 Excellent Printer July 1, 2008
This was the easiest printer I have ever set up in my 25 years of using printers. Every printer should work this way. I set it up for a small company to work with both Windows XP and Mac OS X clients - both wired and wireless. It was a breeze. The duplex printing is great. The color printouts are really useful. It is not an ink jet so it is not great at photos (no gradients) but great for presentations and images look good but not smooth like a photo. Would buy again. Highly recommended.
 Very Nice Color Printer June 27, 2008
I can highly recommend this color printer. I have had it a little over a month. It is set up wirelessly. I have four computers in the house (2 PC and 2 MAC's). All are able to print seamlessly. The colors are a bit muted. They are no where near as vibrant as they show on my monitor. However, there are some color correction settings that I'd like to play with on the printer itself in addition to color setting inside the programs like PhotoShop. If I find that these settings help (particularly the ones on the printer) I will post an update.
All in all...if you're looking for a reasonably priced color laser printer that is wireless to boot, you can't go wrong here. Space isn't an issue...since its wireless, you could literally put it in a closet somewhere so long as you have a electrical outlet. If you are a designer or someone who needs precise color matching...this probably isn't the printer for you as you'll more than likely be disappointed.
 Print Quality Versus Supply Cost June 24, 2008

I have been using the Brother HL-4070 for a few months. It is very easy to operate and does duplex well even though it is slow when in the duplex mode. I have been satisfied with the print quality and the speed at which it prints. This is the best printer I have owned for my home office use with one exception. I'll explain that in as much detail as I can.
I rated it two stars because there must be some kind of flaw in the toner cartridges. They are very expensive and to replace the toner cartridges will cost you as much as the printer cost. I wouldn't be upset about that if I got the yield from the cartridges that I am suppose to get. The only thing I can figure out is the toner counts the pages that print no matter how much toner is used. I say this because all the color cartridges run out at the same time. It is not possible that I use the exact same amount of color for each copy I produce since I am printing different items with different color requirements. My color cartridge cost is now around $1,000 since January. This is twice what I spent the entire year previously with the HP printer I replace with this printer.
Overall I am dissatisfied with the performance of the printer since it cost me so much to operate. I am currently contemplating replacing this printer with another HP Color Laser since the operational cost of supply usage will be less.
Good luck to all of you who had glowing things to say about the printer. I too, like the printer but the cost of operation is unmanageable. Therefore, I cannot recommend the printer.
Real surprised. June 10, 2008

After a couple of years of sitting on the fence about an inexpensive color laser, never quite able to pull the trigger because of print quality issues, speed, and general cost of printing (vs. cheap aftermarket ink for my excellent Canon inkjets, which made them quite affordable to use), I saw all the other reviews here, did some other on-line research, and jumped in.
I heard some say it was difficult to set up. I got an IP address set in it with barely looking at the instructions, got the software loaded, set the defaults to the high resolution mode, and got the surprise of my life. Beautiful color pictures spewed out at very high speeds. Printing on plain paper, some of the same hi-res photo images I've printed on photo stock looked quite good. Obviously on plain paper they lost something, and if you looked closely the resolution wasn't quite there compared to my Canons, but this far surpassed anything I expected to see out of a cheap color laser.
Next up were some manufacturers brochures that were tough to print on the inkjet because they were almost full coverage dark ink, which caused curling and other problems on the inkjet with so much ink laid down. It blew through those as well, duplexed, and looked dynamite. Sure the duplexer slows the printer down just like every other duplex laser, but it beats the hell out of reversing it by hand, possibly getting front and backs out of synch, etc. Even with duplexing overall speed was many times faster than the inkjets.
The curling problem others reported was barely noticeable, but then I print everything on 24lb stock, which surely helps.
I've been in networking about twenty years and over that time have known Brother products to be kind of cheap and junky. I heard this was quite a departure for them and have to add my vote praise this printer to the heavens. To get duplexing and wireless in such an inexpensive printer is surprising enough, but that it actually prints high quality and high speed too is just incredible. They definitely raised the bar a few notches. Let's see how it holds up and how the consumables work out.
Great printer June 6, 2008
I got a great deal a few weeks ago when this printer was on sale at Amazon and had free shipping. I did a lot of research, and this printer was at the top of my list to replace my "old" Epson inkjet. I was tired of endless nozzle clog problems and the cost per page of ink.
The Brother HL-4070CDW has been excellent so far. I'm impressed. It's very fast, coming out of sleep mode and printing a page in about 37 seconds. Subsequent pages seem almost instant. I had no problem setting up the wireless security using the LCD, although it's a little tedious. I love the wireless operation and duplex printing.
Print quality is very good on graphics and good on photos. Photos are not quite as good as inkjet on glossy paper, but quite acceptable for home use. I'd say they are about like very high-quality magazine photos. It helps to make sure you pick Fine resolution and Vivid color on the Advanced tab of printing preferences. There is also a color calibration option, which I haven't tried.
