Brother HL-4040cn Color Laser Printer with Built-in Network Interface Review

Got this printer due to my 2 other very positive Brother Laser printers, HL5240 & MFC7840W, both excellent, fast and very reliable, the second reason is my old favorite, Konica Minolta 2300DL (Color Laser) is dying and hoping to combine the function with my still working Brother HL5240 to save space.
Involved with design and illustrations, I print 80% of my work & documents in full color or combination text & color images, in short, I'm very color sensitive.
Brother HL 4040CN is very easy to network even with Multi Window OS desktops, my home office got 2 Vista, 2 XP pro & a XP Media Center PC. Very fast and good text printing quality, actually the color is not even that bad, if I'm not that sensitive.

Pros:
Easy to install and network.
Flip up LCD minimized glare and makes it easy to read the text and ink monitoring.
Fast wake up from sleep or energy saver mode, I really like the light blinking when the machine it in progress or warming up.
Easy front access both for toner replacement, paper tray & bypass paper slot, kind of idiot proof.
Noise level when printing and warm up is comparable to my other laser printers, probably less.
Heavy and looks like it's very well built.
USB interface on the front is a plus.

Cons:
Color prints are warmer and slightly purple & green compared to the output from my Epson Inkjet & Magicolor prints.
On the Green side, I think Brother should redesign their packaging, the unit is almost the same size as HP but the box is 100% more, it's so big that I can't even fit it in regular NYC yellow cab, I probably need to rent a UHAL van the next time I buy one of this.

I was trying hard to love this printer and keep it even though the color prints are a little off, not until when my nephew drops by, look at the print and said to me, "nice terrazzo floor with beige field and gray border", with that comment, I realized it's time to return the printer, since the actually floor have white field and green borders.

In fairness, I replaced this with a HP CP1518ni, Hp is even worst, prints much darker than any of my color laser, slower than Brother, slightly prints more red & orange, not as sharp and very muddy. I end up getting another Konica Minolta, Magicolor 2550, it's the closes match of a laser print that you could get to a decent ink jet print. But if I have to pick between Brother and HP from this experience, I'll take Brother without hesitation. And finally.....Thank you Staples, you are the best.
