Built-In WiFi and Wired Ethernet Print Server was simple to setup using wired Ethernet and internet interface, didn't even require to install any apps or read the owner's manual. Soon after configuration was complete I switched over to WiFi, I love not having another wire and getting able to untether the printer from the PC or network switch. The 250-sheet paper attempt is awesome and easy to refill. The 27 ppm speed means you won't have to wait quite lengthy for your print job to total. Identified this printer on sale at Office Depot for ๳. Paper tray feels flimsy and too flexible. This line of Brother Laser Printers has been receiving fantastic accolades from PC Magazine and winning their Editors Selection Awards. It is considerably much better than a comparable HP LaserJet printer in the exact same class.

I will just give you some hints if you have issue setting up wifi. You have to use a windows pc, otherwise it 'll only be harder. Download the driver from internet site, install driver. There will a dir referred to as wlan_wiz on your desktop, in which you run BrWPrWiz.exe to setup wifi, then select adhoc to configure. After that, you can use the internet interface, http:/롘.168.x.xxx. You'd much better asign a static ip. Immediately after the setup, you can use RAW. If you use LPR, the queue name is HL-2270DW. The web service has complex menu. It, on the other hand, doesn't tell you what the queue name is! It also doesn't allow you to change queue name. What type of printer server is that!!! Softwares included are of course junk. All that you need to have is the driver, which you download from their website. Horrible setup! No wonder newegg only sold it for ๩.

Got it due to the fact of full duplex and wireless connectivity, there's not considerably to say, it just doing what it suppose to do. It comes with a starter toner which is good for only like 600? pages or so? I'm not too sure, but if you print a lot, be ready to invest yet another ๖ for a high yield toner. Not really a con, but the software program it comes with don't work on win 7 Pro I wish the directions had been a small additional user friendly cause it literally took me 15 minutes to figure our how to make it function with my wifi network. If you read this, don't waste your time reading it like I did, just allow WPS on your router and press on the small button below USB cable with a pencil for less than 2 seconds, it will print a confirmation page no matter whether if it connected or not...

Fantastic searching, great size, wonderful functions, pretty quickly and quiet. Impressive to have duplexing in such a little printer; labs at my university have giant Lexmark office printers that don't do duplexing. * Doesn't support WPA2+TKIP.* A cancel button and a uncomplicated LCD display would be nice, but oh well. *Mine came with Firmware v1.03, even though the Brother web site only has v1.02. Some genius put WPA2+TKIP in the HTTP configuration pages as an alternative in the wireless network settings, but it does NOT work with TKIP. All it does is fail to authenticate and print out error TS-06, wasting paper and toner. I had entered every thing properly but it just failed. Lastly, following noticing that the manual and web website only mention AES, I switched my router to TKIP/AES and the printer to AES, and it suddenly worked. Grrr.* I have no electrical troubles in my apartment building with this printer. I feel that's a problem that outcomes from certain combinations of printer models and old wiring in certain dwellings. Maybe different models just draw power differently, so some trigger troubles and some don't.

Nice clean printing. DUPLEX WORKS Fantastic. It works in wireless or usp or ethernet. I followed the directions and set up the wireless with the usb initial and then the wireless. Set-up wireless on 3 Toshiba Satellites, 1 Toshiba netbook, 1 macbook, plus usb to the desktop. I'm happy. It's a small noisy until it goes back to sleep. I have 250 pages printed on the starter toner so far...everyone says it won't last lengthy. I was worried about the wi-fi setup soon after ready horror story reviews filled with network jargon. But I had no trouble.
