Resolutions run as high as 2,400 x 600 dpi, thanks to Brother's HQ1200 technology, resulting in accurate and crisp images and text. Speeds of up to 21 ppm deliver documents quickly so that you're free to focus on other tasks. With the 133 MHz Fujitsu SPARClite processor and 16 MB of internal memory (upgradeable to 144 MB), the HL-5140 is able to handle medium to large print jobs. Manual duplexing allows you to print double-sided documents. A 250-sheet standard input tray is accompanied by a single-sheet manual bypass tray and a 150-sheet output tray. An optional 250-sheet tray is also supported. The printer accepts a wide variety of paper types, including plain paper, envelopes, bond, transparencies, labels, and card stock. Supported sizes include letter, legal, executive, A4, A5, A6, and B6. The HL-5140 connects to the host computer via either parallel or USB ports, and an automatic interface switching feature means you won't need to change any printer settings to print from either source. If you want to set up the printer on a network, optional Ethernet and wireless network interfaces are available. The 100/120 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply consumes about 460 watts of power during normal operation, about 75 watts during standby, and only 5 watts during sleep mode. Compatible with PC, Mac, and Linux operating systems, the HL-5140 also comes backed by a one-year limited express exchange warranty. What's in the Box
Printer, drum unit and toner cartridge assembly, quick setup guide, CD-ROM, AC power cord, user's manual; printer cables not included | |

| Great cost-effective personal printer but..... | |
| | Great cost-effective personal printer if you need to use it only lightly. If you need a heavy use machine (i.e., personal office, etc.) this printer is not the way to go. Paper has bad habit of jamming when it prints large batches and what is worse is that, many times, one needs to take the whole machine apart to fix the problem!!!
| | | This is my second HL 5140. I bought the first for my dental office and it worked well. Quality and reliability is good. I've just bought another one for my second office. Very happy with performance. Overall a good value and replacement toner is also reasonable.
| | | I've used Brother products for several years. This is my latest acquisition. I've printed about 3000 pages (just replaced the original toner cartridge). For an economical printer it is nothing short of super. As some of the other reviewers have mentioned, there may be a problem with paper curling. Changing to a better quality paper solved the problem for me.
| | | I previously had a Samsung Laser that was dirt cheap and quite small. A piece on a paper tray broke off and it could not be fixed, so that meant that it would detect that no paper was in the tray!
I purchased this and plugged it in and it worked on the first try. I run a small business and this is what I use. I don't print out a ton of documents, maybe 15-20 sheets a day.
I've never had any driver issues. I've had maybe one or two printer jams and in over a year and a half that's not that bad. They were with some generic labels.
This thing is fast and quite. It's very reliable and nothing really fancy. I was actually very surprised when I heard all the negative reviews on this print!
| | Decent personal black and white laser printer | |
| | Print quality and print speed seem very good for a relatively low-priced black and white laser printer.
My biggest complaint is that this printer sucks a lot of power when initially powering up to print. I have it connected through a surge protector with battery backup, although it is in the "surge protection only" plug of the protector. Every time I print the surge protector thinks the power is going out and briefly kicks into battery backup mode (it makes a beep). Other people in my office experience the same problem with this printer. One person reported noticable dimming of their lights when starting to print.
