Brother HL5470DW Wireless Monochrome Laser Printer vs Brother DCP-1612W

It works and works and works.

A standard 300 page capacity tray plus a 50 page multi-purpose tray, this semi-compact printer offers adequate (although not plentiful) sheet storage. You can also get a different model ($349) which has an extra 500 page tray, totaling the page count to 800.

Ink for a single page is 2.1 cents - cheaper than most printers. This can help save costs down the road.

You can print from anywhere in the office, and without needing to worry about cables.

While rated at 40ppm (pages per minute), no printer actually achieves those speeds out of the box in real world testing. Printing just plain text it comes close to the rated 40ppm, although once any graphics need to be printed the speed drops dramatically down to under 11ppm

No A3 though obviously.

Energy star brand.

It'll try to detect visible wifi networks first, but you can set a custom name to search for.

Far as i've tried it, no smell, so works ok in small rooms.

Low maintenance, cheaper cost per page than an inkjet.
