Overview

In 2011, we gave high marks to Brother’s HL-2270DW, a similar printer that’s easy to use, inexpensive toner costs, and lightning-fast printing. Now, there’s a new monochrome laser printer from Brother. 

Brother wisely prices it at $150 and expands the feature set by including a one-line LCD screen on the top panel for more straightforward menu navigation. The printer is also compatible with Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print, Google Chrome Print, and numerous other platforms.

Due to its future-proof compatibility with virtually every device on the market, this Brother laser printer is a good option if you need a light to medium duty B&W laser printer. 

Consider comparing it against Samsung, HP, and even Brother itself — some of which offer multi-function capabilities — which are increasingly gaining market share in the bargain laser space.

Paper Tray for Toner Refilling

Like most of the laser printers, the Brother HL-L2360DW paper tray on the front of the unit can be removed to refill the toner. The front lip folds down to reveal the toner port. Due to the printer’s capability of holding up to 250 sheets of 8.5-by-11-inch paper, along with a 10,000-page duty cycle, you won’t need to refill the paper too often.

Moreover, the printer features a single-sheet manual-feed bypass tray capable of handling a variety of paper sizes, including letter, legal, executive, A4, A5, A6, B5, B6, and envelopes.

Connectivity options

A micro office can easily share the printer with the HL-L2360DW’s Ethernet and Wi-Fi options. Even if a USB cable connects the printer to just one PC, you can connect directly from a mobile device to it. 

Brother’s mobile print app lets you print directly, through Wi-Fi Direct, or your Wi-Fi access point from iOS, Android, Kindle Fire, and Windows mobile devices. You can print on this brother printer through the cloud if your network is connected to the Internet. We connected our printer and computer without wires in less than ten minutes once we knew our network name and SSID password.
