  • "The most retarded network printer ever!"
    0.5 stars
    on by JRFrogman

    Pros: None - because it will not work.

    Cons: It only likes one network cable. You can't configure a static ip manually, you need their windoze app.

    Summary: This printer would not work with any of our network cables except one. We could not figure out why. All were Cat e, straight through, purchased from different vendors, and tested good. We had three of these printers and all of them had the same problem. We got them working but they would only work with this one Ethernet cable. We even removed cables from other working equipment and tried them. Nothing worked. We sent those three Brother HL-5370DWs back and canceled the order for another five. It was just ridiculous. I can't imagine why anyone would want this printer but there seems to be lots of glowing reports out there. Go figure.

    You can definitely configure static IP via their web interface...I just did it, it's easy, just put open your web browser, put in the ip address of the printer, you go to network settings (user admin, pw access)->configure tcp/ip->boot method->STATIC, then just put your IP address, gateway, and subnet mask in. I had no trouble with the network cable - I wonder if this user knew what they were doing, since they couldn't figure out how to configure the tcp/ip settings...
