The Bottom Line	The Brother HL-5140 is an affordable laser printer that will grow with your small business or home office.	A great little monochrome laser printer, it offers fine output, duplexing, and a tight footprint that lets it fit right into any business, school, or home office.		Fast and intelligently designed, the LaserJet 1200 delivers stunning output at an unbeatable price to SOHO users and small workgroups.	Small businesses should take a serious look at the Samsung ML-2851ND's monolaser because of its excellent print speed, text print quality, autoduplexer, and networking features. It's a little more expensive than the competition, but its chart-topping test results speak for themselves.
