good only over usb
I have yet to get this thing working either wirelessly or on the ethernet, poor networking software and setup. Computer finds it just fine, can't ever print to it. Bought this to have a B/W option if the Epson workforce printer runs out of ink. Been knee deep in networking since the early 90s.

It works well for an affordable B&W printer.
I especially liked that I could easily install it with a wired connection to my computer. The HP I had was a nightmare to setup using an HP tech to access my computer for several hours to connect to my WiFi and print. Then it unconnected itself! And nothing I could do would fix it. For me, I’m done with HP, and now like Brother the best.

Manual Feed is Garbage
I bought this smaller one for manual feed (letters, labels, etc.). Its absolute garbage. The feed option never lines up right (no matter how much prep work I do) and if I put in in the tray, its less than 25% it works. Hot garbage. Find something else.

Going right back
This worked exactly once. Then it refused to recognize the paper-got stuck on paper type. I tried everything I could find but the automated service bot was not much help and I don’t want to keep trying re-installing the driver. Total waste of my time and now I have to drive two towns over to return it.

perfect for home-use
Cost just a little more than my ink-jet which constantly demanded I replace color cartridges and i haven't printed two color sheets in three years. Take color jobs to the local pros.

Jean's Printer
This printer only prints one sided and black; it does not copy. I chose it because of price and laser printing this is all I need for my personal uses. I am pleased with the size, quality of the printing, and large volume of paper it holds.

Set up
Initial set up was a little difficult with my windows 10 based computer through my home network. After a few (3? 4? I wasn't counting) installation efforts, everything (router, computer, printer) began talking to each other. A little frustrating as the wi-fi feature was a major purchasing factor. Once the printer finally hooked up, it has performed well. Brothers printe...

Good Printer
Printer was easy to hook up and works well. I've had Brother's printers for years and love having the laser printer. My original one stopped working properly after many years of pumping out pages and pages. Unfortunately, this model does not have double-sided printing and I'm disappointed that I wasn't paying attention when I ordered it.

Sturdy and uncomplicated
I had an issue with an HP printer that was just over 2 years old. The tech people at HP were not at all helpful and basically determined that my printer was unrepairable. A computer tech here in town whom I trust suggested I buy a Brother brand. He said they're built like tanks. He had nothing good to say about HP. The Brother printer was easy to set up wirelessly. So f...

Manual 2nd page?
I like it that is is wireless as well as wired and that it is laser and only b/w, but I couldn't believe that you had to put the 2nd page in manually! If I had known, I wouldn't have purchased. I had replaced my other 2320D Brother which I had about 6 years and it automatically turned the page over. It said automatic. What gives??

Spotty at best
Almost every time I printed, there were in spots throughout the page. It also skipped lines and did not print straight. Will be returning asap!

I was very disappointed in myself that I bought just a printer that DID NOT HAVE A COPIER with it. That's really what I needed.
