Brother HL-2240 Toner Cartridges

The Brother HL-2240 is just another monochrome laser printer in a long line of basic machines. Though it has pretty much all of the same features as the previous models in this series, it does have the ability to print a bit faster at 24 pages per minute opposed to 21 pages per minute. Though these speeds may not be overly impressive, they will certainly add efficiency to a small or home office.

There is a built-in memory of 8 MB, which is more than previous models. It has a 200 MHz processor that helps speed up the transfer rates from computer to printer. It is connected via a standard USB port, and the lack of ethernet makes it non-network accessible. This will certainly be a hindrance for offices that wish to have multiple users able to print to the same unit simultaneously.

Because it is a monochrome unit, only one Brother HL-2240 toner cartridge is necessary, and it is filled with black printer toner. This can last for as many as 2,600 pages before running too low to continue printing. At this point, replacement toners will be needed and can be found online or in stores. They are easy to find and simple to install. Many toner supply stores offer recycling programs as well, which allow third party vendors to sell remanufactured Brother HL-2240 toner cartridges. Though they are less expensive than brand new printer toner, they still perform just as well.

As well as a decent output rate, this device can print documents with clear, crisp and professional quality. The Brother HL-2240 toner has the ability to reach a maximum resolution of 2400x600 dpi, which is actually higher than competing models. Overall, the HL-2240 is popular amongst small business owners because of its simplicity and reliability that will keep daily tasks running smoothly.
