Brother HL-L2405W Wireless Compact Monochrome Laser Printer with Mobile Printing, Black & White Output | Includes Refresh Subscription Trial(1), Works with Alexa

I finally had enough of fooling around with my HP printer that I bought this one and I'll never go back! What a quality printer. Simple, well constructed, and ink lasts a long time. Set up was fairly easy (easier than hoops HP makes you do). Works great with my laptop and android phone. Prints clear and fast. Much faster than ink jet printers. Brother is now my new printer brand of choice.

Some of you considering this printer might be wondering how difficult it is to set up and connect. This is especially true if you are considering it as a gift, or if you just want a simple setup experience so you can get your printer going fast and get on with your workday.This review is limited only to initial set up and first use (I haven't owned this long enough to provide feedback on reliability, ink toner capacity, or similar long-term characteristics). Almost all printers are not very intuitive or easy to set up initially, so I'm comparing this printer with other printers that I've set u

I print from my laptop, never my mobile device. Setup for this printer is via a QR code, so after spending more than an hour going through the registration/setup process, I was only able to use the printer via my phone. Useless to me. At the very end of setup, there was a message to go to the Brother website to setup to print from my computer. Geez!!! Just show the computer setup option without having to scan the QR code and wasting time setting up on a device I never print from. I then spent another hour+ setting up for my laptop.Before printing, I clicked the Brother Print&Scan icon to regis

The Brother HL-L2405W is a fantastic little laser printer. The print quality exceeds my expectations.Wifi setup with my Samsung Galaxy, Acer laptop, iphone, and iPad was actually very easy. About 30 minutes from start to finish. No cables needed for setup. Simply follow the instructions and you to will have things working in nothing flat.FYI, I'm using a NETGEAR NIGHTHAWK CAX80 MODEN.I highly recomend this printer. Best of luck.

I needed a printer for my home, and I didn't need a color printer. The printer itself works fine-finally. But the printer lost a star because it was difficult to set up the WiFi connection.I have set up my Apple Ecosystem, a Kliptsh sound system with an Onkyo receiver to sync up with a Sony TV and synced up my iPhone with any number of rental cars, so not an idiot. I followed the prompts from their app but never could connect the printer to the WIFI. I then headed over to YouTube and found an instruction video with 250,000 views from others who have despaired trying to follow Brothers instruct

Amazing printer! I love the Wi-Fi feature—it makes printing from anywhere in the house so quick and convenient. Setup was easy, the print quality is great, and it’s exactly what I needed. Very happy with this purchase!

4/17/25 Update: After a few months of use, the printer went into Deep Sleep and when it came out, my EERO 6 had blown it away. After several tries to reconnect it, I reset EERO power and was then able to re-connect to it. I then contacted Brother support and found that(A) Deep Sleep can not be disabled. Tech also sent me a link on "using dual band and Mesh networks". Found that(B) Brother doesn't do 5gHz AT ALL.(C) suggests that you use only SSID's that are 2.4 gHz ONLY.(D) They also say in the note that they "have no way of stabilizing their (apparently all Brother devices) wireless connectio

it’s a great little printer. I had some trouble setting it up because the supporting documentation isn’t really that great and it’s not rocket science, but it was a little more of a chore than I was hoping, but still it’s a great printer for this price, and it’s gonna last for many people two or three years before it needs a replacing toner cartridge.
