Key Advantages

The Brother HL-2140 printer offers several key advantages. Its high print speed of up to 20 ppm enhances productivity in busy office environments. The 2400 x 600 dpi resolution provides crisp and professional-quality prints. Its compact and lightweight design saves space, making it suitable for small workspaces. The printer’s straightforward USB connectivity simplifies installation and daily use. Utilizing a high-yield toner cartridge reduces frequency of replacements and lowers the overall cost per page. It supports various operating systems, including Windows and Mac, increasing its versatility.

Limitations

Despite its advantages, the HL-2140 has limitations. It is a monochrome printer, so it cannot print color documents. It lacks network connectivity options such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi, limiting use in shared office environments. The paper input capacity is relatively small, with a tray that holds up to 250 sheets, which may require frequent refilling in larger print jobs. The printer cannot perform multifunction tasks like scanning or copying, thus requiring additional devices for those functions. It also lacks advanced finishing options such as duplex printing. The model has been discontinued, which may make obtaining consumables and support more difficult.
