    I was able to get this printer setup in about five minutes, connected to wifi using a long, complex password. Print quality is great, as is print speed. The free duplexer is icing on the cake.

    I have no problems with this printer, it's fast. OK, ok... actually setting it up on the wireless network is a bit of a pain, but other than that... it's all good.

    Needed a reliable color printer for client presentations. This is much better than the old ink-jet - running out of ink, heads need replacing, sloppy printing, etc.

    I had an HP Inkjet and it took forever to warm up and print. This Brother Laser Jet is fast and awesome. Can’t say enough good things about it. Highly recommended.

    The printer was easy to set up, has printed everything I've asked it to (without issues), was a good price, and arrived quickly and in good condition. Really all I can ask for.

    This printer is really great. The quality is good and for the price you can't beat it. The wireless set up was a bit tricky, but after you get through that it's smooth sailing.

    A very cheap and functional color laser printer. The only issue I have is you can only feed one page at a time in the manual feed section. The Bluetooth function is wonderful.

    Color laser printers are something of a modern miracle - they let you print color business documents without going to a print shop. For small runs, it's amazing and cost-effective. The AirPrint functionality is fantastic. Brother printers are super easy to set up and the whole thing was up and running in under 30 minutes.

    Bought this for the office. It was an easy setup process and seems to work fine. A little slow to get out of hibernation mode, but works fine after that.

    This recent purchase has so far proved a good choice for copy quality. The speed is good, if not outstanding, and at under $200 sale price this unit provides color laser capability and a price comparable to some better ink jet units. This model lacks a scanner function, but for someone who has a scanner that poses little problem for the price differential. Overall, a good value.

    I really like the printer. It prints quickly and does not make a lot of noise. The most difficult part was set up trying to set the password for the wi-fi. Once done it works beautifully. We have two laptops, two iPads, and two iPhones wirelessly using it. We are very happy. I should probably rate it at 4.5. The difficulty of wi-fi connection reduces my rating from 5 to 4.5.

    I've used Brother printers over the years and been pleased with them. This was my first purchase of a color Brother printer and I'm equally pleased. It's does a good job printing and was very reasonably priced. I also had no problems setting up Wi-Fi like some reviewers; it was really pretty easy and only took a minute or two. I recommend this printer.
