Brother Monochrome Laser Printer, HL-L5100DN, Duplex Two-Sided Printing, Ethernet Network Interface, Mobile Printing, Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

I just started using the Brother monochrome laser printer, and it’s been awesome! The software quality is solid, making it easy to navigate. Setup was a breeze, and I had it connected to Wi-Fi in no time. The print quality is sharp, and while it’s monochrome, the color accuracy for graphics is impressive. It offers great value for money with fast printing and reliable wireless connectivity. I’d definitely rate it 4.5 out of 5 stars!

I looked at probably a hundred printers before landing on the Brother HLL5100DN. I needed something that could handle a high-volume output without burning a hole in my wallet. Most laser printers seem like a great value...and then you look at the cost of toner. With most printers I researched, I also looked up the cost of toner. Only a few printers stand out from the pack with toner yield and cost– the Brother HLL5100DN is one of them. There is an off-brand toner available for this printer that yields 8,000 pages that costs only $20. I could not find a better cost-to-yield ratio on any printer in this price range, so I purchased this one. A few notes about this printer are in order: 1. It is not a WiFi printer. You must hook this up via a printer cord (to USB) or an ethernet cable. You MUST have one of these hooked up for the printer to work. 2. It is monochrome (it prints black ink only). If you need color printing, it's not for you. 3. It is not a scanner. It's only a printer. 4. It works with Google CloudPrint if it is hooked up to a computer in the aforementioned way. 5. It takes about 15 minutes to set up (including unboxing and driver download). 6. Works on PC and Mac. I set it up on both. Overall, this product is the best monochrome printer for the price. It will give you a ton of prints for a low cost. It's pretty basic, but is awesome in certain contexts. I highly recommend this to anyone in the market for this type of printer!

I thought all printers were wi-fi. This is a heavy and pretty large printer, but it square and fit perfectly in my closet where my router was, so I was able to plug it in. I got it because my old printer did not support direct printing from tablets and phones. That part works really well for me. Duplex printing works great, too. I've also printed shipping labels and envelops using the document tray. It's a really well thought out machine. I like Brother printers over HP because they don't add all this extra software. I could just load the drivers and windows 10 found the printer. Brother printers have letters DNW. D means device printing, N means plugs into a router for network printing and W means it can attach to the network via wi-fi which is good if the printer will not be near an ethernet port. This printer is just DN and that's probably why the price was so good.

I'm using this as a desktop printer in a Mac/PC/Linux corporate environment with other all-in-one printers/copiers and color laser printers on my network. Print speed is fast, but as with just about all laser printers with higher page-per-minute printing capability, you trade a bit of print quality for speed. The print quality is fine and comparable to most faster monochrome laser printers, but doesn't match the near typeset quality of a Canon Imageclass D1650 down the hall. However, the cost per page of this printer is about half of the Canon, so for most business documents, this Brother printer is a good balance of toner cost, print quality, and speed. I have had several other Brother laser printers and they all were good quality and lasted for quite a few years. But if you're looking for the best print quality, check out Canon printers. I have a Lexmark monochrome all-in-one, two HP color laser printers, an HP monochrome all-in-one, and a couple of small Brother desktop printers, and all work well, but the Brother printers are tried and true workhorses for 95% of our printing. Lexmark's interface is overly complicated, the HP all-in-one print queue gets stuck sometimes, and the printing cost of the HP color lasers is high enough to avoid printing all but color documents with them. The up front cost of the Brother HL-L5100DN is low and the long-term cost is also on the lower end for monochrome laser printers.

Fast and reliable thus far. Was snap to integrate into my network. I never often give a five on tech. This one is close. It does click the right boxes. Speed print quality. A bit noisy though. Easy to use even from my tablet and smartphone. Both Android systems. Will be looking to do content share and a good fast printer is great to have. Also no more inkjet. Overall very happy with performance. I had another Brother before too and it did well too.

Très mauvais produit, après 1 mois d'utilisation déjà en panne Toujours dans l'attente d'un dépannage ou un remplacement voir un remboursement

The printer was defective out of the box. Delayed installation precluded finding this out until now. Amazon does not provide a means to handle these situations. Amazon needs to support the quality of the products they sell. Called Brother for support and they said that this printer is not supported by them in Canada. So why is Amazon even selling this model to Canadian customers? Why will they not honour the return of a bad product?

Der Drucker steht im Büro und wird ordentlich beansprucht. Sowohl vom Tonerverbrauch als auch von Verarbeitungsqualität und Lautstärke gibt es nichts auszusetzen, die Einrichtung gelingt mit der mitgelieferten Software einigermaßen reibungslos, kann sich, grade wenn es um Detaileinstellungen geht, aber doch sehr hinziehen.

La calidad de impresión no es la mejor, pero para el uso rudo es perfecta en relación precio-calidad. Imprime por los dos lados, se conecta a la RED y es fantástica de este modo, es configurable desde un navegador accediendo a la IP de la impresora o desde la misma impresora en su menu. Espero que su mantenimiento sea economico que fue por lo que la compre, pero eso será en el futuro que lo pueda decir. Quisiera decirles más pero aun llevo poco de usarla. Lo del empaquetado, me pareció un poco exagerado, venia en una caja más grande y sin acojinamiento así que si lo hacen por la pandemia creo que con que lo saniticen bien es más que suficiente. Cosas a tomar en cuenta: (*) NO es wifi. (*) NO incluye cables de red o USB (*) Para un usuario no experimentado en impresoras en RED puede ser tardado instalarla de esta manera. Pero si te animas, hay muchos tutoriales en internet o leyendo el manual en linea no tendras problemas mientras seas paciente. (+) Imprime de los dos lados (+) Para uso casero con muchos usuarios o una ofcina pequeña, creo que vale mucho la pena. (+) Compatible con Windows, Linux y MacOS sin problemas. Con android mediante la aplicación de brother.

Es una impresora que promete lo que indica gracias
