The HL-5050 laser printer is a flexible, expandable printer for your home, office, or small connected workgroup. With fast print speeds, graphics-quality printing, upgradeable memory, and outstanding user support, the HL-5050 sets a new standard for quality monochrome printing--the perfect balance of performance, flexibility and value.
The HL-5050 can handle virtually any media via its 250-sheet paper tray and 50-sheet multi-purpose tray. The multi-purpose tray accommodates card stock, letterhead, and envelopes. The printer delivers its highest-quality output (HQ1200, up to 2,400 x 600 dpi) at up to 17 pages per minute--its fastest print speed. With its fast print speed, 16 MB memory (expandable to 144 MB), PCL6 and BR-Script3 (PostScript3) compatibility, and great print quality, this printer delivers both performance and productivity.
A convenient job-cancel button to make unwanted print jobs disappear easily, and the printer's "first-page out" speed falls under 12 seconds. The unit offers the option to add a second 250-sheet lower paper tray to expand the paper input capacity to a total of 500 sheets. Its standard-yield toner cartridge offers up to 3,300-page capacity and the high-yield toner cartridge offers up to 6,500-page capacity. The drum is rated at up to 20,000 pages.
The printer comes with USB and parallel interfaces and standard Windows drivers, as well as drivers for Mac OS X (10.1 and higher) and Mac OS 8.6 to 9.2. An optional external 10/100 BaseT Ethernet print server is available. Brother provides toll-free technical support, a one-year limited warranty, and the online Brother Solutions Center.
