I have used a Brother in my home based business and when it needed extensive repairs I bought this one because it works great and the price is wonderful! The old one didn't owe me anything when it died and I expect this one to perform even better.Get more detail about Brother HL-5340D High Speed Laser Printer with Duplex.


The Printer documentation was very good; everything was included except the cables. The printer works great except when trying to print multiple pages on pre-punched paper in duplex mode. The first page or 2 worked OK but then the paper would become misaligned for the second side of the page. The fix is to not use pre-punched paper. On regular 20 lb paper it works for 100 pages in duplex mode.
However, we're happy with our new printer! Norm and Diane

I have about a thousand pages through this machine now and it has done well. If you need a simple black and white printer that automatically printson both sides of the paper it is a great deal. Prints very fast on single sided and reasonably fast still on double sided printing. Sharpness is good and documents look nice. Software interface is simple to use but offers a lot of features. No intrusive software like HP which is a real pleasure. This is the second Brother printer I have in my office and I like them both.Get more detail about Brother HL-5340D High Speed Laser Printer with Duplex.


I have had other Brother laser printers, always finding them an excellent buy. The HD-5340D continues this trend with high speed printing, duplexing and excellent black/white graphics capabilities for high volume home or small business use. When these printers are available at special pricing, the 'bang-for-the-buck' is very high. You might be able to find higher quality printing or faster speeds, but for general production work this printer is a work horse and will be very hard to beat. You will not go wrong with the HD-5340D.Get more detail about Brother HL-5340D High Speed Laser Printer with Duplex.

A great feature about this printer is that it takes normal 144-pin laptop memory up to an extra 512MB. I upgraded mine with an extra 128MB card I had lying around. This printer is very fast and gives high quality output. I use duplex (automated double sided printing) all the time and it works great.

This is one of the best B&W laser printers out there for a small to medium sized businesses or home offices. You can't go wrong.

PS. I didn't even bother with buying the network capable version, I am using printer sharing with Windows and it works flawlessly in my workgroup (as if the printer was directly connected to all the computers!).Get more detail about Brother HL-5340D High Speed Laser Printer with Duplex.


Pros: Fast and easy installation; very speedy printing; print quality very good for text; high capacity toner cartridges available (compatible cartridges are reasonably priced).

Cons: Although Brother added a "straight through paper path" apparently for the purpose of dealing with criticisms of a previous model that envelopes and thicker media were crinkled or somewhat rolled, the straight through paper path does not solve the envelope problem. The crinkling of envelopes occurs because the intake feed roller presses the envelope too tightly, causing the envelope to billow as it passes, and the latter part of the envelope is unavoidably crinkled.

Conclusion: This is a great value for a user who does not need to print uncrinkled envelopes with this printer. This printer remains useful to me because I have another printer that handles envelopes well.Get more detail about Brother HL-5340D High Speed Laser Printer with Duplex.
