Brother HL-5250DN Network Ready Laser Printer with Duplex Reviews

At one point, all the LED indicators went on at the same, for no reason. After several cycles of powering up and down, the issue seemed fix, and the printer worked again for a few months. I've owned this printer for only 13 months, and now it looks I'm gonna have to buy another one.

Mine worked really well for a few months, and then it started having issues. As one reviewer mentioned, don't be fooled by the positive reviews of new owners of this printer. Piece of junk, don't waste your money. The the paper light went on when there was no paper jam, and there was paper in the tray, nothing I did would fix the issue.

The only help from the manual was power it down and backup and hope for the best. Now the paper light is off, but the printer won't even print at all, no flashing LEDS, nothing. The status light won't even stay on for more than 10 seconds after I hit the "Go" button.

 

Most of these reviews are written by new owners. I HIGHLY regret buying it. After 300pp, however, the toner light came on, will not go off, and it will not print.

I loooooved this printer at the beginning, too. But I think this is a pile of junk. I went online and found HUNDREDS of owners bewailing the same fate.

I tried all the recommended fixes, including buying yet ANOTHER new cartridge. Tomorrow I take it into the repair shop. I called Tech Support at Brother and they were unhelpful, unsympathetic, and rude.

 

We own two of these (one in our home and one in our small office :-) and couldn't be happier with the printers. * Network ready, just plug it into your router.

* Easy software setup.

The Brother 5250DN is a great value for home and small office laser printing. Here are my observations:.

Overall, I highly recommend this printer. * High yield cartridge Brother TN580 High Yield Black Toner Cartridge, good life and value for the money.

* Built in duplexing, allows for automatic double sided printing.

 

1. I experienced some problems with printing on pre-printed paper. Good printer (so far). 2. Depends on the reliability over the years. Duplexing works nice, and I like that the printer can be connected via ethernet. Can't say "I love it" yet because:.

 

I bought it to replace the Brother 5150D which I used for several years and would still be using if I had not tried to print small handbills which damaged the printer. I've used this printer for 1 month and am very satisfied with it so far.
