* Followed the included quick set up guide to load the cartridge
* I used the old printer cable from the HP (see pic) - it works fine
* With printer connected to the PC - went to setup.brother.com, provided the model & DL ONLY the driver & install pack
* Ran the exe. for this driver pack, then opened Printers and Scanners on Win 11
* The printer was there - ran a test page and voila - it's ready and printing
- I've printed 5 pages so far, print quality is great on small fonts, Also tested with heavy glossy stock same good results
- This is my first Brother machine - I read a lot of reviews and they were clearly least complaints
* Note majority of complaints were setting up the wireless print function
* The laser cartridge print output consistently got high marks and that was a key need for me
- I did not connect the wireless feature as it's just for my office, but will update when I do if it's painful or if something else goes wrong - Hope this review helps prospective buyers

MY HP Inkjet Envy produced a darker and shaper image, but the cost of that was far too high. Even with refilled ink cartrages. Can't speak to the Brother ink cost yet, but all indications are that laser printers are far cheaper to run than the Inkjets.
Improve print quality by selecting "text" (instead of "graphic"), and "1200 dpi" (instead of "600").
Stop current printing by holding down the green "Go" button for two-seconds. This machine is so fast that three copies of your doc. will be printed before you can get into the Word Print Menu to cancel. (You only wanted one copy.)
The Brother HL-L2405W replaced model HL-L2305W. Although the HL-L2405W is the new and improved version, Brother did NOT improve the WI-FI set-up connectivity. Reviewers have identified the set-up as their biggest problem / complaint / frustration. If you don’t have patience and some problem solving skills, this could be a BIG problem in setting this laser printer up.
The Brother HL-L2405W has almost no printed instructions on how to set-up the WI-FI connection. Instead, Brother refers their customer to their website for a USER MANUAL. I found the USER MANUAL to be poorly written and difficult to follow. Since the WI-FI set-up connection is one of the most important feature of this wireless laser printer, I found it mind-boggling that Brother couldn’t hire a competent technical writer to write an understandable USER MANUAL for customers who aren’t computer geeks.
Since the Brother USER MANUAL was gibberish to me, I had to watch several YOUTUBE videos on how to set-up the older model HL-L2305W. I have several devices that are WI-FI connected, but connecting the Brother was the most difficult and frustrating that I’ve encountered.
The syncing of my WI-FI router to the Brother HL-L2405W using the WPS button on the router didn’t work for me. Instead, I had to manually enter my WI-FI password which was a slow, archaic, and arduous process. The Brother accepted my WI-FI password, the WI-FI light glowed steady, and I found the Brother on my System Setting “Printers and Scanners”. I thought I was good to go for printing. I was WRONG.
My computer showed the print job was in process, but the Brother wouldn’t print anything. I double checked everything and everything looked good. I was perplexed. I thought I might have gotten a faulty printer so I was prepared to return it back to AMAZON.
As I went through my problem solving process, I remembered a possible fix. Turn off or unplug the router, the computer, and the Brother HL-L2405W; wait a few minutes and turn on or plug in all the devices. This was my last hope to get it to work. As soon as I plugged in the Brother, the printer made the distinctive “start up” sound and I knew it had worked and I could print.
AFTER going through the arduous set-up, once I got it set-up, the Brother printer has worked flawlessly. I even was able to print from my iPad. I don’t print often so this $120 printer is worth the price. I deducted one-star for the pain and suffering inflicted on me in the WI-FI set-up.
NOTE: There is a printer port in the Brother for a printer to computer USB connection. There is no printer cable included. If you decide to use a printer cable, you will have to go the the Brother website and download a driver, but one of the benefits of a wireless connection is that NO driver is necessary so the Brother can print from different WI-FI devices like laptop, iPhone, iPad, etc.
I only have an android phone to operate it from. Despite the reviews I read on it, I did not have any problem setting it up wth my wifi or my phone. It printed properly straight from the box. It is quiet, fast and the print quality is perty nice as well!!
I use this for printing pages off for my children's school work and also rabbit pedigrees. It works perfect for what I need!!
If your needing an affordable laser printer, don't let the reviews boasting of difficult set up scare you. This little pinter was a breeze and I highly recommend it!

Espero esta compañía continúe ofreciendo estos productos sin caer en al agujero de ofrecer "rentar" tu impresora por una mensualidad, o bloquearle via firmware... Esas marcas se van al demonio :D
Sólo le falta un puerto Ethernet para ser PERFECTA... No es como que me la voy a llevar al parque a imprimir :P
Ahora, si tu laptop no trae lector de CD, vas a tener problemas porque nuevamente, para instalar el controlador, deberás ingresar a la página oficial de EEUU, y en consecuencia te arrojará un error porque tu ubicación, no es en EEUU.
"Ah pero si uso una VPN, seguro que..." no, marca error.
La adquirí porque quería facilitarme la vida, hoy envejecí 45 años del estrés que pasé. Y para los que dicen que "conectada imprime", claro, y un carro sin gasolina igual avanza si lo pones en neutral.... No se conformen, iré a buscar lector de discos externo, y un cable usb para ver si con todo eso lo logro, si no, devolución.
Pésimo producto.
Incluye unidad de tambor y un cartucho para que se pueda empezar a imprimir desde que se instala. Hay que señalar que es reacondicionado por la fábrica pero está bien la verdad.
Lo que no me gustó tanto es que la instalación electrica de mi casa no está tan buena entonces el funcionamiento de la impresora provoca cambios en el voltaje.
Recomiendo.
