Brother DCP-L1638W Driver Download

Brother DCP-L1638W Driver helps the computer identify this wireless monochrome laser multifunction printer before print jobs move to the machine. Desktop printing and scanning need proper device communication before the software can reach the printer and flatbed. Copying runs from the printer’s own controls, but correct setup keeps the machine recognized for computer-based tasks. For wireless use, the printer also has to join the correct network before pages and scans move with fewer command or connection errors.

Brother DCP-L1638W Specifications

The Brother DCP-L1638W is a monochrome laser multifunction printer for printing, scanning, and copying. Its electrophotographic laser engine runs with 128 MB of standard memory. Local operation uses a 10-character, two-line LCD and physical keys. This DCP model does not carry fax hardware. Scanning relies on the flatbed glass, so each original has to go on the glass separately.

Print resolution starts at 600 x 600 dpi, and Brother’s best print mode reaches 2400 x 600 dpi. On A4 paper, the machine prints up to 20 pages per minute. Letter output reaches 21 pages per minute. From ready mode, the first page comes out in less than 10 seconds. The scanner glass records up to 600 x 1200 dpi. Copying runs at up to 600 x 600 dpi, with stack copy available for up to 99 pages.

Paper feeds from a 150-sheet standard tray for plain or recycled stock from 65 to 105 g/m2. Brother lists A4, Letter, Legal, Folio, A5, A5 Long Edge, B5 JIS, B5 ISO, Executive, and 16K for that tray. Finished pages collect face down in a 50-sheet output tray. The scanner glass accepts originals up to 215.9 mm wide and 300 mm long.

A nearby computer can connect through USB 2.0 High-Speed. Wired networking uses 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet. Wireless printing runs through standard wireless LAN or Wi-Fi Direct. Infrastructure mode works with IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n, and Wi-Fi Direct uses IEEE 802.11a/g/n. The body measures 385 mm wide, 340 mm deep, and 255 mm high. With supplies installed, the machine weighs 7.3 kg. Power use is about 380 W during printing or copying, 40 W in ready mode, and 1.2 W in deep sleep.
