Starting At Under $150.00New HL-2040 and Network-Ready HL-2070N Set the Pace for Compact, Affordable,
No Compromise Stand-Alone and Network Printers Brother International Corporation
Today introduces its newest personal laser printers, the ultra-compact HL-2040
and HL-2070N. The HL-2040 ($149.99 estimated street price) is the successor to
the award-winning HL-1440 personal laser printer, with even faster print speeds
and a space-saving design almost 40% smaller than its predecessor. The HL-2070N
($229.99 estimated street price) features the same small footprint and print
speeds and adds a built-in Ethernet print server for sharing on home and home
office wired or wireless networks. The new models will be available starting in
January 2005.The sleek new HL-2040 and HL-2070N offer print speeds of up
to 20ppm and outstanding print quality via Brother’s HQ1200 (up to 2400 x 600
dpi) resolution. Both printers are Windows(R) and Mac(R) compatible and feature
a 250-sheet input paper capacity, as well as USB 2.0 full-speed and parallel
interfaces as standard.“We continue to see strong consumer demand for
affordable personal monochrome laser printers for the home and home office,”
said Jeff Sandler, Brother’s Director of Marketing, Printers. “With the new
HL-2040 and HL-2070N, we are clearly addressing this market, while setting a new
standard for printer size, functionality and performance at extremely compelling
consumer price points.”With the introduction of these two new models,
Brother further strengthens its offerings in the personal monochrome laser
market segment. These new lasers provide an economical, low-cost alternative to
consumer color inkjet printers, and deliver an alternative output solution for
frustrated users seeking to reduce their everyday printing costs.Brother
also sees the market for low-cost monochrome laser printers with built-in
network interfaces as offering continued strong growth potential. IDC projects
the U.S. wireless home and home office network segment to grow at a 36% CAGR
between 2005 and 2008(1) . The new HL-2070N is ideally positioned to meet this
rapidly expanding market segment, by offering these customers an affordable
solution for low cost printer sharing.Compatibility, Performance And Value

color scheme as well as 8MB memory capacity. The network-ready HL-2070N includes

network interface, 16MB of standard memory, and a dark charcoal, two-tone color
