    One Star The print quality was the best 1996 could offer. In 2018, not so much.

    Great Features, HORRIBLE performance I would not recommend buying this printer. Although the features are great and perfect for my in-home, personal use, it already needs to be sent off for a 'repair' after only less than a year of sparing use. Of the 40 times I've printed something, about half of those times there was a paper jam. It also has a self cleaning feature, great right? No. When it self cleans (say, after a paper jam, or 4 of the other reasons Brother lists on its website), it fills up the 'ink absorber pad.' Beca... read more

    Cheap and cheesy--not typical Brother quality--it's a shame Let's see how cheap and junky we can make these printers until the consumers say, "No more!" This thing is slower than molasses in July! I pulled out the tray the other day (only the second time) to load the whole 20 sheets of paper that the tray can handle--and snap! There goes a few pieces of plastic. The print quality is okay, which is why I gave it 2 stars. But it doesn't have any other redeeming qualities. I'll be dropping this off at Goodwill while it still wo... read more

    The Epson ET-4750 is a better choice. Wish I could return it This printer uses up the inks while idle. The self-cleaning cause's the ink's to be used up. They say it will save inks. Not so. The Epson ET-4750 is a better choice. Wish I could return it.

    Your Brother machine will perform maintenance purges of the print head at regular intervals. This is to ensure consistent print quality and prevent damage to the print head. These purges remove any air or debris that may have gotten into the print head manifold. Your machine will use the minimum amount of ink necessary to perform this operation.
