  • Low price, excellent text quality; excellent setup and documentation
  • Confusing control panel, heavy weight, not expandable The Final Word The HL-4040CN is designed to be, and is priced as, a low-end machine. Its only option is a networking add-on.

  • Abstract:  Pages are cheap to print with this neat machine, but they look a bit cheap too. Well built and cheap to run, but the Brother disappoints with the quality of its colour output. Sitting squat next to the taller Xerox, HP, Epson and Dell, the Brother ...
