Just use the web interface instead of toggling buttons for deep sleep & continuous toner mode

For Mac users looking to turn on Continuous printing, you can do that through your Mac just as easily. I connected a USB cable (or connect via wifi), Go to Apple Icon > System Preferences > Printers & Scanners, click on 'Brother HL-L2350DW', click 'Options & Supplies' button then 'Show Printer Webpage'. You don't need to login first time here. From here if your device is connected to your network you'll get a web interface of all the printer configurations you normally have to use the buttons to toggle through. Now click 'replace toner' and set it to 'continue'. You can also turn off deep sleep here, under 'auto power off' > 'off'. Took me about 30 seconds from the time I plugged in my usb cable into my mac. You're welcome.

Furious, then very simple answer to setup (ChromeOS).

I have a Chromebook and am in the midst of some grad school courses that require a lot of documentation - thus time for a new printer as well. Specifically, wireless, as all my work is kept in Google Drive. Researched this printer thoroughly, and thought being pretty tech savvy, I could have it up and working in no time. Wrong. The set-up guide is minimal. No, I did not want to have it set up as a "classic" printer, therefore needing another computer attached to it. Just give me GoogleCloudPrint! This is what I found: plug it in, press the buttons that get you to the wifi connection. Connected? Great...find the IP address it has been assigned and type that into your web browser. It will let you set up all options from that site - and definitely change the sleep time so it doesn't hibernate every other minute. Use this guide: Brother makes it hard to find on their site. http://download.brother.com/welcome/doc003013/cv_mfc4510dw_eng_gcp_b.pdf Walk through those steps and you can now print wirelessly. Once I found this guide, I had it printing within minutes. After hours of useless FAQs from GoogleCloud, Chrome, and Brother. Excellent print quality for my needs. Now a very happy student.

Perfect high volume printer for less than $100

I bought the Canon LBP600D or something like that, and it was awful. No mac drivers (we have a mix in our house). Come on Canon, it's 2014, not 2002, every device should work on Mac, Windows, and even iOS and Android! Get with the times. Anyway, I tried to install that and it didn't work on my PC. I went to install it like every other printer I've ever used by plugging it into power and my PC.. wrong! You're supposed to install the software first. Couldn't ever get it to work, and this is coming from someone who used to setup technology solutions small offices such as printers, servers, networks etc. If I couldn't figure that out, then how can the regular non-tech person? Anyway, onto this printer. The Brother HL-L2340DW setup was a breeze. As easier as you could hope for, really. I placed it on the desk, pulled all the shipping tabs out, and protector pieces, installed the toner cartridge very quickly, then READ the instructions where it says to plug the USB into your computer (unlike the stupid Canon). I plugged it in, Windows immediately said "got it dude, you're good to go". Did a successful test print and moved on to downloading the driver software to setup the wireless. (I don't care to use the CD's hardware come with unless absolutely necessary as the driver on the site is much more likely to be updated). I downloaded the software at http://www.brother-usa.com/support/ModelInfo.aspx?R3ModelID=HLL2340DW#.VF0y6fldXch and installed it using the Wireless method (you have to be plugged in so you can easily setup WiFi on it via your computer, this option in the install is just telling the installation how you plan to use it so it can take the next steps accordingly). I setup the wireless, did a test print from my Macbook, success. Opened up my iPhone and went to the print option on a picture, and there it was, the Brother HL-L2340DW. Selected it, pressed print, and out came the print in absolutely perfect quality. This was a very, very, easy to install wireless printer. I highly recommend it based on it's seamless install and print quality alone. If you search you can find replacement cartridges for $17 that offer up to 2600 full page prints. Not bad. The only complain I have is the built in power cable. Most devices will use the standard 3 prong power cable like you find in the back of a typical PC desktop computer. This one is permenantly attached, not making it easy to buy a longer one if necessary. I have about 4 inches of slack after setting it up, thankfully, but not everyone else will be so lucky. My main purpose for this printer was wireless, random printing of documents. However, I bought it for my girlfriend as she's in her grad program and needs to print about 10-50 pages a day and she was waiting in line at school every morning for 30 minutes to use their printer. I believe, in my experience, that a black and white laser printer is the best way to go for any student looking to print a ton of essays, articles, documents etc. You are paying a bit more initially for the printer, but between the volume of prints it is capable of yielding on a single toner cartridge and the efficiency, it'll more than pay for itself! Think about it, up to 2600 prints for $50 (if you choose to buy the main brand toner replacement, or go ahead and buy the knock off brand for $17 and save money, or heck, look up on youtube "how to refill toner for Brother HL-L2340 printer" and you're sure to see some great tutorials and save even more money!) or you can go out and buy a $30 inkjet printer that gets 200-300 prints per cartridge, but how often do you end up replacing that cartridge? About 5x-10x more than a laser printer. Ink cartridges are about $35 for a complete pack. Multiply that by 5 (how many of those you'd go through to achieve the print volume of one toner cartridge for a laser printer) and that's about $175 depending on the inkjet/cartridges. Suddenly you're in the hole, and the laser printer may still have some life left in it's toner. It really depends on what you're trying to accomplish. We have no plans for photos on this, that's what our simple all-in-one is for. Periodic use, never in volume. Leave comments and I'll answer any questions you might have. Good luck! Summary: I love it, it works great, it was easy to setup, and the design is very modern and incredibly compact!

