Unfortunately, it turns out that if you choose this option, the device will attempt to set up an ad-hoc network with your router to initiate the pairing.

Brother's software walk-through gives you two options for installing the driver using either a wired or wireless setup-we went straight for the wireless option. The printer is also Mac, Windows, and even Linux compatible.Д¬onnecting the printer to our wireless network gave us a significant amount of trouble, but we were eventually able to connect it to our wireless router, an older D-Link DI-624. Most monochrome laser printers don't come with same breadth of connection options. The Brother HL-2170W also comes with three options for connecting to your computer: USB 2.0, 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet, and wireless 802.11 b/g. Design nerds will probably be more satisfied with the glossy finish and atypical footprint of the Samsung ML-1630.ДЄs we mentioned, the HL-2170W includes 32MB of internal memory, which allow you to queue more documents at one time and generally speed up the whole printing process. The Brother HL-2170W isn't the prettiest pup in the show, designed with utility, not fashion, in mind. Other than that, this printer has few other features to brag about.

The control panel is just as simple as the body of the HL-2170W itself, including one large all-inclusive 'Go' button (error recovery, wake-up, job cancel, wireless on/off, manual feed) and three small LEDs for toner, drum, and error status. We printed more than 150 sheets of paper during our lab testing and never experienced a paper jam or even the slightest delay. Also, there is a manual feed paper slot handles an assortment of different paper sizes including Letter, Legal, Executive, A4, A5, A6, B5, B6, and envelopes.

If you're the average home user, you probably won't need to refill too often considering the printer can hold 250 sheets of standard 8.5 inch by 11 inch paper. The front lip folds down to reveal the toner port and like most laser printers, the paper tray is located on the face of the unit and can be fully removed from the body for refills. Designwise, it's unassuming and finished in the same matte grey found on most cubicle walls and the original Nintendo Gameboy.

As far as laser printers go, this little guy is more David than a Goliath at 6.7 inches tall and 14.5 inches wide and weighs just fifteen pounds. The HL-2170W has the same overall size and design as the HL-2140 ($129.99) but adds 32MB of onboard memory and an 802.11b/g wireless interface for an additional $20, boosting the total price to $150.
