Summary: Fast and reasonably priced, it deserves a high rating
Review: *Note: This review is from pcworld.com*
Pros: This printer has almost everything going for it: At $1000 it costs less than most corporate models, and its 16.1-ppm text-printing speed--though not the fastest I've seen--ranks near the top of the heap. I like the way the HL-2460N prints text and narrow lines--both look a bit light overall but were very clean and distinct throughout. The printer has good paper capacity, with a 500-sheet feeder and a sturdy 100-sheet auxiliary tray; and it provides ethernet, USB 1.1, and old-fashioned parallel and serial ports as standard equipment. It has an unusual storage feature, too: When you add a CompactFlash card to its CompactFlash slot, you can store fonts and reprint jobs. I find the HL-2460N easy to use, whether I'm inserting and removing the toner cartridge and imaging drum or navigating menus on the control panel's backlit LCD.Cons: In its standard configuration, the HL-2460N carries only 16MB of RAM, so the printer's buffer is likely to overflow when network traffic builds up. (On the other hand, the printer can use as much as 272MB--much more than even a big department is likely to need.) You can increase the HL-2460N's paper capacity up to 2100 pages by stacking it on top of a maximum of three 500-sheet paper feeders ($329 each), and add a five-bin ($700) or ten-bin ($1300) stacker/mailbox to handle the increased output. Or you can add a duplexer ($400) to encourage people to save paper. A 6GB internal hard disk ($600) can store frequently used print jobs and templates in the printer, as well as run Brother's utility that monitors and bills for printer usage. Verdict: Brother's HL-2460N provides the features, speed, and print quality a workgroup demands from a laser printer, but buyers should plan on bumping up the RAM.

Summary: Low cost , superior quality!
Review: This machine is a work horse. We have purchased two of these for our large office and find these machines to be one of the better deals out there. One big plus is that we can use up all the extra toner cartridges from our old HP 4050's, both machines use the same catridge! Other than that, we are sticking with the brother line because of speed and price. Finally someone is comeing out with bettter machines for less $$. The one year express exchange waranty is makes this a no brainer.
