An excellent printer
This printer is one of the best I ever had…and I have had many. The set up was easy and it has worked perfectly. I took one star away since whoever wrote the documentation seems to not understand the concept of helping users to set the printer up…but once I abandoned the directions everything went great.

Just what the doc ordered
After my MFC-L2750DW passed on, my extensive research led me to this unit with similar features including duplex (front-back) scanning, plus a better sealed laser unit to reduce the risk of contamination (which was the downfall of my prior unit). To date, it's working flawlessly!

Good machine, overly problematic set-up
The machine has several nifty features, and all work well. Set up, however, is poorly described and needlessly confusing: getting onto home WiFi, downloading the right app among several, efficiently printing from email on phone while at home—all took way longer to figure out since instructions were not seamless. Very frustrating start up.

Why did I ever try Lexmark?
Can't believe I tried to use a Lexmark machine for 5 years when it could have been this easy. This Brother printer just worked -- right out of the box. And I'm so thankful that I picked it up at *exactly* the right time (right before tax season)! Thank you dear Brother!

Performance so far
So far so good with this new machine. Mostly upgraded for the two sided printing and scanning function. Couple other perks came with it not really that much different from a MFC-L2760DW. Install went okay only had to backtrack once or twice. Gets a little finicky when trying to set up wireless printing and scanning. Using the USB cord during this process saves a few he...

Brother MFC-L2900DW
Great printer - scanner for light office use. Scanner is very slow so not great when scanning larger files. Not as fast to print and scan as other Brother MFC printers, but great for personal or light office use.

It's fine
As a printer it is fine but I find the absence of a USB port problematic. It means every time I need to scan something I have to turn on my computer to store the file. Also I changed the password for the printer but it is not recognized and all attempts to return to the default password have failed.

Response from Staples :
The Brother MFC-L2900DW features a built-in USB 2.0 port that enables a direct wired connection to a computer. This port is located on the back of the printer, allowing you to connect it using a USB cable. Below is an FAQ that may help you with the password reset process.

Monochrome rules
Has more features than my last brother printer. Quick, reliable, periodic software updates. The only weakness of brothers software is the fact that it cannot sort multiple pages on a scan without rescanning the multiple pages in the event that the page order was off the first time. Other than that it’s a great machine. Brother “at your side” is very good and more times ...

Not a good experience
This is my third brother’s printer. Loved 1 and 2. This one is AWFUL. Not intuitive. Can only print by phone. My tech savvy friends can’t fix it either. No error message when refusing to print despite scan and copies work. Hold time was over 3 hours to get a live human to help. Don’t have that kind of time. Tried chat with robot and they simply sent the directions I alr...

Brother Support Is Horrible
I get an error from Windows ONLY when installing Brother software for the printer. Their support won't even consider helping instead telling me to get support from Microsoft which also has terrible support. Don't buy Brother printers they are full of bugs.

The little copier/scanner/fax mamchine that could!
This copier/scanner/fax machine replaced a much larger HP unit. I'm happy to have a smaller footprint on my desk, and it does everything I could want. Better price on toner, too. Easy to set up, few paper jams, etc. I'd buy it again!
