Brother Monochrome Laser Printer with 32 PPM Speed and Automatic 2-Sided Printing for Home Office, Fast Black and White Output, Compact Design with 250-Sheet Capacity (HL-L2400D)EPEAT

Nothing fancy here - just a great USB / Ethernet Wired Laser Printer that has a great reputation for reliability and long life. This came without a USB cable. The included "starter" Toner should do about 700 standard pages. I ordered an XL Toner Cartridge which should do about 3,000 standard pages .... that's probably 10 years, for basic general home use for this old guy. The specs say the image drum should be replaced after 15,000 pages .... I'll be long gone before I get anywhere near that. Anyway, I love the simplicity and speed of this printer. The resolution is up to 1200 dots per inch, but even at the default 600 DPI my prints are very dark and very sharp. The software was an easy install and works perfect.y on my Widows 10 notebook. I noted that this printer works on Linux systems, too. I bought this printer because I'm giving my old Pantuum Laser to my granddaughter; in 3rd grade and already needs a printer. I've only received the printer today and I'm absolutely loving it. The manual feed tray works smoothly with adhesive label sheets and the labels feed and print perfectly. I do volunteer work and that's my primary use for this printer. NOTE: This printer draws 450 watts when printing and 45 watts on Standby. It has an an engergy-saving feature that powers-off the printer after it sits idle for awhile. Just tap the round Power button and you're back to printing in a few seconds. I find this auto-power-off feature very handy in my home office because even my Notebook goes to sleep when I leave it for too long and everyone forgets to turn things off. This is my second Brother Printer and it's defintely one of the best purchases I;ve made this year.

didn't come with a USB cable, so I bought one. then I discovered it has no Mac drivers. and it's sounds like that's because it has proprietary drivers that force firmware upgrades to disable 3rd party ink.what a pile of e-waste. I thought brother printers were the exception after my last one but looks like they're lost.amazon made it right with a return but so angry I wasted so much time on this

This is a perfectly designed black and white printer that actually works. In the past, I purchased several purportedly higher end printers. They could only connect to your computer via a convoluted process of setting up and linking a new wifi network- and they literally never worked.I specifically ordered this printer because it physically connects to my computer with a literal etheret cable, then the new printer simple appears as an option in my computers print menu, without any additional installation required. You do have to buy the ethernet cable separately. I ordered the type with a helical connection on one end - linking into the printer, and a USB head on the other - for the computer.This printer has worked 100% of the time for me. It prints a huge volume of pages in basic black ink, extremely rapidly, fairly noisily, but that's what lots of pages printing sounds like. The lettering is printed completely dry, no splotches or smearing. I used it to print several hundred pages for a critical housing matter, with no issues.The physical design is perfect for printing many pages - the printed documents securely emerge on the wide top of the printer with no risk of falling to the floor, with plain paper securely loaded into the base. It isn't like many others where the printed documents also spit out over an unstable extending piece liable to fall. In summary, this is perfect for someone who actually needs to rapidly print lots of organized documents, without any jammed, misplaced, or smudged documents, without any bells and whistles. It is also extremely cheap with high life cartridge. I hope they keep making these solid, simple, and reliable models.

What a nice affordable printer. I have a Brother sewing machine, which I really like, and I'm just as happy with this basic Brother printer. I chose a laser printer so that I don't have to deal with ink cartridge issues. It's simple to set up, black and white copies are all I need, and it makes excellent two-sided copies very quickly.

I am a student who likes to print out her readings because it helps me retain them better. Unfortunately, my school increased the charges for printing and I decided it would be more economical to buy a printer.I chose this printer because I saw good things about the brand, a lot of recommendations for laser printers over inkjet ones, and this was the cheapest available. So far I've encountered two issues:1. I was unable to install the drivers on the brother support website completely. I followed the directions and I waited to connect the printer until I was prompted but it wouldn't advance. Luckily I can still print so I'm not going to complain.2. I live in an old apartment and while this is likely on me for not doing more research, I did not expect that my ceiling lights would flicker while the printer was turning on and while it was doing print jobs.So far the printer is working nicely, but I do not necessarily feel like I made the better choice by choosing this printer over others. I'll need more time to decide that and hope to come back with more to say soon.

Nice no-frills Brother printer that does a fantastic job! Excellent value • Easy setup • Easy to use
