Brother HL-L5218DN Driver Download

Brother HL-L5218DN Driver helps the computer identify this monochrome laser printer and send jobs to the correct print queue. After setup, print commands can pass through the selected USB or wired network connection. The HL-L5218DN is a printer-only model, so the software is for printing rather than scanning, copying, or faxing.

Brother HL-L5218DN Specifications

The Brother HL-L5218DN is a monochrome laser printer-only device for office queues, so it does not scan, copy, or fax. Printing comes from an electrophotographic laser engine with 1 GB of standard memory. A one-line display shows 10 double-byte characters or 20 single-byte characters, while panel buttons handle menu work. The machine uses separate toner and drum supplies, not ink tanks or ink cartridges.

Resolution reaches 600 x 600 dpi physically, with best mode raising output to 1200 x 1200 dpi. Single-sided printing runs at up to 48 pages per minute on A4 and 50 pages per minute on Letter. Automatic duplexing is built in, while two-sided output reaches 24 sides per minute, or 12 sheets per minute. The first page comes out in less than 6.7 seconds at 23 degrees Celsius.

Paper input starts with a 250-sheet standard tray for 80 g/m2 plain paper. The multipurpose tray takes 100 sheets, plus envelopes, labels, bond paper, thick paper, and custom stock. Widths from 69.8 to 215.9 mm and lengths from 127 to 355.6 mm fit that feed. Optional lower trays can expand input with LT-5505 or LT-6505 units. Finished pages collect in a 150-sheet face-down tray, while the face-up path delivers one sheet.

Wired connections cover USB 2.0 Type-B and Gigabit Ethernet through 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T cabling. Unlike the HL-L5228DW, this DN model has no wireless LAN, Wi-Fi Direct, NFC, or USB host storage port listed. Power draw is about 670 W while printing, 31 W in ready mode, and 0.5 W in deep sleep. The body measures 373 x 388 x 257 mm and weighs 11.0 kg with supplies installed.
