Brother HL-L2460DW Drivers & Software

If you need to reinstall or repair the software for the HL-L2460DW, start with the official Brother support route for this exact model and operating system. Avoid third-party driver-download sites.

What to do for the HL-L2460DW

1. Treat the HL-L2460DW as a print-only model; do not install or troubleshoot scanner software.
2. For Windows, use Brother EasySetup, the Full Driver & Software Package or the Printer Driver currently offered for the selected operating system.
3. For macOS, do not search for a Brother Mac printer driver: Brother states that a Mac printer driver is not provided for this machine; use AirPrint.
4. This model supports USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct.

Choose the connection you are actually using

The verified computer/network interfaces for the HL-L2460DW are USB, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi Direct.

• USB: For a USB installation problem, test a direct computer-to-printer connection before introducing hubs or network discovery into the diagnosis.
• Wi-Fi: Confirm that the printer is already connected through the intended wireless setup before treating failure to discover it as a driver problem.
• Ethernet: For a wired installation, confirm the printer is connected to the intended network and that the computer can reach that network before reinstalling software.
• Wi-Fi Direct: Keep a direct printer-to-device connection separate from normal router-based Wi-Fi when checking discovery and queue problems.

Do not troubleshoot scanning on this model

The HL-L2460DW is a print-only printer and does not contain a scanner. Scanner utilities, scan drivers and missing scan functions are therefore not part of the driver troubleshooting path for this model.

If the installer cannot find the HL-L2460DW

1. Confirm that the support page and installer are for the exact HL-L2460DW.
2. Confirm that the operating-system version selected on the manufacturer’s support page matches the computer.
3. Confirm that the printer is reachable through the connection method you are actually trying to install.
4. If a failed attempt created an incomplete or duplicate printer queue, remove only that failed queue. Do not delete a working queue unnecessarily.
5. Return to the official model support page and use the package or setup route currently offered for that operating system.

After a Windows or macOS update

Check the official HL-L2460DW support page again before reinstalling old software. The manufacturer’s currently supported package or built-in operating-system route can change after an OS update.

When reinstalling the driver is probably not the fix

If a printer-generated page is already defective, troubleshoot print quality or hardware first. If the HL-L2460DW works from another computer or device but not from this one, focus on the affected computer’s queue, software, permissions and application before changing the printer itself.
