    POS Jammed first time it was used in duplex mode and every time since. An expensive paper-weight. Avoid Brother like the plague.

    If you like paper jams and buying ink, this is the printer for you! Oh man, where to start? I had a Brother printer I loved, and it worked great for years!

    Cheap Product This is a horrible product. The printer constantly jams up on simple 20# paper and simple print jobs. It's cheaply manufactured. I'm shocked at how poorly this Brother product performs. The only reason I purchased this product was because my old Brother all in one printer was outstanding. Now I'm stuck with this ridiculous crap because my return window has closed. And by the way I've only used this printer on nine separate occasions and with each print job it jammed. I'm completely dissatisfied with this produc... read more
