Brother HL-L8260CDW - Laserdrucker

easy use and non expensive service , good printing quality

Purchased August 2024, has had light domestic use, it has worked well, without problem until yesterday 31st May 2026. Now, when power is switched onthre is motor sound but machine does not power up for use. Error light flashes orange and error code 08 shows. What can be done to get machine repaired or replaced as it should last longer than it has

Sometimes I use Windows 11, but most of the time I use Linux. It was a breeze to set up networked on both operating systems. Print quality and speed are superb.

Bought this printer in promotion but even paying full price i would be more than happy. This printer works just fine in Linux (Archlinux, CUPS) and the other important element for me when deciding whether to buy or not was the fast that the initial cartridges (toners) will last me forever, unlike the cheaper printers where you get starter toners that last some funny 500-1000 pages..

This is the third one I have bought in 18 months. Great output quality, great functionality but very short lifespan. First printer, lightly used failed with a hardware fault after about 1 year, never got past the original cartridges. The second one failed after 6 months with a similar problem but to be fair was second hand refurbished. I am hoping printer No. 3 will last a bit longer
