*My question was "*Has anyone installed an HL-L2340DW printer? If so I

We keep getting further from answering that. Last week I began with a
On this list it happens all the time, including questions and answers. :)
Also this list is not:
"Customer Service Center"
"CERTIFIED Center of Excellence"
:)
phone call to Brother Tech Support where the only answer was in an
e-mail follow-up. The guy I was talking to couldn't admit, after going
off to investigate, that they had no driver, their response would be by
e-mail:
"Description of Solution 200000004054 *
Currently, Linux support is not available for your Brother machine.
For current support information in regards to Linux you may visit

That shows that they offer Linux support for many printers but none in
this series.
I really didn't want to repeat everything I've tried over the last week,
just wanted to know what someone else did. Apparently I am the only one
who bought this printer. I'm not sure I'm happy with it but it is
working wirelessly as advertised.
I just have to decide if it's a keeper. In the mean time I've ordered
parts to restore the one it was to replace which looks more like a
keeper every day.
Thanks to all for the help,
Bob
Why not study the product and inquire *before* purchase?
Is the price priority or should it be something "else", it is up to each to
decide.
Not that I recommend, but few *details* catches the eye, and it is applicable to any
printer of any manufacturer:
- HL-L2340DW:
a) Wireless 802.11b/g/n, Hi-Speed USB 2.0, Wi Fi Direct
b) 1-line LCD display
- HL-L2380DW:
a) Wireless 802.11b/g/n, Hi-Speed USB 2.0, Ethernet, Wi Fi Direct
b) 2.7" Color TouchScreen Display
c) Copying and high-quality color scanning

Whether a particular model actually has the Ethernet should always carefully check.
Because of the lack of the Ethernet, *any* network-capable printer is just a good joke.
Always has to go with the Ethernet, and only then with the WiFi, NFC, etc.
In this way, it "should" be possible to access WebUI management without hassle.
Is it so with the Brother, do not ask me.
1-line LCD display!? :)
Welcome to the year 2015.
Nor I can not comment on what is the *actual* support for "Linux".
BTW Linux is just a kernel. :)
How many there are technical illiteracy in the world it is actually amazing.
Besides the Brother is neither the first nor the last manufacturer of printers.
