The Brother 1450 is externally identical to the 1250s, the only difference is the printing speed. In the 1250s 12 pages to specify the pages 1450s 14th
The printing unit is very stable, even several 1000 pages per month to make the printer out of nothing.

The printer is set up on all computers as standard equipment. Similarly, everywhere Resolution 600 dpi predefined. The toner save mode is enabled by default. On Windows, just click on 'Linux to high saving ". The Maximalaufkösung of 1200x600 dpi is only used for graphics. The 300 dpi setting I used before.

With these settings, the image is perfect, ideal for everyday correspondence. When many lines are printed graphics must be turned off the toner save mode, because otherwise pt may be printed lines with a width of only 1 will.
The driver has all the necessities of manual settings such as duplex printing, copies or multiple pages per sheet graphically beautiful, so that you can decide quickly and accurately for the correct setting.
Turned off the printer never actually. The built-in power saving mode shuts off after a certain time and automatically when a print job again.
In daily Use I use quite normal 80gsm A4 paper sauerstoffgeleicht, "the cheapest".

Paper jam, there is de facto, never, maybe once a month, and then only if the paper was taken from the basement and immediately inserted into the printer, without which it could again reach room temperature.
Position My advice: Always a box (5x500 sheets) in the vicinity of the printer, there's always enough paper to the right temperature.

The top speed was then, but today still good midfielder: Will (Up to 14 pages per minute, easily reached in normal text) is more than sufficient for normal everyday service.

The consumption of this device is really good. According to the manufacturer, you can print about 6000 pages with the toner cartridge, I print about 6500th.
In the 1450s it has 2 ways to refill toner:
1. Toner Cartridge TN-6300
2. Jumbo Toner Cartridge TN-6600
The TN-6300 has a specified duty cycle of 3,000 sheets with 10% coverage, the TN-6600 6000 pages with 10% coverage has. For comparison, the famous Grauert-(Letters used to test printers) has 5% coverage, so you could be the first page of this letter with the TN-6300 6000 times printed, the TN6600 12,000 times. My experience has shown that the site performance almost exactly matches the manufacturer's specifications, but it is rarely possible to determine the exact blackening of a pressure. We need as about once every 3 months a new toner, and you need at this time 4 carton of paper that corresponds to 10,000 sheets.

The ideal printer for retail space or for small workgroups with a duty cycle up to 5000 pages per month. The separate changing toner and process unit produces a very favorable cost per page.
I really like the design of the printer, he looks much smaller than comparable devices. The service is totally easy, no mess, paper jam removal and controls on the printer (just 1 switch on / off and a combined-function button) are very simple.
The printed image is very good, the HL 1450 resolves very fine and has a pleasant, sharp typeface.
The only drawback: If you print many pages at once, a slight ozone smell is noticeable. Since you rarely print, and very much at a time when the printer is indeed not working directly stands next to a workplace that is verschmerzbar in single-user applications, but it can still be disturbing.

I have not regretted the purchase of the printer. I am very satisfied and the device can only recommend.Since so far no squeaks, no rattles, no creaks occurred, I have no doubt turn, the device is still at least 2 more Years to be able to use.

The good and friendly support, coupled with the long warranty complete my overall impression on a positive note.
