[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Brother HL-L2865DW for my home office, and it has exceeded my expectations in every way. The wireless printing feature is incredibly convenient, allowing me to print from my laptop, phone, or tablet with ease. The print quality is sharp and professional, and the speed is impressive—it churns out pages quickly, which is a huge time-saver for my small business. It can be a bit noisy when it first starts up, but once it’s running, it operates quietly, especially compared to other printers.
The compact design fits perfectly in my workspace without taking up too much room, and its clean white finish adds a professional look. I was pleased with how well it was packaged, and the included 2-meter cord provides flexibility in where to place it. One of my favourite features is the fully removable paper tray, which makes loading paper and adjusting sizes with the side tabs incredibly convenient, especially when I frequently need to change paper sizes for my business.
Setup was straightforward with the guide; installing the toner and plugging it in was all that was needed. Connecting it to Wi-Fi through the Brother mobile app was a bit finicky at first, but after a couple of attempts, it worked fine. Less tech-savvy users may find the process tricky, though.
The small one-line screen doesn’t bother me, as this is a simple monochrome printer without scanning or copying functions, and I appreciate its straightforward design. Overall, this printer has been an excellent investment for both personal and professional use, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for reliability and efficiency!
