Brother HL-1211W Specifications

The Brother HL-1211W is a single-function monochrome laser printer. It does not include scanner, copier, or fax hardware, which separates it from Brother DCP and MFC models. Printing uses an electrophotographic laser engine with 32 MB of memory. Status lights handle basic panel feedback instead of an LCD screen. The India support listing pairs this wireless model with a TN-1020 toner cartridge, and Brother lists a separate drum unit on the same consumables page.

On A4 paper, the printer runs at up to 20 pages per minute. Letter output is rated at 21 pages per minute. From ready mode, the first sheet comes out in less than 10 seconds under Brother’s stated 23°C and 230 V test condition. HQ1200 technology raises processed output resolution to 2400 x 600 dpi. Automatic duplex hardware is not part of this model, so two-sided printing depends on manual page turning.

Paper loads from the front tray, which holds up to 150 sheets of 80 g/m2 plain paper. Finished pages exit face down into a 50-sheet output tray. The main feed is listed for plain and recycled paper from 65 to 105 g/m2. It accepts A4, Letter, Legal, Folio, A5, A5 long edge, B5, and Executive paper. Supported paper length runs from 148 to 355.6 mm.

A nearby computer can connect through Hi-Speed USB 2.0. Wireless printing uses IEEE 802.11 b/g/n in infrastructure or ad-hoc mode. Security options include WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK, with AOSS and WPS available during wireless setup. The body measures 340 x 238 x 189 mm and weighs 4.6 kg with consumables installed. Average power use is about 380 watts while printing, 40 watts in ready mode, and 0.7 watts in deep sleep.
