    Good Quality but Poorly Placed Touch Screen This is a good printer with ease of installation and use with computers and mobile devices. However, the touchscreen is small and located on the front panel instead of the top of the printer. This makes it awkward to change settings if the printer is placed at waist height or lower. I, initially, had difficulty locating the USB port inside the printer. It is in the center towards the front, but the port itself is situated to the right side, so you insert your USB cord from the righ... read more

    Very satisfied I received this item in very quick time and it was in great shape; everything from the out side of the box to the product inside. My only issue was that it came packaged in a box that clearly showed what I purchased so if anybody was in need of a printer they knew where they could get one as it waited on the porch until I got home. Other than that I am very satisfied with the printer. It was relatively to set up and the instructions were clear. It took less than 15 minutes in all to do. As soon as it was set u... read more

    Exactly what I wanted for half the price of everywhere else I already had another Brother printer, but it wasn't an all in one. Everywhere in town was twice the price of this one in various brands. They weren't as nice, or they weren't exactly what I wanted. This was! It has everything I wanted. Even the brand I wanted... and the price was way less then I was thinking I would have to pay! Great product! Great deal!

    Works great! Works Great, the only problem i ran into was that the WPA key on the printer only supports 8 characters total length, so had to change the WPA shared key on my router side then updated all the other WPA devices on my network to match the new key, other than that minor connection issue, printer works well above expectations for the price and so much more compact than my old pixma.....

    Best Printer for the Price! I LOVE this printer! I have horrible luck with almost any printer that I buy, even when they are name brand and expensive. This printer was SO easy to install and is such a breeze to use. It is rather slow, but for home use, I don't mind. I'll never go back to another brand of printer.

    Good for a start off printer, for Heat Transfer printing This printer was so simple to set up! Spent about 10 minutes (including downloading software). I got it to print pictures on inkjet heat transfer paper and I'm impressed for the price and how low of price for the refills.
