Key Advantages

The DCP-L2520DW excels with high printing speeds of up to 30 ppm, making it suitable for busy offices. Its wireless connectivity offers convenient printing from multiple devices without cables. Automatic duplex printing improves efficiency and lowers operational costs by saving paper. The device's multifunctionality combines printing, scanning, and copying into one unit, reducing equipment footprint and expense. With a 50-sheet ADF, users can automate batch scanning and copying tasks, saving time. The printer also supports mobile printing solutions such as AirPrint and Google Cloud Print, increasing versatility.

Limitations

The printer is limited to monochrome output, which restricts its use for color document needs. It lacks advanced touchscreen controls, instead relying on a basic 2-line LCD which may be less intuitive. The maximum input capacity of 250 sheets might not suffice for high-volume print environments. There is no fax function integrated, which could be a drawback for some office setups. The scanner resolution maxes out at 600 x 2400 dpi which may not meet high-detail scanning requirements. Its reliance on traditional toner cartridges can have a higher cost per page compared to some newer technologies.
