Brother LT340CL 500-Sheet Optional Lower Paper Tray

Overview

The LT340CL is an optional lower paper tray that adds 500 sheets of input capacity to compatible Brother color laser printers. In workgroup environments where a single tray runs dry mid-job, adding the LT340CL reduces manual refill interruptions and enables mixed-media workflows — run standard letter stock in one tray while the other handles a different size or weight, letting the printer switch automatically based on the job.

Compatibility

The LT340CL installs on the following Brother single-function and all-in-one color laser models:

• Up to two LT340CL trays supported: HL-L8360CDW, HL-L9310CDW, HL-L9410CDN, HL-L9430CDN, HL-L9470CDN, HL-EX470W, MFC-L8895CDW, MFC-L8900CDW, MFC-L8905CDW, MFC-L9570CDW, MFC-L9610CDN, MFC-L9630CDN, MFC-L9670CDN, MFC-EX670W
• Up to one LT340CL tray supported: HL-L8360CDWT

Stacking two trays on the HL-L9 or MFC-L9 series brings total input capacity to 1,050 sheets (base tray + two LT340CLs) — a meaningful reduction in daily paper handling for high-volume print stations.

Installation Notes

The LT340CL sits below the printer base and supports the full unit on its own frame — account for the added 5.2 inches of height when placing the printer under a shelf or in a cabinet. Fully loaded, the tray adds 14.6 lbs; factor this into furniture load ratings when stacking two units. Overall footprint with the tray installed is 16.1
