    Overall Good Printer Purchased this printer in 2018. Overall it is a good printer with good print quality. The issue I have is the bypass: 1) it can only hold one paper at a time; 2) When printing an envelope I almost always encounter issues with it not pulling envelope through correctly.

    Wow!!! I am technologically disadvantaged. My aunt had to help me set up printer. But since she set it up I have had no issues. I cannot fax because I do not have a landline but I have scanned and printed not only from my computer but my cell phone. It has been so easy that I want to learn what else this printer can do!!! I bought this printer because I had been buying cheap ones years past and never used them because I always had issues with them or they constantly needed ink I could not afford or am lazy and did not want t... read more

    Best Printer I've Ever Had I have owned a dozen printers over the years and I had pretty much figured all of them were junk in one way or another. That is until I bought this printer and WOW! Super reliable. Super good quality printing. And dirt cheap to operate. No more running to the store to get more @#$% ink cartridges every time I turned around. I've used this printer for 3 years and I'll never believe I got so lucky to finally get something that does what I need, when I need it and doesn't cost a fortune to operate. Th... read more

    Best printer I've ever owned This is my second Brother printer and after owning an HP -this is a joy to set up and use. I like this printer because it is compact and fits on a bookshelf - It color prints, scans, and faxes. I Love the cartridges that are easily installed with no mess. It comes with a CD that has complete installation instructions . Hard to find any printer these days--I think they are in short supply because everyone was working from home for the past year. But Amazon came through

    Started off great, but now doesn't print at all I really thought Brother had figured something out with this printer. It was under $200 and it felt like the ink lasted forever. But here we are 4 years later, I've printed barely half a ream of paper, and now when I print something, the paper comes out CLEAN - not a drop of ink on it. (even after several ink head cleanings) I was willing to buy a new one - but now the price is around 4x higher. Oh Brother, where art thou gone?

    Efficient- uses less ink than competitor brands I bought this printer in school several years ago. I printed ALL of my class notes/PP slides as I study best with a hard copy in hand. I ordered the extra set of ink cartridges and years later I am only just now opening them. By using the ‘draft’ print mode that my computer allows, I feel this printer was absolutely worth the investment. I had spent equal the cost of this printer and set of cartridges just on ink in 6months with my old cannon printer. I did a lot of research be... read more

    An excellent printer! Actually my first brother after many Canon and HP printers over the years. Can honestly say I like it the best. Ink has lasted the longest of any printer I've ever had. Been working great since I purchased it on August 20, 2016 for 149.99! Not sure why this one costs $350 dollars more!
