The Brother HL-L2300D's small size and excellent paper handling—with a 250-sheet tray, manual feed, and duplexer—should be at the top of your list for a personal monochrome laser printer.

Compact design, good printing speed and quality
Very limited connectivity (no WiFi or Ethernet and it doesn't come with a USB cable)
The Brother HL-L2300D is a good buy for the home office that needs a small, affordable printer that spits out monochrome text documents at high rates of speed. We found its overall text quality to be quite good relative to its competitors ....

Is this affordable printer perfect for the SOHO market?
Double-sided printing ; Fast and quiet ; Cheap price and low running costs
USB only ; Can't print from mobile devices ; No bells or whistles
The HL-2300D is a fast and affordable entry-level laser with low running costs.

- Good for what it is intended for. If I want a photograph printed out I will go to staples or something and have them print it out on their huge expensive amazing printers.
- So far it is working fine - Only requires a single toner cartridge, which isn't too expensive - Good for printing out documents and receipts
- Didn't come with a USB cord, and asked for one during the setup

This model does not have a wired ethernet connection. Connects to Computer only via USB. You can use as a shared network printer on Windows 7 or above using homegroups. Not ideal but does work.
