Review summary: A faster, wireless cousin for the HL-4150CDN laser printer, which is cheaper to run, but colours aren't that true.

Verdict: Like its cheaper sibling, Brother's HL-4570CDW is a solid, workgroup colour laser. It's a bit quicker and includes wireless networking support, but the £130 difference between the two models still seems a bit steep. The print speed is fine, duplex...

Review summary: In most respects the Brother HL-4570CDW colour laser printer is a good value.

Verdict: The Brother HL-4570CDW has the speed and features to stand up to the rigours of a small to medium-size office. It's less adept at printing photos, as many midpriced models are.

Review summary: Competitive in speed and features, but not photo quality, the HL-4570CDW small-business laser printer is best for mainstream use.

Verdict: The text output of the HL-4570CDW is superb, appearing sharp and deep black, with nary a jaggy or other defect. Color graphics and photos printed on plain paper look slightly dull and exhibit distracting moiré (background patterning). You'll notice...

Review summary: Of late, we've seen a bumper crop of color laser printers—at very attractive prices. The problem is, with so many choices, how do you decide which one is for you? Obviously, the price of the printer, text print quality, and per-page print costs are...

Verdict: This moderately priced color laser delivers very good text print quality and multipage print speeds for small or home offices. Graphics prints and first-page-out speeds were subpar, however.

Review summary: At 12.3 by 16.1 by 19.1 inches (HWD), the printer is suitably compact for a small office, and even small enough to share a desk with. Note that it weighs 46.3 pounds, however, which you may not consider light enough to move into place without some...

Verdict: Despite somewhat below-par photo quality, the Brother HL-4570CDW delivers an impressive combination of speed, output quality, and paper handling for a small office or workgroup.

Review summary: The HL-4570CDW may be quick to print and cheap to run, but its colour accuracyisn't all that good and the £200 premium over the HL-4150CDN seems a bit excessive to us.
