Review on Brother HL-L5200DW Monochrome Laser Printer with Wireless Networking, Mobile & Duplex Printing, Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready by Kevin Stephan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very Affordable Great High Spread Dual Tray Printer

I use this duplex printer for 2/3 notarized documents and Mixed 1/3 legal size paper. It works incredibly fast and prints well. My papers must be legible and not marked on the body or side of the paper. This printer is a replacement for a Brother 5150 dual tray printer which has given me over 500,000 pages. I print 2500-7500 pages per month and need a reliable printer. This printer was easy to set up over my secure Wi-Fi network and I use it on multiple PCs and Apple computers as well as my iPhone for printing. The Dual Tray comes with 500 and 250 page compartments. This is perfect for me given the ratio I'm printing, and the LED screen makes it very easy to set the paper size for the tray. It worked for me within 30 minutes. The Brother toner replacement is excellent but costs around $100. I use aftermarkets which are usually around $20. However, with aftermarkets, you have to accept that some of them will either fail or deliver poor quality. So always have a spare when you NEED to print. Brother cartridges have never let me down but just aren't worth the money given the amount I print. I would get 50,000-70,000 prints on my 5150 drums, but I'm not familiar with this model yet. I will update if there are any problems.

Pros
  • FLEXIBLE CONNECTIVITY: Connect via wireless or Gigabit Ethernet network interfaces and print wirelessly from your mobile device (2)
Cons
