    Great printer I spent a long time reviewing different printer options for my home office. I'm extremely happy with this printer.

    Great Update to Home Office I picked this all-in-one to replace an older Brother that had suddenly/inexplicably (old age is NOT an explanation) stopped printing legibly ,,,,, just scribbles. I was NOT disappointed ,,,, set-up was something that even I (at age 76) could handle; scans work fine; print from PC is SUPER quick. ONLY disappointment is that the new Brother uses different ink cartridges than the old. At my age I hate to say it, BUT newer generations (incl. those of Brother) are quicker and smarter !!

    Good but not great This printer does get the job done. I have no complaints with the print jobs however, it will not print if you are out of any of the ink.

It doesn't make much sense to me and I wish I wo... read more

    Slow but steady This printer is not for someone who wants the product "now". It is slow. Having said that I will also add the print is very clear and the printer connects EVERY time with my PC. My last printer was such a headache to get it going, not this Brother, works every time. The touch screen is a little bit trial and error on how to use it. but once again, once you are connected it is a breeze to use. Have not tried the fax part of it and probably never will. I am so thrilled that I can hit print on my computer withou... read more
