What truly sets this printer apart is its wireless connectivity, allowing for easy printing from mobile devices, laptops, or any other wireless-enabled device. This feature, coupled with duplex printing, significantly enhances productivity by enabling fast, two-sided printing, which saves time and paper.
The mobile connectivity is further complemented by the inclusion of a Refresh Subscription Trial and Amazon Dash Replenishment readiness. These services ensure that you never run out of toner by automatically ordering supplies when you're running low, adding an extra layer of convenience and ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Despite its compact size, the DCP-L2640DW doesn't compromise on speed or quality. It delivers crisp, clear black & white documents at impressive speeds, making it suitable for a wide range of printing needs. The scanning and copying functionalities are equally efficient, offering high-resolution outputs that meet professional standards.
In conclusion, the Brother DCP-L2640DW is a versatile and user-friendly multi-function printer that offers great value for its price. Its combination of wireless connectivity, efficient performance, and convenient features like duplex printing and automatic replenishment services make it an excellent choice for small office and home office users looking for a compact yet powerful printing solution.
It also has Built in Wired and Wireless Networking. This printer DOES work with the Brother android and Apple apps and prints very nicely from you phone. This was a prerequisite for the client I purchased this for.
The only thing I wish it had was a better way to navigate the menu system. Its using the arrow keys and the ok button. It works, just takes some getting used to.
Same goes for entering the WiFi password. You have to arrow to each letter. Her password was all lowercase so that was easy but if you have symbols and uppercase that takes a little more time to enter. Another area that gave some issues, but setting up the Scan to PC funtion. I never could get it working properly. She also didnt need that function as you can do it right from the PC itself so we never spent too much time on it.
Otherwise the printer is very fast and good quality printing, Durable and should last for many many years.
Top reviews from other countries
Prints quickly, quality & the cartridges last a long time. The build quality is also acceptable.
Brother is the last bastion of ethical manufacturers in a market of extremely skeezy businesses. This device is everything you can reasonably expect.
Came quickly. Packaged very well. Fits in area old one sat in. Is taller and heavier but didn't have fax. That alone is not something I need also. There are other models that have this and colour also but at this price I was happy to get this.
My only problem was setting up. A little bit of searching online fixed this. This is also because I use Linux. After doing the steps again found on another website I have it working properly. As said I print so rarely it took a few extra weeks to get to setting back up.
WIreless printing works fine on my network.
The toner should last a while as says about 750 pages. The toner for this unit is decent priced also as compared to others seen while shopping.
Now no more wasted ink cartridges and ruined print heads.
