7030 is nice but there is a drum to replace after a while. The drum will be more expensive than the machine. That means the toner will be WAY cheaper than other machines(HP, canon, samsung).
I know that for this machine: the toner is about 55$ for 1500 page yield. or 85$ for 2600pages. The drum will last you 12000 pages at about 150$. That means you will buy 8 toners before replacing the Drum.
toner cost at Staples
Even adding the cost of drum per toner: ~18$+55=73$, you're still cheaper than most other printers(Canon, hp, etc...)
So what you found is a good printer. Go for it!

They are sold separately. Same price as the 7030 I just gave prices on.
And to add to
Settie's post: The brother warranty is the same: usually 1 year but it offers a LIFETIME TECH PHONE SUPPORT. like canon.
