([store.brother.de](https://store.brother.de/geraete/laser/dcp/dcpl3520cdwe?utm_source=openai))  \n\n- **Compatible / non-OEM toners**: Lower cost alternatives are available. For example, Xerox Everyday toners compatible with this model have standard and high-yield options. ([xerox.com](https://www.xerox.com/en-ie/office/compatible-cartridges/brother-dcp-l3520cdwe/supplies?utm_source=openai))  \n\n- **Accessories**:  \n  \u2022 Transfer belt (BU-229CL) ~50,000 pages. ([store.brother.de](https://store.brother.de/geraete/laser/dcp/dcpl3520cdwe?utm_source=openai))  \n  \u2022 Drum unit (DR-248CL), in the order of 20,000-30,000 page life depending on usage. ([store.brother.de](https://store.brother.de/geraete/laser/dcp/dcpl3520cdwe?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udc4d Pros & \ud83d\udc4e Cons (Based on User Reviews & Testing)\n\nFrom reviews (Tweakers etc.) and specs, here's how the DCP-L3520CDWE stacks up:\n\n**Pros:**\n\n- Quieter and faster than many inkjets at printing mixed text & colour. LED tech helps. ([tweakers.net](https://tweakers.net/productreview/351784/brother-dcp-l3520cdwe.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- Automatically double-sided printing saves paper. ([123ink.ie](https://www.123ink.ie/Offers/Printers/Brother-DCP-L3520CDWE-p4146982.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- Decent input tray size (250 sheets) and output buffer (150 sheets). ([123ink.ie](https://www.123ink.ie/Offers/Printers/Brother-DCP-L3520CDWE-p4146982.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- No major drivers needed if using AirPrint; works well with mobile printing. ([tweakers.net](https://tweakers.net/productreview/351784/brother-dcp-l3520cdwe.html?utm_source=openai))  \n\n**Cons:**\n\n- No automatic document feeder (ADF), so scanning multi-page documents manually is time-consuming. ([123ink.ie](https://www.123ink.ie/Offers/Printers/Brother-DCP-L3520CDWE-p4146982.html?utm_source=openai))  \n- Size: it\u2019s bulkier than a basic desk printer. Weighs ~18.6kg, takes up space. ([store.brother.de](https://store.brother.de/geraete/laser/dcp/dcpl3520cdwe?utm_source=openai))  \n- Ink isn\u2019t cheap: OEM toners are expensive, especially colour XL. Using non-OEM helps, but may have trade-offs in warranty / quality. ([xerox.com](https://www.xerox.com/en-ie/office/compatible-cartridges/brother-dcp-l3520cdwe/supplies?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n## \ud83e\uddd0 How Good Is It Overall?\n\nHere\u2019s how it performs depending on use case:\n\n| Good Fit If You... | Might Be Less Ideal If... |\n|---------------------|----------------------------|\n| Print ~200-800 pages/month, mix of text & colour, want crisp colour occasionally. | Need to scan large multipage documents regularly (due to no ADF). |\n| Want durable prints; worry about ink drying out (LED printers are better in that respect). | Primarily printing photos (inkjets tend to give better photo quality). |\n| Want auto-duplex to save paper. | Want ultra-compact or very lightweight machine. |\n\n---\n\n## \u2705 Final Take\n\nIf you're looking for a robust, versatile colour laser all-in-one, this one is **quite solid**. The features match well with small offices or home offices wanting colour printing without the common issues of inkjet (drying, frequent ink changes).\n\nBut keep in mind the running costs: colour is expensive with OEM toners, so if you do a lot of colour, expect higher per-page costs\u2014unless you go with XL cartridges or good compatible ones.\n\nIf you tell me how many pages you expect to print (mono vs colour vs photos) I can estimate your cost per page and whether it'd make sense for you. Want me to run those numbers for your expected usage?"

([store.brother.ie](https://store.brother.ie/devices/laser/dcp/dcpl3520cdwe?utm_source=openai))\n\nSo yes \u2014 when you buy it new (from Brother, 123ink.ie, or similar retailers), you **do get starter toners**. These are lower-yield than the standard or high-yield ones, but enough to get you started.

VAT, OEM CMY colours around **\u20ac57.50** each.

For instance, 123ink\u2019s own versions are often around **35% cheaper** than Brother originals. ([123ink.ie](https://www.123ink.ie/Toner-cartridges/Brother/search-by-printer-model/DCP-L3520CDWE-p4036730.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## \ud83c\udfea Prices & Availability at Other Dublin/National Stores (Currys etc.)\n\n- **Currys Ireland**: Currently lists the Brother DCP-L3520CDWE for **\u20ac439**. That\u2019s significantly more expensive than 123ink.ie\u2019s **\u20ac307.50**. ([currys.ie](https://www.currys.ie/computing/printers-scanners-and-ink/printers/brother?utm_source=openai))  \n- No obvious other Dublin-based stores came up showing the printer cheaper than 123ink.ie as of right now.\n\n---\n\n## \ud83d\udd04 Is There a Better Deal for a Similar Printer?\n\nIf you're open to similar models, here are some alternatives or considerations:\n\n- A monochrome (black & white) LED all-in-one laser printer would likely be cheaper\u2014but you lose colour printing.\n- Slight variations within Brother\u2019s range: maybe a model without duplex printing, or without both 2.4 & 5 GHz WiFi might be cheaper\u2014but again you lose features.\n- Buying refurbished units might bring down cost, but warranty/condition varies.\n\n---\n\n## \u2696\ufe0f Bottom Line & What to Check\n\n| What To Confirm | Why It Matters |\n|------------------|----------------|\n| If the **box includes the starter toners** | You\u2019ll need to spend extra soon if they're not included |\n| Toner yield & price (OEM vs compatible) | Colour toner especially can become expensive |\n| Warranty & returns policy | Important if going via third-party retailer or buying compatible toners |\n\n---\n\nIf you like, I can check specific listings in Dublin stores (like Harvey Norman, PC World, etc.) to see whether anyone is matching or beating the 123ink.ie price, so you can pick up in person if needed.
