Edited Notes
They advertise 1200x600 but this is only with the Windows DIB emulation. Even at 600x600 produces crisp, readable 9-up output.
Brother publishes proprietary Linux drivers for CUPS and LPD for most of their laser printers and multi-function devices, including SANE drivers for the scanners. They can be downloaded free of charge on their Linux driver page.
Consumables/Refills: Toner/Drum cartridge, ~$175
