Brother DCP-L3510CDW Colour Laser Printer - All-in-One, Wireless/USB 2.0, Printer/Scanner/Copier, 2 Sided Printing, A4 , Small Office/Home Office , UK Plug

The best printer ever! I’m so glad I got this model, it was easy to setup and works perfectly. It’s quiet, fast, and accurate. Having come from an HP inkjet, this is light years ahead and more economical. I was spending a lot on ink before whereas now the laser cartridges last for a long time. Wireless printing works great too. Highly recommend this printer.

This is a truly amazing printer, and considering the technology that lies within it, it really is quite remarkable value. The replacement toner cartridges however are less remarable, being horrendously expensive, but even they are technological marvels.To slightly offset the eye watering cost of these consumables, the printer arrived complete with all four cartriges, brand new (protective packing had to be removed from each one individually before use) and therefore not partially filled (according to the on board display, one function of which is to inform on the condition of the cartridges). This of course is the trick otherwise performed by many printer manufactureres, who provide cartridges with only a small amount of toner present.(It's interesting to note that take away the cost of a set of new replacement cartridges - which is what this purcase essentially was, then the printer itself costs no more than a good inkjet printer!).On receipt I immediately made the printer work, and really work. I prepared a two page document complete with a dozen small colour photographs and a lot of text. I sent it to the printer as a two-sided document. There was admittedly a pause whilst the printer formatted all the images, but within seconds the page emerged.(With a duplex print, it is amusing to watch the page start to emerge into the output 'shelf', then pause and withdraw again into the innards while it flips the page to do the second side. For all the world as if the printer suddenly remembered it hadn't finished!).The output is good, really good. Text is pin sharp and colour images of any sort clear and vibrant (dependant on the quality of the originals).Whilst tempted to simply initially 'cable up' the printer to my PC, I elected to go the whole hog and attempted to wirelessly network the two devices. It couldn't have been easier - once I'd worked out how to manage the keypresses on the display panel (Hint, keep pressing!).I have not used the scanner yet, so cannot comment. Similarly the fax facility, but it's unlikely I will ever use that.So, a purchase I couldn't be more pleased with and a genuinely excellent printer to boot.The one thing I don't care for is the placement of the control panel, it looks as if it simply waiting to be bashed. I do however accept it is a difficult thing to design into the otherwise sleek lines of the 'box'.One word of warning; in its box, the machine weighs a ton! A staggering 18.6kg! Enough to test the patience of even the most obliging Amazon driver!

I already have a trusty Brother laser printer which i've had for years. It's done masses of printing and hasn't put a foot wrong. I wouldn't even be buying this printer were it not for the fact that my daughter needs the colour option for her school work. Given my Brother laser has been the best and most long lived printer i have ever owned ( and i've owned a few) i didn't actually consider another brand. I selected this simply because it was a Brother and on the functions i require.The printer arrived safely in it's original box well cushioned in frames of polystyrene. I ordered it from the UK to be delivered in France. Happily it came with a continental plug rather than the uk one so for me that was great ( i despise rewiring plugs!)The downside was it came with instructions in german...not so good. However i persevered and continued with the installation. There were numerous bits of blue tape securing things. These were easily removed. It came with 4 preinstalled colour cartridges which required the guard taking off (HINT move the yellow tabs to the side to release the cartridge and they pull out easily).With all this done i powered up. The touch screen is good although i'd like to see a firmer screen more akin to a modern smart phone. This screen has a bit of give but it's fine. Navigation is easy.You aren't provided with a cable to connect it to the computer but i have about a thousand of them collected over the years so not a problem. My plan is to have this wifi anyway so i'll only use that if i have to.A google search on the matter advised me to download the "brother printer app". I'm on android and this was quickly found on PLAY. Then i had to just follow the instructions and link up the two. This wasn't intuitive and i would not have worked it out without the internet instructions. The info was easy to find so don't be put off by that. The app is easy to navigate and with 10 minutes of powering up i had my first wifi colour print out in my hand. The quality of the print is pretty good. All that remains is to see how well the cartridges last.ProsMinimal junk in the boxEasy to set up based on simple internet instructionsGood print qualitySturdy build qualityConsLack of instructions in english (easily solved with internet search)Lack of cable to link to PC but as wifi this is largely a moot point

A couple of months since purchased have past. Unit was easy to setup once you get all the packaging and tape removed. Inserting tomers also without any issue. It connects to my Apple based network without issue and printing is easy. Quality if exactly what i needed and this has so far had about 100 pages printed and all look great. Very happy as a previous Brother printer owner to move at home to a Colour Laser instead of Inkjet. If you print infrequantly like I do and were frustrated at inkjet drying out etc, this is your best option in my opinion.

This is an excellent colour laser printer. Unlike many other brands, it accepts third-party toner cartridges, even after updating the firmware to the latest v1.2 in Feb 2025 (I used TONTINA TN248 black without problems). Printing is crisp and clear, deep blacks and colours. It prints double-sided and also easily accepts sheets of labels or lightweight card. The manual feed slot is easy to use. It also has an instant photocopy function (B&W or colour) and can scan to your PC or a network location. I like the fact that it does not have a multi-sheet feeder for the scanner, an option I never use, which cuts down on bulk. It is still big and heavy, but I've seen bigger; build quality is robust. Criticisms: Speed is okay but not impressively fast. Configuring scan-to-PC or scan-to-network is fiddly and there is no scan-to-USB option. Highly recommended.
