DCP-7020 Monochrome Laser All in One Printer

Strengths: rapid warm-up, fast printing, excellent print quality, sort function for collating multiple copies

Weakness: cannot copy light pencil sketches

I bought this printer for business use and have been very pleased with my purchase. I use it as a stand-alone copier sporadically throughout the day and turn it off after each use. It warms up quickly—just flip the switch and it is ready to go in 20 seconds. In comparison to other laser printer/copiers that I looked at in the same price range (or for a slightly higher price), this one prints...

Brother DCP-7020 review

Strengths: low price, cheap genuine toner price, fast

Weakness: small copy area (8.5x11), ok print quality

i got this mainly for its copying function. it works great for what i need..which is to occasionally make a few copies..rather than running out to staples every time. it's also fast. the print quality is decent. sometimes some parts of the copy appears a bit blurry. it would also be difficult to copy anything larger than 8.5x11 but that's rare for me.

Good selection of price/functions/quality

Strengths: Easy setup; quite in sleep; fast warm-up; good print/copy quality.

Weakness: No fax; manual paper feed not easy to use; no LED power on/off indicator

This is what I looking for personal use with good print/copy quality, fast speed, and low price. The main weakness is no fax, which I think might turn away many potential buyers. With scanner already in place, a fax should be very easy to be added.

Perfect to use as a home B&W Printer

Strengths: Clear Printouts, Nice features for the money

Weakness: Somewhat loud

I got this laser printer because I couldn't stand to keep buy inkjet cartridges for my older printer. They are too expensive and the black and white quality was nowhere near as good as the brother laser printer. I did some research and saw that the toner for this laser printer was a reasonable price for the output. So far its been the best printer I have owned. The scan quality is pretty good in...

Brother DCP-7020

Strengths: Cheap copies at appx. 2 cents per copy. Great speed at 20 cpm, and excellent print quality.

Weakness: Scan quality is a little poor, FAX & PDF would be a wonderful function. Plastic casing is weak, and does not scream durability. Can be noisy and warm up is long. LEGAL copies are difficult to make.

This is an excellent printer/copier for the money. At a price point just north of a hundred dollars, and affordable, separate toner and drum replacements, you only replace what you need, saving money down the line. It works out to about 1.5-2 cents a copy. The copier is fast, but if you are making just one copy, you'd be better of to wait as any quickness in printing multiple copies is sacraficed...

A Good Buy - All in one Laser Printer.

Strengths: Reasonable price. Resolution is good. Low price toner. Light weight.

Weakness: No fax. Little bit slow speed.

For low price laser printer, this is a good buy. For less than $ 200, you'll get a combo (FLATBED)copier/printer/scanner even with feeder. Why spend $ 500 - you can get a color laser for that price. I really recommend this product.

Decent product (I think) but poor customer support

Strengths: Price, performance, good print quality

Weakness: I got a bad unit, poor support

I was very excited about the prospect of a good quality, B/W laser printer with copy and scanning functionality...and at $190, you can't beat the price. It would have been a great deal, but from the moment I unpacked the machine and turned it on, it never printed correctly. From the first print, the paper was heavily streaked with toner on both sides of the paper (weird because it only prints on...

Brother DCP-7020 Monochrome Laser All in One Printer

Strengths: Compact, crisp copy quality, energy efficient.

Weakness: The software's "Control Panel" not immediately intuitive to this user.

Nice, reasonably priced machine that will allow you to copy more than sheet feed applications. Has the look of a "big" machine, with many of the features at a very reasonable price. The USB or Parallel cable feature is great! A pretty nice machine for the money!

Warning: Power Hog!

Strengths: Good print quality. Low price. Not huge.

Weakness: When the printer wakes up from "sleep" mode, it may cause your computer to shut down due to heavy current draw, causing a "brownout" condition for items plugged into your UPS or Surge Protector!

When the printer wakes up from "sleep" mode, it may cause your computer to shut down due to heavy current draw, causing a "brownout" condition for all items plugged into an UPS. Our PC is plugged into the battery side of the UPS, the printer is plugged into the passthrough (Surge Protection only). Our new printer worked fine for several minutes until it "went to sleep". Upon "waking" the printer...

The best $100 ever spent

Strengths: Simply loving it. I'm 100% satisfied with something first time in my life :) It's the very well spent $100 (after rebate and coupon)

Weakness: Heavy and wouldn't fit to my carry on luggage otherwise I'd take it wherever I'd go. Wish there was a fax also.

Everything is perfect. I don't remember how many rolls of paper I bought over the last 1.5 years and the starter cartridge is still going and going. And I am very sorry that one day when my visa expires, I will have to part from my 7020. I wish it was a little smaller and lighter, so I'd take this one with me. But I'll get another one regardless where I'll be. Very good job Brother.
