    I’ve had this printer for 2years + now and have never had a problem. Cartridges are pricey but reliability is the key issue for me

    This is a great color laser printer from Brother. I always like that a laser printer is more dependable that an inkjet printer. The quality is great and it prints fast. I connected it to my home network and now I can print from all my Apple devices. Overall a great printer, a must have especially for the price!!!

    What I wanted was a no frills but solid performing color laser printer, and it seems to be the perfect choice. I've had no issues at all! Setup was simple, packaging was great, and print quality and speed are everything I expected. I'm very happy with the printer thus far and would recommend it to anyone with similar needs.

    Works fine as a reasonably priced color laser printer. Much better than ink jet. Will not scan fax or copy.

    Purchased this for end-of-year printing needs for small bookkeeping business. Very quick, crisp copies, even when printing 2-sided reports. No paper jams, accepted odd-sized/textured tax forms, and black "starter" toner lasted through at least 4000 pages. Haven't used color printing yet. Wireless setup was instant and effortless and works faultlessly with multiple laptops and mobile devices.

    I came in looking for a color laser printer and pretty much wanted an HP ... until I saw the prices, and quite frankly the HP was too heavy to load into my car. So I seriously looked at the Brother. For the price, it is a very nice option. I've been using it and it did not disappoint. One shock, however, was the price of the toner cartridges, the 3 color and 1 black total $254 which is $50 more than the printer itself! Ouch! Didn't know that.

    I was looking to replace my inkjet printer that was costing too much money to replace dried ink cartridges. The price on this laser printer was too good to pass up! 1 downside, setting up the printer preferences for printing photos, laser printers require tweaking to get really nice looking photos
