Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far, so good. I definitely like it better than HP which has gotten terrible in recent years. I would recommend.

Everything so far has worked pretty seamlessly. Good quality for the price.

So far, so good. I use the printer for borderless art photographs.

A very nice home office printer. Easy to set up and works well.

After 2 HP printers that were pure junk out of the box it was time to try a different brand. This one works way better than the HP's. I realize HP set a very low bar to surpass but we are happy with the purchase. And the ink is cheaper too.

How come there is no book manual. I got one on my on my other brothers printer. I will not try to print out over 500 pages. A manual should come with every printer. Not very happy at all with this. To make me happy send me a manual.

We like as it runs faster than our Epson that stopped working. Setup and connection was easy.

Great printer, Easy to set up and print very clear.

This is a terrific home multi-function printer. It does everything I need it to do. I am not very tech savvy and I found the setup to be very easy.

Easy to set up and start printing via wifi right away. Compact and practical. Good value for the price.

Great for the price. Printing photos better than expected.

Works great for home and easy install too! Wish it had come with usb cord

Doesn’t look or feel like a quality printer. Little noisy while printing

I purchased this printer to replace an older HP ink just because of the Brother reputation and my past experience with my Brother laser jet printer. When the printer does connect over wireless and can be found as an air printer by my iphone it works great and print quality is good. But it takes multiple tries to get connected over wifi even using my macbook air sitting tight next to the printer, making it very frustrating to use.

Prints fast and sharp. It says 28 characters remaining.

The Brother MFC-J1170DW Wireless Color All-in-One Inkjet printer is a nice compact size. Everything you need in one compact printer product. Unpacking the BROTHER was easy ... unlike other printing products that I recently acquired, this one had minimal packing and a lot less tape securing the printer inside the box with all of its styrofoam. Setup was easy. Instructions were easy to read and understand. However, I really hate where the USB and ETHERNET cables connect .... inside the printer, under the scanning area, and the cable snake around inside the printer, before they exit out the back. Why didn't Brother just have connectors on the back or side of the printer instead of this elaborate, inconvenient, "inside the printer" connection. I ended up using wireless which is ok. Downloading the Brother software from their "setup" site was easy, but it didn't work. Even though the correct printer model was selectable in the software, it never found it during setup. I ended up downloading this printer's software from Brother's usual site and it worked just fine, but I had already wasted about 20 minutes of my time using the nonfunctional software from their "setup" site, that was noted in their Setup Instructions inside the box. After getting past the initial software issues, the printer seems to work real well wirelessly. Quick response between the laptop and printer. Quality is good, BUT I wish they had more settings on the "print quality", like an economic setting that most printers have nowadays. I didn't try the faxing capability due to no landline. Overall, the BROTHER MFC J1170DW is a nice, inexpensive wireless printer. It will be interesting to see how long the printing cartridges last since there was no data on their or their "test" packaging.

I was able to set it up quickly and connect it to my macbook, iphone and ipad.
