Printing is sooooo slooooow!

Not as good as earlier model
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loved my old Brother printer. This one is not as good. It is slower, holds less paper, looks like they cut a lot of corners on this one.

So far so good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Has been working fine. The last two fax machines I purchased died after a year. They were HPs. Figured I'd give Brother a try.

Where have you been all my life
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been a long time Canon and HP user and have always had wireless problems. Incomplete printouts, long delays, small paper trays. I finally moved to brother after my printer refused to print. (It finally started to print while I was halfway to the store for it's replacement) The brother printer was easy to set up, easy to use and great print quality to boot. Never an adventure. When I hit the print button from anywhere in the house, the machine begins to print without fail. No more wasted paper and no more frustration!!!
