[QUOTE="Robert11, post: 107505, member: 607"] Hello, I'm looking for a B&W home printer with minimual usage. Just some text, now and then. I also have to add a USB Hub so that I can have a free USB port from my 3 year old Dell. The Dell didn't come with many ports, and they are used up. Not too thrilled about adding an internal card, hence I would probably go with an external USB Hub. My quite old Canon BJC-4400 has given up the ghost. It runs via a LPT Parallel Cable/Port, which I guess is pretty much really old fashioned these days. Anyway, I found a Brother HL-2040 on the web that looks very interesting to me. [Compact, Personal Laser Printer. Estimated Street Price: $119.99* ] Also has a Parallel Port (as well as a USB), so my problem of not having a spare USB port, I guess, would be solved. Question: Know nothing about Brother. Have they proved as reliable, etc. as HP ? Any caveats or gotchas do you think if I go with this unit rather than an HP one for home use ? Also looks like the toner cartridge/sheet cost is a much better deal. And, the footprint seems pretty reasonable. (don't have too much desk space). Any thoughts or opinions on would be most appreciated. Thanks, Bob [/QUOTE]
