Common questions
How do I print on both sides?
Use the driver’s manual two-sided option and follow its paper-reinsertion prompts. Automatic duplex instructions in the shared guide apply to other listed models.
Why does the manual mention HL-L2460DW?
Brother shares the full guide across several models. Check Related Models before using a control-panel or networking procedure.
Do I replace the drum with every toner cartridge?
They have separate replacement procedures. Follow the printer’s supply indication and the instructions for that part.