Run firmware update for Google Cloud Print

IF YOU ARE USING GOOGLE CLOUD PRNT: I purchased this for my mother, who uses a Chromebook. Out of the box it WILL NOT register under chrome://devices (after completing its WIFI setup, which was successful). The printer does not show up as a device. I reset the printer and still was not successful. After setting up the WIFI again, I connected to the printer via its IP address (using the Chromebook). I was able to update the printer’s firmware using this wireless connection method (Google Chrome browser). After the firmware update was successful the printer was able to be seen (and registered) in chrome://devices. I was then able to print using Google Cloud Print. This printer has great print quality and superb speed. I was able to print off 12 Ticketmaster tickets, with lots of

Exactly what I wanted

Most color printers you can get nowadays for like $150 end up sucking. My typical success rate when clicking "print" is 50%, and that's when they're new. After a few months, it's more like 10%. And every freaking time I go to print, some fresh hell ensues: Your Typical Color Printer: "I'm sorry, I can't let you print that. You're low on Magenta." Me: "But it's just a black-and-white email." YTCP: "I'm sorry, I can't let you print that. You're low on Magenta." Me: "I just checked the dang Magenta cartridge, and it's like 30% full!" YTCP: "I'm sorry, I can't let you print that. Your Cyan has expired." Me: "That Cyan is like 90% full!" YTCP: "I'm sorry, I can't print that. I'm beat. You try sitting here all day, it's exhausting." Me: "You're about two seconds away from being tossed off the roof." The Brother HL-L234DW, on the other hand, hasn't let me down once. Not once! The AirPrint feature works like a champ. I can print from my iPhone, tablet, laptop...whatever. It was easy to set up, the print quality is great, and I never have to deal with expired or "empty" color cartridges. Simple, awesome. And when I'm not using it, it sleeps there quietly, looking all cute.

Great for money-saving students

am in nurse practitioner school, and it requires a lot of print outs. I researched for a high volume low cost printer. Toner can be found real cheap for this model. That being said, I love how this printer: -easily sets up -wirelessly prints -has short, clear, and concise directions -prints on both sides of paper (this is so nice) -prints VERY FAST (for a homeschooled printer) -has a toner save print mode -I recommend just using this mode all the time to get the maximum number of pages. I don't need fancy graphics but this still prints slide images very nice and distinguishable. -up to 1200 dpi, I use 600 to save on toner. -paper tray is deep and holds most of the ream of paper. I feel likes its a lot more than 250 pages. What I don't like: -deep sleep mode. -If it's asleep you better go wake it up by selecting "ok". I wish it would self wake when the network calls it up to do some printing. -it's loud. -Louder than my dishwasher. The fan just hums menacingly--not for a long time though. And really it's not a big deal as it sits quiet when not printing. -the unit itself is larger than I anticipated albeit measurements are provided. Overall: great for the student/home office. Great so far, right out the box today I've printed around 500 pages, quickly and without jams. I'll update after another 600 pages. But you can't go wrong if you're looking for something that prints PowerPoints, tax forms, scholarly journal articles...etc. You can't print anything color (color=more expensive ink anyway) and this is not the printer for printing pictures.

Awesome Value for the Simplicity

Completely happy with this printer. The wireless is really easy to set up either through WPS or by directly entering your username and password into the printer. Once set up, the printer will automatically reconnect if the connection is ever dropped. Make sure follow the advice from the other reviews that suggest turning on the ink saving option and the option to continue printing through low ink levels. The 700 page starter toner it ships with was able to get over 1000 pages printed by shaking the cartridge around. By 1050, it was starting to get rather light, but still readable. See posted pics for proof. Pic 1 is drum life and pic 2 is page count once the stock toner finally died. Don't hesitate to pick this printer up if you need a solid basic black and white printer. It's Far more economical than the ink jets. Pair it with the off brand high yield toner and you'll be set for quite a while.

Works for foiling,and from phone printing

I bought this for my gf to use as the base print with her foiling kit. It works well. Also the ability to print via phone app is handy.

Printer comparison

The only two differences between the HL-L2340DW and HL-L2360DW, which are the two newest printers from Brother in this category are: 1. The HL-L2360DW has 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet port to connect the router directly into the printer, and the HL-L2340DW does not have this feature. It will connect wireless to the router, which is fine for most people. 2. The HL-L2360DW prints 32ppm b/w while the HL-L2340DW prints 27 ppm b/w. You might never tell the difference. Other than that, all other specs are exactly the same between these two newer printers. Therefore, for most people, the HL-L2340DW will work just fine.

Easy WiFi set-up. No more inkjet scam!!!

Brother HL-L2350DW model. Great product. Set up in minutes. Just pressed the WiFI button on the printer and the WPS button on my modem - and the printer recognized it instantly. Looking forward to saving $$$ by not having to buy inkjet cartridges for my old Epson NX415 - which was constantly telling me that I needed to replace the color cartridges even though I had NEVER printed anything but BLACK. What a sham. No more inkjet scam for me. This Brother laser printer prints in black only (which is what I need), seems to be well made, and fits nicely on my desk (smaller than the old Epson). So far I am a happy customer.
