Brother International today introduced its new HL-5000 Series (HL-5040, HL-5050 and HL-5070N) of 17 PPM (pages per minute) personal laser printers — the new line replaces the existing HL-1400 Series printers. The new printers offer improved performance and features that include faster print speeds, higher print resolution, improved paper handling, enhanced and expandable memory, interactive help and online user support. The HL-5040, HL-5050 and HL-5070N will have estimated street prices of US$299, $349 and $499, respectively. In addition, Brother announced that the HL-5070N Laser Printer will support Apple’s Rendezvous technology, which they say is a “revolutionary networking technology for automatic discovery and connection of devices.”
