    Good prinrer for the price. The only thing negative was having to down load an app to my phone for it to connect to the router.

    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.

    Basic workhorse but don't expect much!

    This printer is simply "okay" in my opinion. It's a very basic, no frills all in one printer. Will it get the job done? Yes. But don't expect much. For the average basic person, this printer will do. However, for me, the colors are very washed out and muted, in fact, the colors look like "draft mode" compared to prints from other competing printers. Even other Brother machines I've used print better than this. This machine doesn't print double sided on its own, but for a reasonable printer that won't break the bank it'll do the trick. This machine is LOUD. I will say, the printer starts right up to print, but it's so loud (not like it should matter - but it's annoying to me). Setup was straight forward. For me, I had a USB Print cable, so it made setup easier because I was able to transfer the WiFi settings to the printer this way (there is no LCD screen on the printer). You don't need a USB Cable to set it up, though - but it does speed things up. Other than that, it's a relatively zippy little machine but for the fact that the colors look so washed out, - THIS IS NOT FOR PHOTO PRINTING. When I printed a 4x6, I was highly disappointed. All in all, are there better options for the money? Absolutely. However, if you want a simple, no frills device that will print, copy and scan - this will do the trick.

    I'm not a fan of printers. This one is significantly better than I expected. Download of the currently required software could have been easier. No option to completely turn off power but it prints easily from my laptop when in another room.
