Product Details:

If you want a reliable mono multifunction printer at an affordable price, you’re looking at it.

The Brother DCP-L1630w will suit home and home office users who don’t print often but want a compact mono printer with basic scanning and copying capabilities. It is a small, compact, and efficient multifunction printer that produces crisp black-and-white documents (up to 2400 x 600 dpi) at up to 20 pages a minute.

Released in 2024, the DCP-L1630w addresses many drawbacks of the printer it replaces (the DCP-1610W). Most importantly, wireless connectivity has improved — the DCP-L1630w now supports Wireless Direct, Apple AirPrint, Mopria and Brother Mobile Connect.

While the newer model has more memory and a faster processor, the form factor and recommended retail price remain the same. The newer printer is considerably heavier (but weighs less than 12 kg).

While the DCP-L1630w also copies and scans, there is no automatic document feeder (ADF) to facilitate multipage jobs — you’ll have to do it manually, page by page. Automatic double-sided (duplex) printing is another no-go. The paper tray accepts up to 150 sheets and handles 65-105 gsm plain and recycled paper.

The recommended print volume is up to 500 pages a month, but the cost per printed page is relatively high compared to other laser printers. With your purchase, you get a starter-size toner cartridge that will output up to 700 pages. When you need a refill, you’ll require a Brother TN1170 toner cartridge (good for up to 1,000 pages). A cheaper alternative to a genuine cartridge is a Brother compatible TN1170 toner cartridge.
The toner and drum unit are separate, and the drum unit won’t need replacing until you have printed up to 10,000 pages.

Features:

  • An economical and efficient multifunction mono laser printer — print, scan, and copy (no fax)
  • Easy to install and use, with a compact design to fit small spaces
  • Good print quality with fast print speed at 20 pages per minute (ppm)
  • Outputs clear and sharp 600 x 1200 dpi (colour and mono) scans, with scan to email, image, file, and Sharepoint options
  • Front-loading 150-sheet paper tray for A4 to B5 plain or recycled paper, 65-105gsm
  • Separate drum unit and toner cartridge and availability of third-party compatibles save on replacement costs
  • Recommended monthly print volume of up to 500 pages
  • 48-month warranty with the use of genuine Brother consumables

When to expect delivery:

Get your order fast! Place it before 4 pm Mon-Fri for same-day shipping from warehouses in Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch (excluding public holidays). Typically deliveries to major New Zealand towns and cities take 1 to 2 days, while it may take a day or two longer for rural areas. Delivery of oversized printers that are too heavy for normal courier delivery is done by Mainfreight and may take a little longer on occasions. You’ll be notified when your order has been dispatched and provided with a tracking number so you can monitor the progress of your order.

Things to Consider with Compatibles

If you’re considering using compatible cartridges, here are some key points to keep in mind:

Warranty

Using compatible cartridges does not automatically void your printer’s warranty. Under NZ law, a manufacturer generally cannot deny a warranty claim unless the non-genuine consumable caused the fault. For peace of mind, we stand by our products: if a cartridge supplied by Good Egg is proven to have damaged your printer, we will put it right. For more detailed information, read our full guide: Will Using Third-Party Ink Void My Printer Warranty?

Printer Firmware Updates

It’s no secret that printer manufacturers make their real profits from selling expensive genuine cartridges. To protect those profits, they often release automatic firmware updates designed to block compatible inks and toners.

We believe you should have the right to choose what goes into the printer you own - just like choosing which brand of fuel you put in your car.

How we handle it:

  • Rapid Response: Our manufacturers are experts at "re-chipping." As soon as an update is released, our cartridge chips are updated to ensure they stay compatible.
  • Our Guarantee: We only stock cartridges with the most up-to-date chips. If a firmware update ever causes an issue with a cartridge bought from us, we’ll provide a replacement - no dramas.

TIP: How to Protect Your Cartridges

The best way to ensure your cartridges keep working until they are actually empty is to disable Automatic Firmware Updates. If your printer receives an update while a compatible cartridge is installed, the manufacturer can "block" that cartridge instantly - even if it’s brand new.

  • Why do it? It prevents your printer from being "told" to stop recognising the cartridges you’ve already paid for. Turning off auto-updates keeps you in the driver’s seat.
  • What about security? We recommend turning Auto-Update OFF, then manually checking for updates every few months. That way, you decide when to update, rather than letting the manufacturer decide for you.
  • The "No Undo" Rule: Please note that disabling updates won't "fix" a cartridge that has already been blocked; it only protects you from future blocks.

How to turn off updates: Settings are usually found in the "Maintenance", "Setup", or "Service" menu on your printer’s screen. If you're stuck, just search online for your printer model + "how to turn off automatic updates" - it usually takes less than 30 seconds!
