This printer is really a great all in one printer. Im a homeschooling mom that does alot pf printing. I also print art prints for picture studies. The quality isnt as grest as a laser printer but its definitely still very clear. It prints fast, very user friendly and also super cost effective to print. All around a great printer!

Sometimes the printing capabilities with the wifi are intermittent. For example, sometimes I can print directly from my cellphone and some days I can't. It doesn't matter if I turn off the printer or reset my mobile device the wifi capabilities just don't want to work. But overall, I'm very pleased with this printer. Much better than a Hewlett-Packard or a Canon - both of which I've owned and both of which have left me greatly disappointed.

Often prints multiple blank sheets of paper with the copy you are trying to print. Very slow to respond to your computer's request to print something.

I really like it and had it less than one year when it stopped scanning to computer by USB. Fortunately the tec support team is responsive, however most were not very knowledgeable and the steps they wanted me to do made it worse than before. After tec support, things that were working, stopped working. I finally figured out myself how to change all the settings back and resolve my own problem. The paper support tray where the printed pages come out is now loose and only sitting on the track. I was told I would have to take it or send it to an authorized service center for repair. So I decided to live with that.

I had to wait for 6 months due to COVID supply chain issues, I love Brother printers my last MFC printer lasted 10 years. But this particular model has had a document feed issue sense day one, and the scan feature is problematic. The copy features are above average and the second tray can be used for 11x17 paper.

Brother MFC's never disappoint. I've been a long time customer and after purchasing two of these for the office I purchased another for the home. It just works every time and our entire family now can print directly from their devices which saves me from having to do it for them. It seems to sip ink and blast out copies so quickly. The software suite works flawlessly for scanning and I always know I can rely on a quality result.

Great printer. Mostly purchased it for duplex scanning and it does a great job of that. Bonus is the economical printing features. Excellent home office printer! Great value.

From the time I hit the print button, it prints faster than my old printer. Almost instantaneously. I love the double sided scanning because it saves me a lot of time. I don't have to manually feed it like the old printer.

The MFC-J5945DW is incredibly fast and gives you crisp, clear printouts. The paper trays and ink are very accessible and easy to load. The rear paper feed is versatile for envelopes and such, however, the menus don't always provide enough information to select the proper paper or envelope size. The only criticism I would have is using the FAX feature and figuring out the sequence of sending and receiving via the menus and front panel are confusing at first. Make sure you download ALL the software during installation.

Needed a printer for printing 11" X 17" drawings, wish it also would scan 11" X 17" for my use. But it is a very nice printer and works extremely well.

I have only had the MFC-J5945 for a couple of week. It is a very professional printer to use. I very much appreciate the 2 sided one pass scanning feature. It simplifies the document handling.

This printer is EVERYTHING my small business needs! Love that it is compact, holds lots of paper in TWO trays. Prints, copies and scans two sided! That is the best. Oh and its FAST and QUIET and holds a lot of ink. What more could you ask of a printer for such a great price?

Quick printing, excellent copy quality, two sided copying and document feeder works very well. Appears to be a well made machine.

I love the way this printer interfaces with the user and its paper-handling capabilities. Separate paper drawers and rear tray make printing various sizes convenient. It uses a lot of ink. The cartridges it comes with are barely enough (in one case no enough to fill the internal tanks, so if you purchase new, have another set ready. Another good thing about it is the ink gauges explaining how much is left in the carts and internal tanks. It prints photos pretty well and will do OK at a 11X17 print but not like a photo printed at a shop. This is my second of this model. I had an initial problem that required Brother support to sort out. Printing results of any photo or graph showed a green tinge. I was directed to utilized an internal flushing program and restart the inking process. Used a lot of ink in doing so. (Thought Brother might offer a coupon for wasted ink in completing this flushing but it wasn't to be.) Product support was attainable and friendly.

This printer has all the features we need and is very fast. The USB and WiFi connections work well, however we found that if a tower computer does not have WiFi, we cannot use a ganged USB device to connect more than one tower.

This is my second brother printer and it meets all my specification. Has all the feature I wanted for a good price. Cost per copy is very reasonable both black and color. Copy and scan both sides feature reduces time and handling. One year ink supply is a big plus.

I?ve only had my printer a short time. The time I?ve had it everything is been very easy to use and much quieter than my old one. It?s nice to be able to scan and print from my other Apple platforms. I like the looks of it sitting in my Home office. I?ve not tried the envelope printing yet so I hope that works as well as everything else.

Small Business Office needing a printer that was better than just the little home printers but not a large contract printer. This printer is more than I need and still learning new things it can do. More than met my requirements!!

I have owned many different printers over the years, starting with the old dot matrix Commodore style to this Brother which I had to purchase refurbished rather than new (no ink jet Brothers available in Canada. Easy to set up, speedy delivery, and so far comparable to the best of what I've used in the past.

Has done everything as advertised.Need to let people buy parts, instead of making them go to Brother service or another brand.

a phenomenal well-built unit which is far superior to a major competitor's product and Brother technicians are a pleasure to interact with compared to less knowledgeable technicians elsewhere.

Still works fine after 6 months, with all the features I wanted - especially the dual trays. So, far, much more reliable than prior other brand AIOs.
