Best printer for 99% of jobs

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 4 July 2023

I won't bother with HP who like to astort people with subscriptions and rubbish hardware.

This printer is fantastic, you don't need to fight with it, brother are a great company I've heard story's of their printers lasting 20 years!

If 99% of what you need to print is text, get brother laser, you won't regret it.

Don't be tempted by the cheap £30 printers from the likes of HP. They are horrible I ended up smashing mine as I could not barwbthe fight.

Pay extra and you won't have "No Brother" 🤣

Simply put I say print, brother prints, works fine on all devices, extremely easy to setup.

Ill only get brother printers and Louis rossman on YouTube speaks highly of them so you know they are a good company.

For brother deciding not to rip people of with subscriptions, I'll only by brother acxeories or paper to support them.

Brother is one company that does not support you will own nothing and be happy.

I just wish my brother would do what he's told 🤣👍👍

Brick

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 June 2023

Review for HL-L2310D
The instructions say
1) Remove packaging
2) Load Paper
3) Connect power cord and turn on
4) Connect your computer
In this last step it says to insert the disk or download the drivers.
But you need a USB-A cable to directly connect to the computer. It isn't supplied and the instructions don't mention this as a step.
Very lucky I had one lying around. Otherwise this is just a brick until you go to the store to buy what is a fairly non-standard USB cable these days.
Because the instructions are written for all the machines in the family they have obviously neglected the entry level baby. So unless you want the most basic possible machine and already have a USB cable of the correct type I would go for a wireless enabled model with a W in the model code.

I got the printer only option

Yes. I only got the printer as space was a issue. I know it had dimensions in the description but you only really know what itll be like when it's out of the box and insitu.

I researched infrequently used printer and that's why I settled on laser rather than inkjet (nosels/blockages).

I've set it up, typing in the WiFi password on the printer, which didn't take as long as I thought it would, but still a bit fussy.

Only one wire for power if you have it on WiFi, two if you're going to connect it to your router.

Prints quality prints, quickly. I haven't tried to buy new ink and install so ill update when I do.

NOT great at photos but then I knew it wouldn't before purchase.

Always research. Check out YouTube. They will always have useful into about all products.

It's big. Reading the dimensions doesn't really do it justice until you have it on your desk and see how much space it takes. Prints quickly and easy to set up. Liking how useful it is. I've printed a lot. Would have used up a black cartridge on my old ink printer by now. Worth the money if you're mainly printing black and white documents

Works great but was possibly a return

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 5 May 2023

Size Name: Print/Scan/CopyStyle Name: 30 Pages Per MinutePattern Name: WIFIVerified Purchase

I've had this just a little under a month and it works great. Automatic 2 sided print is a great paper saver too. Prints quickly with not jams from the main feeder. Some issues with jams from the single sheet feeder but that could be because I am trying to feed in labels that are a little thicker than your usual 80gsm copier. It catches as if it will print then says there is a jam, though there isn't one. I have to take out the full drum unit once or twice for it to reset.

The only reason for the drop to four stars is that, when received, you could clearly see that the box had been opened and re-taped and when I opened it the drum unit was already in, so I think this was a return. It works great so I am happy to keep but it was sold to me as new/unused and should have been a warehouse sale with a slight discount.

Not sure why people are saying this doesn't work with Linux

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 July 2023

Size Name: Print/Scan/CopyStyle Name: 30 Pages Per MinutePattern Name: WIFIVerified Purchase

Works like a charm here with Debian 12 KDE.

What I had to do to set it up:
Use the controls on the printer to select my WIFI network and enter the WIFI password.
Hit print on my document in Linux.

That's all. The printer is driverless and just works. There really is no setup.

This is a perfect little mono laser printer and was exactly what I was looking for. Reliable, fairly cheap, small and includes AirPrint!

It just prints!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 27 June 2023

Size Name: Print OnlyStyle Name: 34 Pages Per MinutePattern Name: WIFIVerified Purchase

This printer consistently actually prints. No proprietary software, no drying out, no messing about, it just... prints.

Also, I printed off around 100 pages and it used so little ink that it still registers as full, and new toner cartridges are fairly cheap, and it doesn't pop up a thousand messages I'd you don't use a proprietary one.

Literally the best printer on the market right now by far.

The free toner does not print 700 pages

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 17 May 2023

Size Name: Print OnlyStyle Name: 34 Pages Per MinutePattern Name: WIFIVerified Purchase

Great little laser printer. I wish I had invested in a laser printer years ago instead of the inkjet one. The toner it arrives with does not print 700 pages as advertised, more like 400 and a bit.. I know this because I've needed to print 400 pages and a warning has arrived telling me toner is low. I m finding it difficult to laocate a toner too. Brother toner is very expensive so Im going with a compatible one. Some review have said compatible cartridges do not work, while others say they do. I'll take a punt.
