Occasionally does not connect to internet and won't print. Otherwise, very good when it works!

Mostly satisfied

Use to print data only as pictures don't come out good

Every day Data print & reliable??

Simple to operate, performs very well. Have recommended it to friends.

Multifunction printer

I would have given this printer 5 stars, however I had to replace the fuser unit after 1000 pages. Other wise i Like the printer.

Had issues

More reliable than my previous laser printer. Better printing quality and awesome support from Brother

Fantastic Printer

No problems at all year 1. In year 2 it regularly goes offline and will not print.  Built-in troubleshooter is of no help.  Only uninstalling and reinstalling fixes the problem temporarily.

Unreliable in year 2 as networked printer

I hate this printer with a passion. Every single time I use it, i have to remove and re-add it to the network. Every. Single. Time. I've gone over it and over it with support and nothing will make it stay connected. I hate it so much I think I might burn it.

will not stay connected wirelessly

It doesn't print fast (at all it uses way more ink then my older printer I had and it takes so long for one paper to print.

good for personal use not business.

First Laser machineand really very happy so far. Largerthat Ink Jet but more versatile and economical.Quiet and fast doing tasks.

Good value

Good product and features work as described for our use.

Solid product

Works like it should. Would recommend to friends..

Works great

I chose this printer because I had previous good experience with an older Brother printer.
This model has copier scanner functions also which is very handy.
I also like that this model uses the same toner cartridges as the previous one.
Very easy to setup using Wifi

Excellent Printer, copier, scanner

Great color laser printer. This is the first printer I’ve had that I’m able to print from my iPad. It’s also a great copier. I need a copier that can enlarge and reduce and this one does it so easily. It was easy to set up on my network and the printer display makes it very easy to use. The quality of color printing on plain paper is very good.

Great printer

Got the initial printer. That died, so I got 2 replacement devices to replace it. Both of those have had problems or stopped working. Would not recommend this product to anyone. Customer service was great both times I tried to get replacement devices

Terrible product

Easy set up,and other than it took me a while to figure out how to use thew scanner (my problem, not Brother's it works perfectly.

A real bargain!

I have this unit setup on my home network. Since I don't print a lot or even very often, the printer idles in wait state sometimes for days. However, when I need to print it comes alive and does a great job. To date I have not had any issue with it.

Doesn't let me down

I love the speed, and ease of use. Having the app on my phone and being able to print from anywhere is fantastic!

Fast and great printing!

Happy with print quality, speed, two-sided printing, scanning. No problems and quick and easy setup.

Excellent!

The display is easily read and very easy to use. the cartridges are also very easy to change out and cleaning is accessible.

compact

All features of this printer is good. But it lacks a continuous feeder on the copy plate that can be found in the higher price model of Brother printer. Overall I am very satisfied with the performance of the model I bought.

Good Printer

I love the machine.  I like the paper capacity and the amount you can print before having to change ink.  I feel the only drawback is the price of the toner.  On the expensive side.  I can buy after market for cheaper but they do not last as long.  So I have to weigh the difference between changing more often or buying OEM. Two or three after market equal one OEM, but is still cheaper.

Easy to use.  Nice features

Far better than my old inkjet as there are no more clogged jets.

I's a laser printer

I first look at toner cost before ordering printers as I know that is where the real money is spent.  This one I was able to get very inexpensive toner (relative to other brands so I bought it.  At first I was amazed.  Fast prints, great quality, plug and play to my Windows box.

Then about 9 months in it started losing it's wifi connection to my router at least every other day.  Relogging in would not fix, had to reset printer network option each time.  Sometimes twice a day, but average about every few days.

Printer is about 6 feet from router.

Got with customer service while still under the 1 year warranty.  Went through all the normal steps of upgrading this and that software and firmware.  Each time things were good for a few days then lost connection again.  Every time I got with customer service it was a new person and apparnetly they do not note anything as I'd have to go through all the same steps each time.  After a few support communications and calls I finally said stop having me do the same things over and over.  They then said I need to turn off my Windows firewall and that should fix the issue.  I told them my computer should have nothing to do with whether the printer is connected to the network and it isn't just my Windows computer that has an issue.  All our devices can't print because the printer is no longer on the network.

After felt like an eternity of arguing that point they said that I need to call a network technician as the problem is my network.  I tried to explain that we hav no less than 15 devices that can connect no problem and the printer worked great for 9 months that it is not my network.  They held strong on that.

What did I do?  I found an HP with the least expensive toner I could find and use that now.  I move this piece of junk up to my kids room where he can direct connect with USB as direct connecting works.  But I spend a lot of money for a network printer which now only works with USB.

I would stay away from this and basically anything Brother.  I used to be a Brother fanboy and told all my friends that is the printer you want.  Now I'm apologizing to all my friends.  I expected them to send me a new printer and have me send this one back, or give me an option to get it fixed.  They did neither.  As far as I'm concerned they do not stand behind their product.

Was great, then not.  HORRIBLE support

I have 2 girls who like to print. I got this mainly because I thought the toner cartrage would be a better deal and heck yes it is better. Not only the quality of the printer but the overall printed look is much better. They can print in color pretty much what ever they want.

Perfect for Family’s!!!

printing from scans or from photos is not acceptable

so-so

This is a great printer. It has and does almost everything I need and nothing I don't. The text print quality is excellent as is the incidental color. Photos show a bit of banding and unevenness, but they are as good as any I've seen on other laser printers. It is quite loud when printing and could be a problem in some environments. As a copier, the resolution is a bit low, this can be circumvented by scanning to a computer and manipulating the image there. It uses more electricity in stand-by than I like, but I don't keep it turned on. The only thing I find that this machine lacks is an Ethernet port; no NFC may become an issue in the future, but I don't need it now. In all, this is a great not-so-little machine. (Please Note - I have not had to buy toner yet!

Almost Perfect

I bought this printer at the recommendation of a friend.  While the duplexing is nice, I am not impressed with the print quality or manual feed.  Sadly, I would return this printer if I could.

Just "okay"...

Prints and scans very fast with very excellent quality.

Very nice printer!!

First laser printer...bye-bye Inkjet!!! I wish I wouldn’t have waited so long  to switch!  AMAZING!!! Fast print outs with clean, crisp text. Both black & white and color copies are phenomenal! Thank You Brother!

LOVE IT!!!

Easy to use. Plug and play set up. Beautiful prints
