is getting low. So take the cartridge unit out of the printer and place on a newspaper - remove the toner cartridge from the drum - some toner will leak out so wash your hands if necessary. Place masking tape on each round window on each end. This trick may give you 25% more prints or more. --
Too if you get a drum message of it going bad then try resetting it per the instructions on the web in the user's guide. --
I put my Kill-A-Watt meter up to both my old and new printer and both use a lot of energy to print then go to a sleep mode. --
Kilowatt meter as measured 11-10-08: Brother 2140: Nothing happening: 3 watts Fan on : 4 watts 450-925 W

Pros: Does what I need for small home office. Quiet, relatively fast, and decent print quality. Prints standard paper sizes and envelope printing without a problem
Even though it's USB only, I shared it via my Home Server and it became a network printer.
Cons: It crumps up when the print area is beyond the print margins. At that point, you need to clear all print jobs from printer.
Other Thoughts: Good for small home offices and as a personal printer.

Solid Printer
Reviewed By: GoHeels! on 2/2/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: This printer is fast and reliable. No paper jams yet. It is also relatively small and about 20% of the cost per page as compared to my Epson inkjet. Perfect for a home office or student. Comes with decent starter toner kit.
Cons: No USB cable. Loud startup noise when turned on. May not be the cheapest printer per sheet.
Other Thoughts: I am a grad student and was getting eye strain from reading articles on my 13" laptop screen. It was too expensive to print all the articles I needed for research and class at campus or on my Epson inkjet printer. With this printer I can print off literally hundreds of pages per week and not worry (as much) about the costs. This is a nice printer for any person that only needs black and white printing and much cheaper than ink based printers.

Brother HL-2140
Reviewed By: mic on 1/30/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Price, when i bough it it was on a Shell Shocker sale for less than half of the current price, with free shipping.
Simplicity, and ease of use, it just works. This little printer does it's job, and is a good value even at the full price.
Have yet to run out of the starter toner cartridge, great economy. Working as a network printer through XP home.
Cons: No USB cable, but what PC geek doesn't have 5 or so of them laying around, or heck go to goodwill and get one for a buck.
one thing though, it does go into sleep mode and won't print from the network until you manually wake it up.
Other Thoughts: It works get one, save a ton of money by NOT buying replacement ink for your inkjet.
