Loved this printer while it lived, but it died way too soon as far as I am concerned. Drive motor failed without warning. Tech support gave only a vague answer as to what the error message meant. I contacted my local authorized service provider and was told the cost of the repair, which turned out to be more than buying a new HL-3075CW. So now I have the new printer, it's working fine, and the old one is now sitting in the box the new one came in. Why did I buy the new one? Because I really like the printer, setup, wireless, efficiency, Mac/PC compatibility, etc. If you are still using your 3070CW, count your blessings and cherish every day you have with it. It may be over in an instant. That's how I feel about my new one, too.

I bought one of these on clearance and have not been dissapointed. Speed is wonderfull. Output is great! Not too saturated and not too pixelated. Gradient is fine. Overall I would say that this is a good home/office color machine. A couple of things to note are the toner mis-reading (the machine tells you that you are out when you are not) and the strange clicking when active after printing. Kind of annoying. Search Google for a number of ways to resolve the toner issue. As far as the clicking is concerned, it is annoying but not a deal breaker so you are just going to have to live with it. It goes away when the printer goes to sleep anyways.

Great printer...wireless networking works great! I have 1 Windows PC, two Linux laptops and two Macs...ALL printing wirelessly! Speed is crazy fast with superb color.
It is a wee bit louder than an inkjet but only when printing. Once a print job is done...it goes back to being quiet.
Note: Wireless printing does not mean direct pc to printer printing, you must have a network setup for the printer to connect to.
Also, OSX Lion will downlaod and install the drivers automatically, no cd required, true plug and play!

On consumer waste: Twice now, my printer has stopped, and told me it couldn't bare to print another page until I installed new toner. On both occasions I manually tricked the printer into thinking I installed new cartridges, and thousands of pages later my pages are just as vibrant.
So why would I spend the money on new toner cartridges, and dump the new ones into the waste stream?
