Brother Compact Monochrome Laser Printer, HL-L2350DW, Wireless Printing, Duplex Two-Sided Printing, Includes 4 Month Refresh Subscription Trial and Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

So this was really easy to set up from the Quickstart guide. Just download the software, your quickstart guide gives the website address. Don't use the included disk because it will be out of date. Plug in the printer, plug in a USB printer cable, no it doesn't come with one but I have spares from old dead printers. Plug cable into computer, turn on printer. Windows will automatically install drivers, this isn't a problem. Run the software installer. It will walk you through the installation. Put in your network key when it asks you, not your router password. It connects right away to your network. Unplug USB from computer. After installation you can use the included IPrint & Scan software tool icon to tweak your printer settings from browser based ip address that opens automatically when you click on the tool icon. You can log into your settings using the admin password that's on back of the printer and this will give you a more complete set of settings. You can print out the initial settings from there as a baseline in case you change something and don't like it. The menues are pretty self explanitory though lack detailed info. You can download all the many printer guides from the Brother site for your printer. The complete online guide is good for opening in your web browser and being able to click on the table of contents to quickly get to what you want. If you save it as a PDF you won't be able to click the TOC links. It's too fat to print out unless you like wasting toner and paper. This guide gives all the printer menu options on the LED and how to access them from the printer. You can set the toner Continue mode from computer, the deep sleep mode has to be set from there printer. I haven't had any problems with it coming out of deep sleep. The printer automatically enters sleep mode but comes out fast, warms up fast from power on and prints very fast. The double sided setting works very well. You can set your print preferences from your print options menu from whatever program you are using, toner save, paper type, toner density etc and save them in custom settings tab. I'm using a 20 lb paper, so it does curl from the heat. I'll try a thicker 32 lb paper for when I need better copies. I ran 80 lb smooth cardstock through and it handled it well but did get some heat curling. The printer doesn't feel hot. Paper just doesn't like heat. It's not that big or heavy and fits well in my small office. The cord is a decent enough length, 3 pronged. Paper tray is adjustable to different sizes. Print is good and clear, toner can be adjusted from very dark to toner save, in your printing preferences. Sign into brother-usa.com to register your machine. I'm using this to print plain documents and high quality black and white graphics. Grey tones are good too if that's what you are needing. Brother Creative Center has lots of free projects you can use for printing or to use their graphics. I like Brother products, have had good experience with them. Haven't decided if I'm going to use after market toner or stick to Brother. Depends on how fast I end up going through toner. I'm giving a 5 star rating for tech support though I haven't called them for this printer, that rating is based on tech support I've received with my other brother all in one ink jet and my brother scan n cut. The printer came new, well packaged and fairly fast. It's not pretty if you're looking for pretty. Please note I've had this printer only one day and if things change I'll update to reflect that. I paid full price for this printer, 115.00, so this review is totally my own.

I was looking for a decent, economic B & W printer. This one is a reliable choice for those seeking efficient and high-quality black-and-white printing. Its compact design makes it ideal for small offices or personal use, fitting neatly into tight spaces. The printer is known for its fast-printing speeds, producing sharp and clear text documents, which is perfect for professional needs. I can attest that the copies are clear. It also offers versatile connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and USB, making it easy to integrate into various setups. And it was a no-brainer to set up. Additionally, the printer supports mobile printing, allowing users to print directly from their smartphones or tablets. Overall, the Brother Compact Monochrome Laser Printer is a solid choice for those prioritizing speed, quality, and affordability in monochrome printing. It’s particularly well-suited for text-heavy tasks and environments where color printing isn’t a necessity.

I’ve had this for over a year now and it is great. It’s a simple, no-fuss black and white printer. It just works - no problems, no need for new ink or to toner or whatever. I’ve never had such an enjoyable printer. My only wish is that it was a smaller. It’s already nicely smaller than other printers I’ve had, but if they could make it even smaller, it’d be perfect!

I love brother products and use them in my office. I have three of the all-in-ones. This is the first mono I bought. Bought this for my girlfriend's place. Long story short, it prints great it's fast and has the brother quality that I expect. The only downside of this printer is a pain in the ass to set up! It is not quick and easy and I don't know why I struggle so much with this thing but even when it loses connection it sucks. That said it's been running for months now with no issues but getting it hooked up a couple of laptops and Android devices to print to it was no simple task! I better use brother customer support before and they're fantastic, but this was the weekend and I really wanted to get it going so I struggled. I'm fairly Savvy with computers but this thing was not simple to get hooked up. That said if it's a good buy it's worth the hassle because it prints great is fast and very reliable. And if you haven't done so with brother printers figure out how to reset the cartridges because they will go a long long time before they say they need to be replaced. And I'm talking hundreds and hundreds of pages. I reset all my cartridges on all my printers until they simply start going light. They love to tell you to change your toner, cartridges and rollers WAY before they're due!!! If it weren't for the hassle of the setup this would get a five-star rating. It's a good printer!
