    Good inexpensive wireless printer and scanner All features work well. Our needs are primarily scanning and instant copying. Both are ready to use. The scanner is great and includes fairly high resolution capabilities.

    Great Printer I like the design of the printer. Front load tray is a nice option. The setup was rather length but was very easy!! The set up pretty much walked you through step by step. The lengthy set up could be that I am using a rather dated laptop. The document feed is nice for making copies of multiple documents. I have not nor do I plan on using the FAX machine so I can not comment. I am only giving 4 stars because I have not had a chance to really put it through its trials.

    Awful!!!! This printer is awful! I've had it for 2 years. I was never able to fax anything and now it won't print with all new ink cartridges and after cleaning the printer heads. I bought this because I had good experience with another brother printer. It lasted for 10+ years. This one is terrible! I wouldn't recommend it to my worse enemy!
