    Slow Print Speed The print speed is slow and the color printing has a faded look to it which is probably why the color ink cartridges last as long as they do. On the plus side, wifi printing is fast and reliable; also, the printer has automatic cleaning and software update features. The black/white printing is sharp and there is a setting for higher quality printing which makes the color comparable to my HP 2542. I bought the Brother printer primarily to reduce the need to purchase replacement toner cartridges so often and f... read more

    Four Stars A little bit slow on basic black and white pages, but efficient and no issues with jamming.

    Great printer that does it all, conveniently, quickly and reliably. Have had this printer since Nov '17 and it's been great! One of the best printers I have ever owned and there are specific reasons: 1) Setup was super easy, even for WiFi if you just take your time and follow the directions step by step (15 mins) 2) It simply works!! Even when in standby for days/weeks I can easily print from my phones, laptops, even Chromebooks! 3) Ink doesn't dry out! There have been stretches where I won't print for close to a month and w... read more

    Nice printer I have been using a Brother 4040cln toner printer for 10 years with 50000 prints. I hope this inkjet can last as long. So far a full black ink can print 2000 page, which is good for inkjet.

    Better than the other compact AIO's Compact, quick printer that is easy to set up. Good ink life. Better than my previous Canon and HP.

    Easy setup Pro : Printer arrived today. Setup was easy. Connected right to my wifi. Print looks good. Replaced my Epson workforce 3620 Cons : Not as well build as my Epson was and it a little on the loud side when printing. Time will tell how the printer will perform when it is put to the test . Will update my review in a few months.

    Good printer, but drops offline too often To be honest, I've never met a printer I just LOVED, so a 3-star is about as good of a rating as I have ever experienced. Overall this is a very good printer. Compared to my last Canon, it goes way longer on stock ink cartridges- which I appreciate most. Quality is on par, as is printing speed. The document feeder and paper feeder- often my two primary sources of frustration are pretty good. Here's the skinny: PROs: -Econonical to operate. The ink cartridges seem to last a really lon... read more

    Five Stars Easy to install. Prints fast, scans slow. Like the duplexer so I can copy or scan several pages.
