    Bought the printer for my wife for her College courses and was glad I did. She does a lot of printing with it and has found that the quantities of pages she can print is well worth the money paid.

    After many printers bought through the years I found Brother to make the best ones on durability and ink. I don't do precision printing, but this is great for color and savings on ink cost.

    I went into Best Buy and consulted with one of the associates on the specs of this laser printer and it seemed to be ideal. I took it home connected it read the instructions read the manuel which was pretty easy and began to print. it jammed on the second print job and it was constantly jamming and jamming the message was never cleared out but it continued to show a jam. I have to take it back to Best Buy. It was not convenient in any way.

    I love this printer. I love that it prints two sides and I am able to save paper that way! Only down side is that it is a little slow to print at times! But still great!

    It prints fairly quick but starting up from sleep takes a big initial power draw. I got this because I was tired of ink drying out.

    I had to do some reports in color and did research to see what would be a best fit for me and my work. Cant beat the price and the product. Brother goes out of their way to make great products.

    I installed the printer quickly and the directions were easy to follow. I have used it for various print projects and have not had any problems. The print quality is exactly what I needed.

    I love my new laser printer. I had the dell color laser printer and it would not take certain type of paper or cardstock. This printer has taken just about all paper I have put in it.

    This color laser works great and was a snap to set up for wireless access. Toner saving mode is quite good and worth using. Look online for ways to maximize cartridge output. It works.

    This is just what I needed, a fast color printer without any other things included. I already have a fax,scanner and copier so all I needed was a great printer like this one.

    I have used this printer to do brochures and pictures for exhibits. The printing is great although the colors are not well defined if you print pictures.

    Bought this to replace my other printer that was terrible on ink cartidges purchases. Needed something that was inexpensive and produced more pages per ink. This fit the bill perfectly

    easy setup, fast printing. color print could be better but i already knew that and was willing to loose a little color quality to not have to worry about ink drying out like on ink jets

    The printer is great and I would buy it again. I would have loved a dual printer/copier combo for the price though. In saying that, I definitely got what I paid for.

    This guy works pretty well but getting it set up for wireless printing is unnecessarily difficult. But once it was set up it was great.

    I have a brother laser I use for printing invoices that is only b&w which works good and seems to hold up on toner if you buy the larger cartridge. I been needing a color version for sometime and looked at a few, ended up buying another Brother, it used up all the toner it came with quickly, it prints slow, and you can't do over like 10 copies at a time or it starts acting up. Refill toner is twice what the printer cost.

    Mostly works great, but occasionally disconnects from my wireless network. Powering the printer off and back on solves the problem, though.
