Customer Ratings & Reviews

So many things I like about it. It's smaller than my old HP Envy. So I can have the paper catch out all the time and not worry about it hanging over the desk. I like that it has 4 cartridges, to me the print just looks better. Easy access to the print tanks. It's fast and quiet. The ink subscription plan is going to be cheaper monthly for me. Set up was really easy and didn't take long. I feel like I really researched printers for home use and got the best one out there. The one glaring bad thing that I've noticed so far is that it's only double sided when you put the paper back in to be printed on the other side. It's really annoying, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Overall, I really like it and am glad I chose it.

Its a great printer so far. Setup was fairly easy, I had to complete it on my laptop versus my mobile. But since setup, I'm able to do everything via the mobile app. Print quality and speed are great. I love being able to print from anywhere. It's quiet which wasn't necessary but is nice. And the footprint is convenient for a small home office. We've always had HP printers but the ink has to be changed frequently and they usually don't last long. This printer is well built and I like the ink system. I'd highly recommend this printer.

Good small printer. Works wonderfully for what I need. Colors look good. Easy to setup and easy to use. Haven't used the scanner yet. I did buy the cord to connect directly to the computer because the wi-fi was difficult to work with.

This Brother printer has served me well. I do not print all that much but everything I have ever printed has been perfect. Scanning is easy to use and allows me to save and email items. It is quiet and compact. It fits in the small area I have perfectly.

I have had this printer for a few months and I really like it! I did not have problems setting it up and enjoy using it. I like the fact that if the color cartridges run out, you can still use the black cartridge. The cartridges are a little pricey; have lasted a long time; but I don't print that much. It is very easy to use the app to check on ink levels or make an adjustment before you print. The printer is smaller, so it doesn't take up a lot of space. I bought it on sale and it was very affordable. I read a lot of reviews before deciding on this printer and trust the Brother brand.

Easy to set up on my laptop, but never could get it to work on my phone. I have used it several times and for a little printer it works pretty well. I love that there isn't a ton of wires running from it.

Needed a printer with the pandemic, and always buy Brother printers. Seems well built, setup was a bit of a pain as it didn't come with a USB cable and the app wasn't very intuitive, but got everything going and all in all I'm happy. Physically larger than expected (coming from laser printers), but still reasonably sized. Prints come out great, no streaking, ink refills will be cheap. Would recommend!

This printer scanner is great. The print quality is great and the size is perfect for home or school printing needs. The scanner work great and is the perfect personal printer/scanner for home use.

Prints are amazing quality. Decided to try because of tank. Less costs than other brand with tanks and works better in my opinion. Haven’t used much ink as far as I can tell. Printing worksheets and color pages for camp activities and still going. Not huge either a big plus.

A printer with liquid ink usually go for $300 plus. For $100 dollars you ink inside the box for two years and it is so easy to install. It is also not bulky as other printers and it is also a 4-1, this printer is a needle in a haystack, do not think twice in buying it.

One of my co workers asked me to help her get this for her grand daughter and they love it. Copy & Prints clearly and comes with enough ink to last you a year. The size is just right it's not too big or too small.

Easy to set up. Bought for home/personal use. Doesn’t take up too much space on my desk, so plenty of room left for my desk calendar & other items. Replaces old Epson printer. Happy with this purchase.

Simple to set up.. use.. and order ink. Neutral color, NOT too big/bulky. Good price.

Very basic and compact printer, is very easy to set up the and quality of print was great. Don't know if ink will last a year or not but will find out.

The printer is small and compact which is what I need for the small space I have for it. It prints very clear and fast.

Satisfactory. Occasionally it picks up two or three sheets when printing the first page of a small series of pages (i.e. print 1,3,5,7 9). Also, I don't know how (if possible or needed) to turn it off. Eventually, it shuts down. Printing is top quality, and I like the speed that it kicks out each page. Size is good, fits easily in a crowded workspace. And paper is contained within the machine, not on an appendage platform in the back of the machine. Follow the setup directions that does take a little time and to enable it to print, buyer must go online and download software for it to print.

This printer prints beautifully. The unit is small and perfect for my sewing room.

This unit does everything I need it to do, and its size is ideal for the space I have. I have always trusted Brother products for their quality and dependability, and MFC-J1205W is no exception. The INKvestment concept is one of the best provisions of ink on the market today. This unit fills its niche optimally.

Needed a small printer dedicated to the upstairs laptop, which niche this fills well. Color is not outstanding and it wasn't as easy to set up as it maybe should have been, but for the price and functionality it serves its purpose.

Doesn’t take up too much space is simple to use. Comes with app to help user
