Easy to use
Unpacked, properly quality controlled and easily set up by a totally non-tech senior citizen and her cat.

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.

Just what we needed for the house
Have been without a printer for a while. Needed to print a few tax documents and didn't want to go the shipping store reoute again. This was super easy to set up and connect all of my wireless devices. Great quality and didn't break the bank to buy it.

Good and inexpensive!
I had not print much of it but it is easy to install and print in good quality. The only thing I didn't like is the window to read the printer status is small. I have to shine a light directly into it to read.

Black and white printer
Easy installation and use. Inexpensive to operate because no color.

So much better than inkjet
After one inkjet after another failing over the years, we decided to go for this. Super fast and clean prints, and setup easily to my MacBook Pro / our network via the phone app.

Alot bigger than old one"
Printer works well. I couldn't get it to work wirelessly so i just reconnected cord from old printer, and it works just fine. Sometimes i miss the color option, But not for the price difference.

We replaced our Brother printer with another Brother inkjet printer. Great printer, easy to use when we need a simple printout.

Perfect Home Office Printer
Easy to connect! Sturdy. Got it up and printing from my laptop and phone within minutes. Print quality is great and printing is fast! My old Brother printer lasted more than 15 years so I was looking for another Brother. Very happy with my purchase.

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.
