Flexibility that works
Almost any printer will claim to be able to offer
‘flexible solutions’ to the modern office. Yet it is
another thing altogether to be able to fulfil those
claims. With the Brother HL-6050 series, the proof is
in the performance. Nowadays, most office
workgroups incorporate a variety of operating
systems including Windows, Mac and LINUX. The
HL-6050 series has been designed specifically with
this in mind and can handle input from any of these
systems. Parallel and High Speed USB 2.0 ports
mean connection couldn’t be easier, so you are in
business immediately.
However, it is perhaps with the paper input options
where you will see particular benefits. The HL-6050
series comes complete with 500 sheet paper tray
and 100 sheet Multi-purpose tray as standard. There
is also the option to add another 500 sheet lower
paper tray. It is this capability that will prove
invaluable to any office where a variety of printing
stock is used on a regular basis.
The ‘Job Cancel’ and ‘Reprint’ functions are sure to
cut down on the number of errors and frustrations
which inevitably creep into a busy office environment.
And the built-in Braille key-pad has an eye on the
future of incoming Government directives.
Duplex printing
It is important to consider the advantages that
duplex printing brings to the efficiency and
performance of the modern office, which is why
this is an integrated feature of the HL-6050D and
HL-6050DN. This feature can not only reduce
time and effort, but there are savings to be made
both to running costs and to the environment with
less paper required.
Booklet printing becomes as simple and easy as
any other form of printing and creates an
altogether more professional range of documents
for both internal and external presentations.
For instance, a 32 sheet A4 document can be
reduced to an A5 booklet comprising of 8
A4 sheets.
The Duplex function is very straight-forward
to set up. There is nothing additional to buy
and comes as standard on the HL-6050D
and HL-6050DN.
Network connecitivity
The Brother NC-6100h Network Interface
makes connecting your new printer to a
network effortless – just how it should be.
This connectivity comes as standard with the
HL-6050DN and is available as an option on
the HL-6050 and HL-6050D.
Network printing
Compatible with most popular protocols and
platforms, including Microsoft Windows,
Macintosh, Novell, Unix and Linux operating
systems, the combination of the NC-6100h
