Quiet operation,good print quality,ink inexpensive
This printer is probably better suited to a business office than a home office. It is rather bulky for my home office setting, but I like its quiet operation, good print and scan features, and inexpensive ink when compared with other printers I have owned. The biggest drawback that I've experienced so far is troubleshooting a paper jam--very difficult to do, and judging from my internet search I am not alone in this regard.

Professional Grade Muti-function Unit
Extensive on-line research for multi-function printers that play well in Mac OS kept returning this Brother printer model. The printer instantly paired via WiFi with all our office computer stations, and has been pushing out sharp copies ever since. Wish I knew about this unit before purchasing our previous multi-function printer two years ago.

First Brother... very happy, so far
I have been shopping and researching for months, while growing more and more frustrated with my old HP all-in-one. I had never really considered a Brother printer before, but I was really tempted by the tabloid size printing and scanning. I bought this printer a little over a month ago. So far, it has been great, especially compared to my last inkjet all-in-one printers (HP and Epson). The (double-sided) scanner is better than I expected, again much better than the HP all-in-one it replaced. I don't use the fax. As for printing, it is responsive and fast. The software/drivers for windows work well. I am pleased with the printing of documents and photos and very happy to have automatic duplexing. One drawback is the fact that the ink cartridges are not available at retail stores, and apparently it may not print if one of the colors is empty. So, I will keep delivered spares on hand. It is a big unit, so clearly not right for those looking for a small form-factor. But for those in need of large format printing and scanning... I recommend this one. The rest of my family are "macs" (and IOS devices). They have been very happy with the output as well from all of their devices.

Great home office printer
I spent a lot of time reading reviews, etc. before we bought this printer. Our current printer was an Epson Workforce printer, which we loved and have had for 6 years, but the cost of ink was a killer. We looked at the new EcoTank printers, but they seemed so cheaply built in comparison. We use our printer/scanner for a variety of personal and home office applications, and a duplex scanner was an important criteria, as well as a lower cost of ink. This printer is large and heavy, but we have the room for it. This printer is a work horse - the printing speed is fantastic, the duplex scanning has worked flawlessly, the quality is very good for a printer in this class. We have not printed any photos on it yet, but really didn't buy it for that and don't expect good photo quality from a non-photo printer. The only difficulty so far is the wireless printing, sometimes our iPhones and iPad find the printer immediately, and sometimes they can't find it at all, but we haven't determined yet if this is a router issue or a printer issue. We haven't had it long enough yet to determine the ink costs, but I am certain they will be less than our previous printer. It was easy to set up and easy to use. The touch screen is very intuitive and responsive. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a more solid home/office printer.

Great Printer
Can print and scan up 11x17. Scan and print quality is exceptional. I did have a problem using card stock.
