It can create high-resolution color prints with Brother DCP-L3510CDW Toner Cartridges and has an automated duplexer for printing on both sides. This multifunction printer is designed to be both sleek and modern-looking and is intended for small offices with low printing requirements.

It's a huge machine that weighs over 21kg and measures 589 x 523 x 521 mm, so it won't fit into a small space like an inkjet. However, it comes with Brother DCP-L3510CDW Toner Cartridges that should last for roughly 1000 pages before needing to be replaced. You don't have control over when to replace cartridges in most current printers, so even if print quality appears to be adequate, printing will stop until you install the one that has 'run out' with the new Brother DCP-L3510CDW Toner Cartridges.

On a Windows laptop, installing the DCP-L3510cdw proved to be a problem. The entire process took far too long, and the iPrint & scan software that resulted was scarcely worth the wait. Because there is no option to scan to USB, you'll probably use it mostly for scanning. Choosing how you want to connect the printer is part of the setup, and setting Wi-Fi is considerably easier than trying to input a password using the printer's LCD panel and up/down keys.

The L3510cdw isn't a speed demon, with a stated speed of up to 18 pages per minute (ppm). Even at the 16ppm, it achieved in testing, though, it's fast enough for most home offices, where papers are typically only a few pages long. If the documents contain color, the speed lowers to around 15ppm, and if you print on both sides, the pace drops to around 6-7ppm. Basic text documents produced from mobile devices appeared almost instantly, just as if they had been printed from a laptop. The scanner is really good, and scanning an A4 sheet at 200dpi takes only a few seconds. Wait times will be a little longer if you require better resolution, but even at 200dpi, the quality is more than adequate. Textbooks and other thick materials can be accommodated by extending the hinges. Make a statement with vibrant business documents.

Though, the wireless printer may not be the best option for all scenarios because it lacks faxing capabilities. It also doesn't let you print envelopes except one at a time from the manual feed slot. If you have a high monthly print volume, this might not be the ideal option to satisfy your needs but, the DCP-L3510dcw would suffice if you don't require the highest print quality and only require a printer that can easily handle the demands of a home office, printing a mix of mono and color documents for both work and education.
