Brother HL-3142CW Compact Color Laser is an affordable model for a color laser printer. In the Brother HL-3142CW test, we found that the Brother model is only limited to the most important functions (WLAN, printing), but we were also able to order the laser printer in the Brother HL-3142CW test with automatic duplex. Brother color laser printer also makes it easy to create logos for cover letters. You can also print graphics. The print quality is good and sufficient for most illustrations. You can also print on different formats (envelopes, stationery, labels). The paper cassette offers space for a total of 250 sheets. If you don’t want to give up color printing, the Brother is good with its color quality. In the laser printer color test, we found that maintaining this device is inexpensive.

Brother HL-3142CW

In the Brother HL-3142CW test, Brother printer toner cartridges from color laser printers last approximately 2200 pages for black and white and color expression. The printing speed of either 18ppm or 22ppm in both black and white and the color is fast. This not only makes printing more fun, but it also saves you time. You can set up the Brother color laser printer with a USB cable or even more conveniently by configuring the color laser printer via the WLAN network. In addition, there are other ways to connect the Brother HL-3142CW, such as with the Brother iPrint app. Furthermore, the Brother color laser printer is also environmentally friendly and has a capacity of 2200 pages thanks to the strong jumbo toner in color. In the Brother HL-3142CW test, the Brother color laser printer achieved the lowest follow-up costs in its class.

Compact Color Laser Printer Automatic Duplex Printing

With automatic duplex printing, you can easily create documents at a low cost. When it comes to environmental friendliness, the color laser printer is at the forefront. At the same time, it is resource-saving, low-noise, and low-emission. It was also awarded the EnergyStar for being particularly energy-efficient. The Brother HL-3142CW printer does not come with automatic duplex printing capabilities. However, you can still print double-sided documents by manually flipping the paper over and reinserting it into the printer.

The print quality in the black-and-white area is excellent, which is usually typical for laser printers. Color printing is different. You can conservatively connect the Brother HL-3152CDW, i.e. via USB cable, as well as via LAN and WLAN. In any case, we recommend that you connect the compact color laser printer duplex via the WLAN network. This allows you to take full advantage of the wide range of options this laser printer offers you. With Brother iPrint you can easily print from your mobile phone.

In the Brother HL-3142CW test, the good price/performance ratio completely convinced us.
