Brother HL-8370 Toner Cartridges

Brother HL-8370 Printer Review

The Brother HL-8370 is a color laser printer with both duplexing and networking support, and it can output up to 32 pages per minute. With a relatively compact footprint, it won't consume a lot of space, and Brother HL-8370 printer toner supplies won't take up a lot of the budget either. High-quality text and graphics are the machine's forte, but photo quality can be a bit lacking.

Connection options are versatile, with a USB port for connecting to a PC. It also includes an ethernet port for wired networking, and Wi-Fi support for wireless setups. In addition, it also supports mobile printing with the use of AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, and many other platforms. Other advanced features include automatic duplexing, which allows for two-sided printing without manual re-feeding, which also helps reduce paper usage.

Paper handling may be a bit disappointing for some potential buyers, as the standard setup includes a 250-sheet main tray and a 50-sheet multipurpose tray for alternative media types. When more printing volume is required, users can also add an optional 500-sheet paper tray, for a total capacity of 800 sheets.

With a maximum resolution of 2400x600 dpi, the HL-8370 can produce sharp output for text and graphics documents, but reviewers note that photos are a bit lackluster. Multiple quality settings allow users to prioritize the fastest output speeds vs. using less Brother HL-8370 toner for each page. The Secure Function Lock feature can also keep sensitive documents safe by requiring a PIN code to be entered into the keypad.

With color printing comes multiple toners to replace, so the cost of Brother HL-8370 toner cartridges goes up overall. The single black Brother HL-8370 toner cartridge has a yield of 2,200 pages, but the three color supplies have yields of 1,400 pages each.

The Brother HL-8370 is more than just a solid choice for small office printing, as it also has expandability for future growth. Its reasonable price tag and affordable supplies add to its value.
