highly recommended
Great entry level laser printer at a very reasonable price
I just received this
printer
today so I can't comment on long-term reliability, but here are my initial thoughts. The machine itself is compact, neat and quiet with a simple design and clear layout. The build quality is perfectly reasonable for a printer of this price, by which I mean it's certainly not fancy but nor is it terrible. It powers up and prints swiftly and the print quality for black and white text is excellent; very crisp and clear. I haven't tried to print images yet but I'm not really concerned about that, since I bought it primarily to print text documents (a similarly priced photo inkjet would be a much better choice for people who want to print graphics).
Setup was easy and quick. I have a Macbook running OSX (Leopard) and I have put the printer on my
wireless
home
network
, so I can print to it from wherever I'm sitting in my apartment. This is very easy to do if you follow the instructions. The trick, as other reviewers have pointed out, is to use an ethernet network cable (not supplied) to temporarily hook the printer directly to your router the first time you set it up (as it says in step 9 on page 37 of the manual). Thereafter, it's wireless all the way.
Overall, very happy so far.

Happy customer
This is a decent, inexpensive little
printer
. Small and quiet when not in use. Prints beautifully and fast. No complaints.
Quality printer, Wireless is nice, & What a price!
This replaced my 4 year old Samsung M1710
laser
(around $100 then) which served me very well. I read most reviews here, and I must say, they had me scared to death to install it on my
wireless
home
network
.
I'm happy to report that I followed the directions ("Wireless, using cable temporarily") and used the installation CD as instructed. It took all of 6 minutes and could not have been easier! The print quality is excellent, and the small footprint (same as my old Samsung) is a big plus. Utilizing the wireless, I have the
printer
sitting across the room and in a cabinet - sweet!
I paid $89 to Amazon, with free shipping. To replace the drum & toner on my Samsung was going to be $65. Thank you
Brother
, and thank you Amazon. I've recommended to family members (I see it's on sale now at Buy.com through Amazon again), and 2 are ordering today.

Great Price - Even Better Value
The
Brother
HL-
2170w
is a wonderful
printer
. It's very simple to set up, easy to configure and, at 23 pages per minute, covers all my personal printing needs quickly. The only thing this printer is missing would be a digital readout display however A) One is not needed for this printer to function well and B) At this price I wasn't expecting anything too fancy. All in all this printer is an amazing value for the work it is capable of.
Fabulous value
I am keeping this short since other 4 and 5 star reviewers have covered all the good points about this
printer
. I installed (through router) in a few minutes, no problems at all, and no problems since. It is a dandy printer with a small footprint, is quiet, print quality excellent. And the price makes it a fabulous value.
