Excellent well priced printer
I wanted a simple to use and efficient printer and that is what this printer is. Easy to set up and use and so reasonably priced for such a good machine. It is quite big but that is not a problem for me.

Works Great!
Been working great the last few weeks. Great option if someone needs an 11 x 17 printer/scanner. Easy to use.

Works great once setup
As I found no specific mention of it in the quick start directions I had figured that the printer driver(s) was being installed behind the scenes. I got the WiFi connected easily per the instructions but kept getting “no internet connection” at that point. After some head scratching and poking around I finally got the driver(s) installed and everything worked great. Lov...

1 Star Experience but I still recommend it with conditions.
I purchased this printer from Staples for large format printing and higher capacity cartridges.
The printer worked fine but I did not need it for a period of time, When I tried printing it needed multiple head
cleanings. That did not work plus the ink involved in cleaning totally messed up the insides of the printer.
After 10 prints total prior to needing to clean head...

Great Brother Wireless color inkjet.
No problem in connecting this wireless printer. The only problem I have is trying to fax without a having a landline phone jack.

I prefer Brother printers
I install and support a lot of different brand Printers and for me Brother has always been the best when it comes to productivity and rarely needs any glitchy network disconnects fixed.

Never works properly.
This unit isn't very useful as every single time I want to use it I have to run it through 3-4 cleaning cycles. The nozzles seem to dry out/clog every day. Very disappointing. I am sorry I ever bought this printer.

Cadillac of Printers!
I received my printer today and have to say it is the Cadillac of printers!! Very easy to set up and connect to my home WiFi. Easy to follow paper instructions came in the box along with printer screen instructions to help guide the set up process. One and two sided printing are both quick and great quality. Being able to scan 11X17 prints for work will be a lifesaver! ...

Terrible terrible terrible connection issues!
Don’t bother buying this nonsense unless you want to spend your life trying to connect it to the internet and phone! It’s so slow! And I’ve spent more of my life trying connect this thing to a perfect internet connection than anything else in life! The printing is great providing you can get the thing to print and do the job it’s supposed to be for! Absolutely ridiculou...

Not impressed with MFC-J6940DW
This our 4th Brother printer and this model is not of the same quality or robustness. The things which have changed are: 1. Sensitive to head clogging we need to clean heads on a regular basis particularly after colour prints; 2. When inks are low the printer just stops printing without telling us and we need to check to work out that it is because one of the inks is ...

Great mostly but one big flaw for me
I chose this wide format printer over HP and the Epson after much research online. Reasons....prints faster 50 sheets in the feeder tray 11x17 in the rear tray (up to 100 sheets) & 11x17 paper in either of the cassettes. Also according to websites it has a lower cost per copy on ink. The construction seems very solid & the lid is fairly quiet when lifting. Pri...

Will not print both sides inkject paper
An excellent printer except for one very unfortunate flaw. You cannot use double-sided inket paper as the duplex system does not work with his type of now common media. It seems that All Brother printers fail in this regard. A shame because apart form this they excellent machines
