According to our printer expert
The Brother DCP-L2540DN was designed to make printing, scanning, and copying easy and quick. This is reflected in the impressive features. With a print speed up to 30 pages per minute and optional automatic duplex printing, you'll never have to wait too long for your prints and you'll even save paper too. Do you often copy and/or scan documents? That's no problem either. The printer supports high-resolution scanning and can make copies at 26 pages per minute. The automatic document feeder (ADF) makes life easier for you. The printer has a compact design and fits on every desk. This makes the printer a good choice for everyone who prints a lot of documents and doesn't need color prints. The L2540DN features a network connection, so you can connect the printer to your router.

This printer quickly and easily does what it was purchased for. Two-sided black and white printing at a rapid pace. Too bad that no printer cable was included with delivery, because it is NOT a WiFi printer, but that problem was quickly remedied.

I chose this printer using Coolblue's handy selection aid. The relatively low price for the attractive package of options was the deciding factor.
The device is larger than a standard printer, but you also get a lot in return. For example, it can automatically print recto-verso, which makes it easier for you to choose it faster and which certainly benefits the environment.
The bypass tray at the top was a requirement for me and it works just fine. Scanning RV via this road would have been nice, but unfortunately that is reserved for a more expensive class.
The software that comes with you is useful for scanning. Control center 4 does the job just fine. You can scan as pdf, jpeg, email or ocr (text document).
In terms of speed, the printer is really up to par. A big difference compared to inkjet, in the healthy middle bracket of laser printers.
He's not really quiet. If you don't like to cause neighbor noise in dense buildings, it's best not to print late at night. Not that it's extremely loud now, but because of the speed I'm afraid you have to take that into account. This will probably not be a problem for companies.
Contrary to what is claimed, you can turn it into a WiFi printer. I myself have a WiFi router to which I connect the printer with a network cable. This also gives me wireless access to the printer. If you read the apple site on it, it is also supported for airprint in this way. Tested it myself with the tablet and yes, wireless printing without problems and even without having to install extra programs. So a feasible card!
The printer was also delivered very quickly and in perfect order by Coolblue, as we have been used to for years.
