Overview
The Brother HL-L2405W is a compact monochrome laser printer built for home and small home-office use. It handles one-sided black and white documents over dual-band wifi or USB, with mobile printing and Alexa support layered on top.
This is a laser printer, not inkjet, so running costs and speed track toner rather than ink cartridges. Brother bundles a free trial of its Refresh EZ Print toner subscription, which is worth checking before it auto-continues. The 250 sheet tray and a manual feed slot cover envelopes and specialty paper as well.
- Up to 30ppm one-sided printing
- Dual-band wifi plus USB connection
- 250 sheet paper tray with manual feed slot
- Works with Alexa voice commands
Who it's for
Fits a household or small office that mostly prints text documents, forms, or school paperwork in black and white. Not a match for anyone who needs color output, since this model is monochrome only.
