It's black but it works
I don't like black appliances. Black is the color of malevolence. Black sedans. Black leather jackets. Black Harleys and black trucks. But I returned the Xerox printer because it didn't work right and it didn't work right on purpose, they made it that way. This Brother, you plug it in, you run the install, and it works. It's frighteningly cheap and lightweight but it works.

    Not wireless.
    This one is not the wireless one. I am so mad people who have left a review on this one saying they can us their phone or table reviewed the wrong one. Now I am having to return it. What a pain. This is the very reason I don't order on Walmart website it is so confusing.

    Does not come with necessary cable
    This printer does not connect to wifi which is fine but it also doesn't come with the usb cable to connect to a computer. Nowhere in the start up instructions does it mention that you need to connect it to the computer, let alone that you need to buy a separate cord. Annoying.

    Basic printer that gets the job done
    I've only had this printer for a few weeks, and only printed about a dozen pieces of paper, but so far so good. No problems at all with set up. Work perfectly on the first try. It's very basic without many fancy features, but I just needed a printer for simple black and white documents.

    So far so good.
    Since I hardly ever use a printer my ink jet printer seemed always to be clogged whenever I wanted to use it. I am told this laser printer will always work no matter how long it sets without use. It was easy to set up and I used it once and it works!

    Great for the price
    this printer was the only thing I could order under $400 during the pandemic. it apparently has been out for over 10 years and is not supported anymore. Will not work with my smartphone and the directions say that you have to have at least a Windows 98 computer. I think that tells you how long this computer has been out. other than that and ordering the correct cord separately to attach to my desktop, it is printing quite well. we all know that the ink that comes with any printer is not going to last very long so I did order extra ink toner.

    Brother HL-L2300d Compact, A Solid Workhorse !
    A good solid printer. The fact it does not print in color is a bonus for me. Once I got it connected to my wireless router, my two phones and two tablets, Linux and Windows PC's all worked without fail. I can unplug it, or loose power and when it's all back up, running, everything is just as it was before the power loss. A solid work horse always waiting for you . I hate printers, every printer I ever bought has ended up crushed to pieces in the driveway after I smashed it with my foot.

    No dried up ink!!
    My printing needs are simple and infrequent. I ordered this because it's the same printer I use at work. It's easy to use, only prints in black so I don't have to worry about replacing a particular color to keep it working. Best of all, no more worrying about ink cartridges becoming dry or clogged, it simply works every time! As other reviews have stated, remember to buy the cable to connect it.

    Great Printer for home office
    This is a great printer for the price. Simple to use and easy to set up. Keep in mind it is black and white only. It prints quickly with great quality. You will need to purchase the usb cord to go between the printer and your computer. The instructions tell you what to buy.

    Great Copier
    A simple printer that gets the job done. It's a perfect printer for school work or anything you don't mind printing only in black ink. I especially like the fact that I can control the ink level (either dark or light copies). A great price for a great copier.

    Bummed. Requires a specific usb cord to connect to the computer and doesn't come with it! Separate purchase that I am still waiting on because I can't pick it up in the store. So I've had it for two weeks and haven't been able to use it yet.

    I'm happy
    I don't print in color, and use only 8 1/2 by 11 paper, so this fits my needs entirely. Over the long run, price per page to print will be very low. It's fast. Print quality is excellent, and it can print two pages per sheet without needing the paper flipped and reinserted.
