Brother DCP-L2540DW

Things I don't like about the L2540DW: 1. Manual covers several models - makes reading it difficult 2. Too much trouble to print envelopes (reset levers and the envelopes come out the back. 3. Printer did not come ready for a new imac, had to download software 4. Computer/Printer interface seems outdated 5. Tons of email but, but what I need is a cartridge at a good price. I will cease receiving emails.

For the price it is a deal, If your system is just 5 years old or older forget it! It will not work well if at all. no drivers for it. FYI - I have MAC computers.

Great Value

The directions are worthless, it doesn't work that way. You have to call helpline to set it up. The setup process they had me do failed several methods before one finally worked. I am sure the software and hardware involved are a cobble job!
But once you do that, everything seems to work fine. The savings over using a color lazer printer for all Black and white printing in black and white mode is significant, since color printers use up the 3 expensive color cartridges at a rate of about 3 colored per 2 black. And they make them so they wont work at all in black and white printing with any one or more color cartridges empty or missing
I would recommend this to a friend!

Doesn't do 2 sided copies

This is a good black and white printer/copier/scanner if you don't want to make 2 sided copies. I thought that because it said it was a duplex printer it would make 2 sided copies but it does not and that is a problem for me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Must Replace Ink Constantly
on September 28, 2017
Posted by: Bobby24
from Boston, MA, United States
I bought a laser printer with the idea that I would have to buy less ink. The exact opposite is true. I have to buy new ink every 600 pages. So just over one ream. And the ink is incredibly expensive. This machine is a money pit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

DCP-L2540DW Review
on May 17, 2015

I had a Brother MFC Fax machine for over 15 years before it out lived all the local repair shops that would replace the heat strip to transfer from the carbon paper roll to the copy paper. This is the reason I purchased another Brother product. High Quality and Long lasting, nuff said.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best Brother printer ever!
on June 18, 2015

I am pretty loyal to Brother printers because they are easy to use and last a long time. I was in need of an upgrade because I wanted an all-in-one so I could work from home more often. This printer is exactly what I needed. I love that I can scan a document from my computer or just press one button on the printer and scan from there. I love that it's wireless. I set it up in another part of my house leaving more space on my desk. I can't rave enough about this printer, this was a really smart purchase on my part!
