This Brother printer is in very good condition. It will be ideal for use at home or in the office.

Our family purchased the printer about five years ago, for use in the home. It has had only very light use in that time - mainly for printing bills; work documents and our kids' student projects. With our children now living away from home, we no longer need the features and capacity it offers.

Each of the four colours in the set of toner cartridges has been replaced about four times. They are currently all low or empty. So we will be selling the printer WITHOUT toner cartridges. You can purchase these separately from Brother.

The machine has been well looked after and shows only very light surface wear.

FEATURES

The HL-4040CN fits in as a high-end personal or medium-level workgroup colour laser printer, with a couple of useful extras.

A blue panel folds down from the front of the machine to provide a 50-sheet multi-purpose tray and below this is a 250-sheet main paper feed.

You can automatically reprint the last job that was sent to the machine, which is a big timesaver, particularly if the printer is used in an office. Security is maintained because you can send any job with a password, which is required for a reprint from the printer.

Direct Print combines with the USB socket on the front of the HL-4040CN to provide prints from a USB drive or a PictBridge camera.

For a colour laser printer, the HL-4040CN is particularly easy to set up. Pull down the front cover, slide out the tray holding the four toner cartridges and each of them drops into position, but like putting files in a filing cabinet.

A digital pdf user manual is available.
