Answer

If Brother says it's an LED printer, then it probably is. But that is not a disadvantage. See chat GPT answer below. I am very satisfied with the print quality of this printer. Can only recommend it to others.

The main difference between an LED laser printer and a conventional laser printer is the way they transfer the image to the print medium. Here are the main differences:
### Technology
1st **Laser printer**:
   - A traditional laser printer uses a laser beam that alternately reflects a rotating mirror (or series of mirrors) to project the image onto a light-sensitive drum. The laser activates the drum at the points where ink is to be applied.
   
2 **LED laser printers**:
   - LED printers use a series of several LEDs that light up simultaneously instead of a laser beam. These LEDs are arranged in a line and "burn" the image onto the drum in a single pass. This eliminates the need for a moving mirror mechanism, which simplifies the printing process.
### Print quality
- Both types of printer offer high print quality, but LED technology is often particularly suitable for printing fine lines and text. 
### Speed
- LED printers can print faster in many cases as they can expose the entire image in one pass, whereas laser printers need the time to scan the image.
### Maintenance
- LED printers often have fewer moving parts than laser printers, which makes them less susceptible to maintenance and can increase their lifespan.
### Cost
- In general, LED printers are slightly more expensive to purchase, but operating costs can be lower due to higher efficiency and less maintenance requirements.
### Applications
- Laser printers are widely used in offices and for general printing requirements, while LED printers are often used in specialised applications where faster printing and specific printing requirements are needed.
### Conclusion
Both LED and laser printers have their own advantages and areas of application. The choice between them often depends on the specific requirements and intended use.
