The HL-L2390DW Series are compact and affordable devices for the home or small office that doesn’t require color printing or copying.
Features
Standard paper handling starts with a 250-sheet tray and a single-sheet manual bypass. There are no optional paper trays. Both trays handle up to legal-sized (8.5″ x 14″) paper. The output capacity is 100 sheets (face down). Duplex printing is supported.
Each device has a maximum monthly duty cycle of 15,000 pages, but Brother recommends printing up to 2,000 pages per month.
The flatbed color scanning function supports scan to email, to file, to image, to OCR, and to Microsoft SharePoint. Cloud scanning is supported on the HL-L2395DW. Cloud services include Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, Microsoft OneDrive and OneNote, and Box.
Both devices ship with a 1,200-page standard yield toner. Brother offers a high-yield (3,000-page) aftermarket toner cartridge. We’ve calculated the cost per page based on the high-yield toner and prices on Brother Mall’s site. The cost per page is approximately 3.5 cents, which is affordable for a small business. Aside from using the high-yield toner, businesses can take advantage of the duplexing features to help save on printing expenses.
There is a one-year limited warranty for both devices.
