    Does The Job

    I've been using this for just over a month. The print quality is good, and it connects well to my internet for wireless printing. I use it for work and personal printing, and it's been fine for both. I do wish it was a little faster and that it made 2 sided prints without me having to reload the paper. Having said that, given the price point it seems to be a solid little printer.

    I set the printer up with the USB option, as it is a second printer, and dedicated to one computer. It set up easily and works immediately, and prints very fast. The other printer is set up by WIFI. This Brother Printer is more reliable than other recent printers I have had. The scanner function also works well.

    This has been an excellent printer thus far. Easy to set up. Solid performance, good quality color prints. Had it just about 3 months and made A LOT of color documents. Good value for the money. Seems like the ink will cost less using a tank than the cartridges.

    Great basic printer

    Great basic printer. Prints and copies in just a few seconds. Very pleased with the colors when printing photos. Not for use with heavy card stock or anything that can't bend around a roller. We have printed dozens of full color pages and the ink levels are still above 75 percent. Cannot find any third party ink for it but might not care if the ink continues to last. The android phone app works great and is easy to use. This was a major upgrade from my 10 year old Canon. Would definitely buy again

    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.

    Art prints at home

    Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This printer is great for helping me determine what my art looks like once printed in CMYK, which helps me figure out what color values I need to change on my art before sending to my manufacturer. Additionally I can save money by printing my 8.5x11 prints at home rather than at a print shop. Ink management is a little bit of an issue, but 3rd part ink cartridges exist and are cheaper than the brother carts so there is at least some money saved with the ink management issues.

    The printer works well for my home needs. I am pleased with the quality of the output. The scanner has also worked well with minimal fussing. Brother has disappointed me with it's sparse and sometimes contradictory instructions, and poor online help. Still, it does a fine job for a reasonable price.

    Easy to set up. Easy to use. Perfect price point. I don’t print a lot so this was the best printer for me. I needed a new printer that was compatible with my new MacBook. It replaces my 15 year old Brother (which still works, BTW). Can’t beat Brother

    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.

    Have had no problems. Easy to use, and set up. Great price. I don’t do much printing, so this was perfect for me. Would be an issue if I had to do a lot of printing.

    Brother Surpasses HP

    I've had HP printers for years and have aways had problems. In addition, they are ink guzzlers and non-HP ink also caused problems. The HP software was also confusing and my printer would shut down for no apparant reason. I swollowed hard and bought this Brother, with ink cartridges that last several times longer than HP. The software is simple, the print quality is great, and the printer simply works without issues. I am sold, no more HP for me, its Brother all the way.

    Was looking for new printer. I previously had a Brother printer and wanted another. Found this one. Prints well. Set up fairly easy. A little hang up with mobile app but went smoothly on computer and works great. I would buy again.

    The printer (MFC, which means it can also scan and copy) is great both for printing black and white documents and color images or photos (can print on glossy paper as well). It comes with enough ink to print several months. Also I suggest the Brother Refresh EZ Print subscription, which makes your ink volume virtually unlimited by sending you the replacement cartridges, when printer fills it's close to being out of ink.
