    Great value! Great wireless printing, no lag or delay starts printing instantly, printing is kind of slow but not a big deal. Print quality is decent not very strong colors. The fax feature is a great bonus but is tricky to use, I wish you were able to also send a fax using the scanner especially for smaller documents or IDs.

    Economical and easy I am a big fan of Brother products. They are easy to set up in my opinion. This one took about 20 minutes and off I went. For a $50 printer this prints at a decent quality for every day use. Fair warning, the ink goes quickly. But there are ways to deal with that issue. Overall, totally worth it.

    Odd set up- but good printing I got this for a project- the color is pretty good- esp after the printed sheet dries... but the set- up is odd. The USB is UNDER the screen and winds out to the outside. Overall, I am pleased with this machine for a short term project.

    Really good col our printer for classroom Great bang for your buck. I am a teacher prepping for the new school year and needed color printing for special education students. Did so much printing I used up the yellow ink but it's reasonably priced to replace and all my classroom signs etc for the year are done. Pretty impressed. The signing into wifi was a downside tho. Really tedious keypad thingy.

    Good for the price. Thus Far. I've had experience getting these units onto my WiFi, so it went quite smoothly. Some confusion in the instructions relative to the timing to load the software (again experience helps). The Yellow is a little light, but all-in-all, she works and for a decent price. Also, I did not get strangled into some ink purchase requirement like HP is doing these days. Watch out for that!!
