Brother MFC‑L2800DW Monochrome Laser Multifunction Printer

Brother MFC‑L2800DW Monochrome Laser Multifunction Printer

If you're looking for a reliable, automated office "multi-tool" that prints, scans, copies, and faxes quickly, economically, and with minimal maintenance, the Brother MFC‑L2800DW Monochrome Laser Multifunction Printer deserves a top spot on your list.

This is an A4 mono laser all-in-one printer with a print speed of 32 pages per minute, automatic duplex printing, a 50-sheet ADF, and 5 GHz Wi‑Fi. It’s designed for home offices and small businesses that need uninterrupted productivity and low cost per page.

Why Choose a Monochrome Laser?

• Speed & durability: Laser technology delivers consistent quality even with large-volume printing.

• Lower consumable costs: The toner yields thousands of pages per cartridge, and the separate drum unit (DR-2510) lasts up to 15,000 pages.

• Professional sharpness: Up to 1,200 × 1,200 dpi resolution, ideal for invoices, documents, and order forms.

• No dried-up ink: Toner doesn’t dry out, even with long periods of inactivity — unlike inkjets.
