Brother MFC-L2900dw 4-in-1 laser printer

4-in-1 monochrome laser with 3.5" touchscreen

The Brother MFC-L2900DW combines print, copy, scan and fax in one electrophotographic laser device. It delivers up to 36 ppm black output at 1200 x 1200 dpi with a first page in less than 6.9 seconds. A 3.5 inch touchscreen and 256 MB standard memory support PCL6, BR-Script and PDF 1.7 emulations. Automatic duplex covers printing and single-pass copy, scan and fax.

Upgrade from single-function

Replaces a standalone printer, copier, scanner or fax machine when a single networked unit reduces desk clutter and simplifies supplies. The jump is worth it when monthly volumes approach the 35,000 page duty cycle or when automatic two-sided output cuts paper use. It is not for buyers who need colour output or higher-resolution scanning than 1200 x 1200 dpi on glass.

Connectivity limits of USB 2.0 and dual-band Wi-Fi

Wired Ethernet and dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n give flexible placement, while Hi-Speed USB 2.0 provides direct local connection. The 250-sheet tray plus single-sheet manual feed and 100-sheet output bin suit typical small-office loads. Fax relies on a 33.6 Kbps modem with up to 400 pages memory and forwarding to network folders or email.
