Maintenance-Free and Economical Toner Cartridge
The toner cartridge can print up to 12,000 (Black) and 7,200 (Cyan,
Magenta and Yellow) single-sided pages at 5% coverage. This printer uses
one piece, easy-to-replace toner cartridges.
Universal Paper Cassette
This printer loads paper automatically from the paper cassette. Since the
paper cassette is a universal type, a number of different paper sizes can be
used. Even envelopes can be loaded from the paper cassette. For detailed
paper specifications, see ‘Paper Handling’ in Chapter 3.
Three Interfaces
This printer has a high speed, bi-directional parallel interface, USB and
Ethernet 10/100BaseTX.
If your application software supports the bi-directional parallel interface, you
can monitor the printer status. It is fully compatible with the industry-
standard bi-directional parallel interface.
The Brother network board (NC-4100h) is factory installed in the HL-
2600CN, which enables you to use this printer in the TCP/IP, IPS/SPX,
AppleTalk, DLC/LLC, Banyan VINES, DEC LAT and NetBEUI
environments. Also, many useful utilities, such as BRAdmin Professional
for the administrator and Brother network printing software, are included in
the CD-ROM supplied with the HL-2600CN printer. For setup, see the
Network User’s Guide.
Automatic Interface Selection
This printer can automatically select the bi-directional parallel, USB or
Ethernet 10/100BaseTX interface, depending on the interface port through
which it receives data. With this feature, the printer can be connected to
more than one computer.
