Brother HL-L8350CDW

The Brother HL-L8350CDW color laser printer delivers high-quality text and graphics, along with excellent speed and paper handling, for a micro or small office.

Fast. Excellent paper handling for a micro or small office, or a workgroup. Ethernet. Integrated Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi Direct support.

Photos are slightly subpar for a color laser.

If you need good quality for photos, text, and graphics, take a look at either the Samsung CLP-415 or the Xerox 6500/DN, both of which are Editors' Choice printers. The Xerox printer is a good choice if you need duplexing, and the Samsung printer a...

Brother HL-L8350CDW Review

Great long term investment if you see high printing volumes in your future

Low operating costs

High initial cost

The HL-L8350CDW is a great printer that produces decent text and good graphics. If you don't need the functionality of an all-in-one and print a lot, this is a great and economical choice. If you don't print very much you should look for a model with a...

Brother HL-L8350CDW colour laser printer review

There's nothing remotely flash about this printer as it's styled in unassuming shades of black and cream, designed to slot into your other office furniture without calling attention to itself. Even the control panel on the top surface has been made of...

Brother's latest standalone colour laser printer is a good all-rounder without being exceptional and should appeal to SMEs wanting volume printing at a reasonably high speed and good quality. Printing costs are not especially economical though.

A low-cost, good-quality A4 laser – but slow colour prints are a drag

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Good quality, unexpensive, double-side printing

Quite fast. Color printer quality is very good, though not excellent. But it my view, this model bears a reasonable compromise between quality and cost. Printing quality is sufficient for advertisement material and for 2D plot of scientific data. Even...

Provides drivers for Linux

Probably to reduce the cost, they hired a flock of trained parrot in support. The parrot that I dialed up did not know anything but "we do not support unix". Argument that I look at the piece of software with copyright Brothers Inc did not impress the...

Would like sone info on toner cost price per page

What's a good color laser printer that's affordable to use. I have a new Brother mono laser and really like the brand. It has very common toner cartridges so I feel free to print. Just looking for an affordable color laser to use when color is needed....

Would like sone info on tiner cost. After allot of inkjet printers that cost so much per page. I end up using it so sparingly that they dry up. So its total waste. Seem to prefer Brother printers, had good luck with their mono printers.

Great!

This is a great printer. I've owned a number of Brother color laser printers in the past (started out with an HL-2400C back in the day). I do not look to any other brand when shopping for printers (I currently own an HP color laser also but Brother is...

Fast startup, great networking and driver support. Easy to setup and use in a network environment. Great color quality and flexible ranges of supported papers (including gloss). Removing jams on occasion when they pop up are easy with front and rear...

Uses lots of power on startup. You'll want this sucker on it's own dedicated circuit. I had this connected to a APC UPS (all by itself connected to just the line filtering plugs). During startup the UPS's alarm would sound as it was exceeding 1800...
