The MFC-L2885DW is the best overall choice because it provides broader functions, faster performance, better connectivity and higher capacity. The M111A remains relevant when compact dimensions, low weight and direct USB printing are the priorities.
Both models use monochrome laser printing, support A4 paper and provide USB 2.0 connectivity. Their first-page times are also close: 8.5 seconds for the M111A and less than 8.5 seconds for the MFC-L2885DW. Printing sound pressure is similarly rated at 48 and 49 dB(A), respectively.
The main difference is that the M111A is print-only, while the MFC-L2885DW adds colour scanning, copying and faxing, along with a Dual CIS scanner and 50-sheet ADF. The Brother model also prints at 34 ppm versus 20 ppm, supports automatic duplex printing, and includes Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct and mobile printing services. Its input capacity is 250 sheets instead of 150, while its available replacement toners reach up to 5,000 pages compared with 975 pages.
The M111A benefits users who want a straightforward, compact device weighing 3.8 kg with lower printing power use. The MFC-L2885DW better serves users who need multi-page document handling, copying, scanning, faxing, wireless printing and higher throughput.
The M111A is a monochrome print-only model rated at 20 ppm with USB connectivity. The MFC-L2885DW prints, scans, copies and faxes at 34 ppm, while also providing Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, automatic duplex printing and a 50-sheet ADF.
Based on current prices, LaserJet M111A Black & White Printer is the cheaper option. It costs 100 USD versus 260 USD for MFC-L2885DW Monochrome Laser 4 in 1 Printer. The price difference is 160 USD, about 61.5% less. Prices are live and subject to change.
The M111A may suit users who only need monochrome printing from a USB-connected computer and prioritise compact size and low weight. The MFC-L2885DW suits users who need copying, scanning, faxing, automatic multi-page document handling or wireless printing.
Both use monochrome laser printing, support A4 paper and include Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity. Their first-page output times are close to 8.5 seconds, and both support Windows 10, Windows 11 and Linux. Neither includes a USB cable according to the supplied data.
