Still reliable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid business printer. Double sided printing and wireless connection work well. Good printer for what it is. Print definition is less than many might want.

Great for small office
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The scanner & the printer is not as fast as what I used to have. However, since I down size my work & I am not willing to spend twice the money. It performs well & I get my money worth.

Brothers Printer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For over $200 for a black/ white printer it should at least had auto feed for dual sided printing. My old HP was much cheaper and had auto feed 2 sided printing. Very disappointing and misleading on 2 sided printing.

You are not my Brother's Keeper!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this printer since Feb 2024. This printer has been nothing but a pain! I purchased this because I was tired of spending hundreds of dollars on ink every few months, with my xerox printer. If you have a small office and you have people using both wired and wifi, DO NOT purchase this machine. It can only work with one source at a time, either has to be wired/ network for Lan connections, and has to switch to wifi, if someone needs to print via wifi device. Switching back and fort is a headache and the settings get out of wack and then you waste hours trying to get Lan reconnected. If you need a budget friendly modern printer, that can hand wired and wifi traffic, this is not the one you want. Last Brother I'll ever buy!

Worthless
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.UNABLE TO SET UP. DOES NOT CONNECT. First time purchasing the Brother brand. Their customer service (2-3+ hours on hold in queue) and tech support do not assist with anything but swapping out machines. Do NOT buy this printer. We’ve had it for a little over a month and have been unable to use it. Instructions in the box we received are not for our machine. Finally spoke with a rep who had no interest in doing anything but filing a claim. Shameful. I’ll never entertain this brand again

Great Home Office Solution
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been searching for a good printer work, and this one does a great job of covering most of my needs. If you’re looking for an all-in-one solution for your black and white printer needs this will take care of that for you. This was a simple setup, if you have every had to setup a printer before, it’s what you would expect. Plug in the power cord, connect to the wifi, and then add it to your laptop. My mobile devices see it when on the network so I can easily print to it from my iPad and phone. This does a quick job of printing/copying with no issues. I was able to load up 15 pages front and back and this was able to make a copy of them with no issues very quickly. I’ve printed from my PC, iPad, and iPhone over the last couple of weeks and once the job is delivered to the printer it is able to print out everything in a flash. I had to print out some worksheets and this printed out all 8 pages in seconds. This takes care of all of my copying, printing, and scanning needs. I am able to make 2 sided prints/copies without having to manually load up pages. I can scan/copy a bunch of pages in the page loader without having to keep restarting jobs. It’s a fairly small solution so it doesn’t take up a lot of space in my office. Connect to my wifi so that I can wirelessly print to it from anywhere and from most of my devices. All of this and it manages to be pretty snappy as well. Easy recommendation for your home office.

Wish I could return it
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the XL toner, and it lasted only 15 days.

Refresh is not an option
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Do not buy this printer if you don’t want to su BBC scribe to the Refresh service. Because I did not want the service, my printer would not turn on. I was told, before buying, that it was subscription eligible. That was my true. Refresh is not an option, it is mandatory.
