Standard Features that Make the Difference
The Brother HL-6050 series comes with a number of standard features that really do make a difference to performance. With confidentiality becoming an increasing consideration the integral ‘secure print’ feature will prove invaluable. There is also automatic e-mail notification regarding the status of the printer. If there is a technical fault, paper jam or low toner, the relevant person can be set up to receive an e-mail so that action can be taken immediately, again limiting the frustration of downtime. The barcode printing function will prove invaluable to any distribution or retail operation with 11 standard and 10 additional bar code options. The HL-6050 series also comes with SAP printing as standard. This allows access to more Brother printer features than usual with other manufacturers.

TCO '99 and the Perfect Office
Responsibility for employee welfare has never been more critically discussed than right now. Nor is there any escaping the fact that the onus for environmental improvements in the workplace is most definitely on the employer. Increasingly , as a policy of ‘green procurement’ influences buying decisions, products that are people friendly and environmentally sound are the products of choice. And that's where Brother can help. Working hand in hand with TCO - the organisation that campaigns globally for People-friendly, environmentally sound and safer equipment for the workplace - Brother is developing office equipment designed to safeguard your employees.

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 Bother 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 the end-user 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 impossible to underestimate 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. 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.

Network Connectivity
The Brother NC-6100h Network Inter face makes connecting your new printer to a network effortless – just how it should be. This connectivity is available as an option.
