In single laser printers, the Brother HL-L5200DW is ideal for heavy-duty printing in small or micro-offices. Its benefits include exceptional speed, excellent output quality (represented by plain text), good standards and excellent paper capacity, a wide range of wired and wireless connectivity options, and low operating costs. Paper handling is one of the advantages of the printer. The automatic duplex printer has become standard and can be printed on both sides of a sheet of paper. The maximum operating cycle per month is 50,000 pages, which can be fixed for heavy-duty use. The standard paper capacity is 300 sheets, between a 250-page main tray and a 50-page multifunction feeder. Optional 250-sheet trays and 520-sheet trays are available, with a maximum paper capacity of 1,340 sheets and two additional 520-sheet trays. The printer offers more paper capacity (standard 570 sheets), and you can add optional trays for up to 1,610 sheets. However, for most small and small offices, the printer should handle more than enough paper. the overall output quality of the Brother HL-L5200DW was slightly above average, including graphics and average photos above the text level and slightly below the standard level. Graphics are sufficient for any internal business, although I’ll take a closer look before distributing the PowerPoint handout. The printer renders fine lines well on dark backgrounds and poorly distinguishes similar shadows. There is also a problem printing dark text on a dark background. The Brother HL-L5200DW is connected to a PC via a USB cable or to a local network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. It can also connect to compatible devices via WiFi Direct via a retracted direct connection. It supports Google Cloud Print, works with the Brother iPrint and Scan apps, and Cortado Workplace, and is compatible with AirPrint and Mopria to help print from iOS and Android devices.
