Brother - MFC-9340CDW Wireless Color All In One Printer

We finally decided to give in and buy a laser printer when our inkjet messed up and stopped printing black ink. I researched for months before deciding. Price was a huge factor and this one had great reviews. It does everything I could possibly need it to do! Our main reason in buying a laser printer I s homeschooling, but as the church clerk/secretary I have already used it for church purposes as well, like when our church printer quit on us. The only thing I’ve not tried is faxing as I just don’t have a need for that. I hooked it up wirelessly and it was super simple. Everything works well. The only complaint I have is printer speed. This may be something I’ve just got to configure myself or maybe I misunderstood the copy speed for the printer speed. Either way, for now my way around that is if I need to print multiple copies like say for the church bulletin like I did last week, I can just print one from the computer and then make copies of the rest. If I try to print all from the computer, it wants to restart each time so it seriously takes about a minute per copy. That’s not cool, but maneageable with the copying until I can find another solution. I have printed from my iPhone, iPad, and iMac all. There was one slight issue when trying to print from the iMac that I have to resolve too. Even when I change the printer settings to short edge (duplex printing), it still printed on long edge. I honestly don’t remember now if I printed from my phone or a flash drive, but one of those ways made it print on short edge. Anyway it still gets five stars from me because I haven’t had too much time to research and find solutions. The print quality is excellent and it does everything I need it to do! I know the toner is just a starter set, but it’s lasting great so far! In summary, even though I’ce had a few hiccups with it, nothing has been major and I’m very pleased with this purchase. You’d have a hard time finding a better deal! Trust me, I researched for such a long time!!

This is an awesome printer for heavy duty reliable color and black and white printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. Why I rated this printer so high: 1) was super easy to setup on my home wifi 2) it has an excellent automatic document feeder. This is very helpful for copying, scanning documents Super fast in a bunch as opposed to scanning/copying each sheet of paper on the glass 3) the Automatic document feeder does double sided copying and scanning. This is awesome. What this means is I place a stack of double sided sheets to be scanned or copied , hit start and walk away. And magically all of them are scanned or copied correctly and perfectly. 3) an awesome feature that no one stated in the reviews I read is I am able to scan documents directly into my PC from my printer. To be clear, my printer is in the upper level of my house and my PC is in the basement. Once I load all the Brother software and drivers (which again is very easy to do), I connect my printer and PC to the SAME access point on my home wifi. Then I put my documents (double sided) into the document feeder and hit the start button on my printer upstairs and forget about it. Later when I go downstairs to my PC, I find all of my double sided documents automatically scanned into PDF on the hard drive of my PC. This is spectacular. I absolutely love the reliability and quality of the scans. 4) printer quality is fantastic for documents. I do not print photos. Also the initially toner cartridges last well over a month or of HEAVY printing. After that I purchased the original Brother toners. The color toners last longer. Perhaps because I printed more black and white documents 5) bottom line this printer is awesome value for my money. There was a time HP used to make such good laser printers. I believe this Brother laser printer (multifunction) is better than the best HPs I used over the years. Buy this printer if you have heavy document printing, copying, and scanning needs. I have not tested the faxing function yet.

This is my first laser printer and I couldn't be happier. The prints on this printer are just as good if not better than the commercial quality laser printer at school. It took a little while to set it up but once it was working it is consistent and fast. The only negative I have (and the reason for 4 stars) is that the toner cartridges say they are empty long before they really are. There is a trick to resetting the counter to get the rest of the toner out of the cartridge but this is a pain. That said it's an excellent printer for the price and I would definitely buy it again.

It pains me to give the Brother printer such an outstanding review, because, yes, I have been a faithful HP printer buyer. But, believe me. Brother printer is crazy good!! I just stare at my printer after it works so beautifully and think, what took me so long? Extra cash money, bigger machine, and a tiny, little wait time to print-but oh! the results!!! Smooth and reliable, Brother printer nails it.

I probably do more printing than the average home user. I did 600-1000 pages of printing in the last 6 weeks. I also do quite a bit of scanning. I am happy with the printer. It has great speed for scanning and does 2-sided scanning which is very nice. It does a good job of printing however, I do not think I get as many pages out of the toner cartridges as advertised, but I find this true of most printers. It does warn you that you are getting low far before you need a new cartridge but the quality of printing decreases quite a bit as you continue printing when the color cartridges get low. This is not the printer for someone who wants to print photos. However it is great for high volume printing

I've been using this all in one printer for almost two months now, and so far I am very pleased with the purchase. It took a little effort to connect it to my wi-fi, but once I did, I haven't had a problem with it. I'm an Apple fan, so I've got an iMac, a MacBook Air, and a MacBook Pro that all print to this printer with absolutely no problems. Excellent print quality, long life from the toner cartridges, and color printing on par or better than the inkjet printers I've owned in the past. My wife is currently enrolled in college, so she is giving the machine quite the work out with all the printing she is doing. So far, it has operated flawlessly. On the higher end pricewise, but if you're doing large amounts of black and white printing, this machine fills the bill. Haven't needed to use the scan or fax features so far, so I can't speak for them, but I suspect they would work well also. I've had numerous Epson all in one inkjets, and this machine is far superior. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

The Brother MFO 9340 CDW All in One Printer is good value. When a problem arises, it gives clear directions for correction, and if trouble shooting is unable to solve, a phone call will get technical help.

Had the last one for several years. It started having some print quality issues and, for the price, we felt it was better to just buy another rather than take our chance on fixing the old one. As it turns out, that one may have just needed a driver update, but we are so happy with this model, and we used lots of Brother equipment at my last job at a Fortune 100 company (along with HP, of course), that I felt comfortable buying the first one. Excellent product, excellent support!
