Colored laser printers were formerly prohibitively expensive for SOHO (Small Office Home Office), however the Brother HL-3045CN Colour Laser Printer is an economical solution in this category. For network printing, it must be placed near a live Ethernet port. If Brother had incorporated WiFi functionality, it would have been more convenient and beneficial. If the printer is within wireless range, this allows it to be placed or even hidden. We tested it by connecting it via Ethernet to our home Airport Express. The machine’s controls are simple and clear. Attaching the four colored printer cartridges is simple thanks to the printer’s many diagrams and informative images. Finding the printer on the network with our Macs was simple; we simply added the printer and OS X downloaded and installed the necessary software. On Windows 7, the installation was far from automatic; we had to go to Brother’s website, download and install the drivers, reboot, and we were good to go. The Brother HL-3045CN is one of the few networked printers that has a Linux option, demonstrating that Brother has studied a wide range of potential use case situations. The printer’s controls are simple and straightforward in terms of user experience. With this less is more approach, practically anyone can figure it out in a matter of minutes. We were impressed by the device’s crisp color quality once it was set up. Although not suitable for photographs or high-resolution graphics, it is excellent for general and business applications. With printing rates of up to 19 ppm in both color and monochrome, and resolutions of up to 600 x 2400 dpi, this is great for swiftly and affordably publishing high-impact color brochures, presentations, and other vital business documents. Households with children who print a lot of workbooks, puzzles, or projects will find this printer enough. We printed several maps and directions and were amazed by their detail and clarity. We thought the 250-sheet paper capacity was generous, and we only had to resupply paper once during our testing period. The Brother HL-3045CN Color Laser printer is an excellent replacement for an older networked monochrome Laser printer that is already linked to an Ethernet port. Buyers seeking greater freedom and built-in WiFi will have to go elsewhere or devise a workaround using remote routers.
