HP Laser Jet P1006 vs. Brother HL-2040

Si ze f t he rin te r’ fo ot pr in

Boost productivity and reduce costs with the HP Laser Jet P1006 printer (w id th ep th ) i Fast, on-demand printing — Instant-on Technology lets your HP Laser Jet P1006 print up to 4 pages from sq ua re fe et powersave mode before the Brother HL-2040 can even finish warming up. Energy efficient — The advanced, fast-heating ceramic element within your HP Laser Jet P1006’s Instant-on Fuser consumes significantly less energy than the conventional fuser Brother builds into the HL-2040. Your HP Laser Jet also meets the new, more strict ENERGY STAR® rules that went into effect April 1, 2007. Faster processor — Enjoy fast sustained performance thanks in part to your HP Laser Jet P1006’s powerful processor (266 MHz vs. the Brother HL-2040’s 96-MHz chip). Virtually maintenance free — Your HP Laser Jet P1006 employs an innovative print cartridge that incorporates the toner supply, imaging drum, primary charge roller, and developer into one single, integrated unit you can easily replace with no mess. The Brother HL-2040 uses a complex 2-piece system that forces users to stock and replace an extra consumable. Furthermore, whenever Brother users replace toner, they must be careful not to damage the device’s photosensitive imaging drum, which becomes exposed during the process, plus they must clean the corona wire to prevent damage that can lead to print-quality defects. With HP, you don’t. Better paper handling — You can stock up to 43-lb. bond in your HP Laser Jet P1006’s standard paper tray. The Brother HL-2040’s standard paper tray only accepts up to 28-lb. bond. While Brother’s manual feed slot will accomodate weights up to 43-lb. bond, it only accepts a single sheet or envelope at a time vs. 10 for HP.
