I picked up an old brother black and white laser a few years ago though, and learned to like it for what it was. A good, cheap, reliable printer.
The time came to upgrade my HP inkjet that was feeling its age, and I looked for color lasers. This was the one that best fit my budget, and so I chose to take the leap from HP to Brother.
I love it. I am a sporadic printer, so my printers will often spend weeks between print jobs. This Brother spools up in seconds and prints it perfectly. Text. Pictures. Anything I send it with no streaking or anything. The pictures look great, even on standard paper.
I love that it does double-sided printing automatically to save paper. I love that it has a good flatbed scanner. Every part of this printer does exactly what I want it to do, and I am completely happy with this purchase.
One of my best Christmas Presents. :)
But I do have a list of complaints--things I wish Brother did differently on this printer, although if I had it to do over again with only the choices and prices that were available, I would HANDS DOWN buy it again--no question! That's why I give it 5 stars, despite my gripes:
--I hate the way the scanner has a gap all the way around the platen! Scanning is NOT just to make copies, so do NOT limit the scanner by the printer’s edge limitation…which by the way, can’t they overcome that in 3+ decades?!
--I scan checks into my bank account. I can get around this, but it's a hassle EVERY TIME I scan a check.
--I've had to scan in documents that were printed into that gap area on both sides. It caused a hassle!:
--I scanned it twice, once fully including the left side into the scanned area, then fully on the right.
--Then I went to Microsoft Publisher, overlapped, cut, then matched images, combined, and saved as JPEG.
That's a TON of work for what should have been a simple, one-pass scan!
If this weren't rare for me, I'd DEFINITELY send the thing back and buy a different printer for the scanner!
--I WISH it had a paper feeder for the scanner. This would:
--At least solve the top-bottom gap problem.
--Enable scanning longer documents.
--And most obviously, allow scanning of a stack of documents, instead of one at a time.
BUT I suppose this was one of those built-in limitations to force purchase of a more expensive model.
Once again, while I REALLY WISH they’d make these improvements, all things considered FOR the price, I’d make the same choice all over again.
I don't have to print things very often. Inkjet printers that sit tend to clog. With an inkjet I would spend 10-15 minutes unclogging the printer just to print one black and white page and in the process use a whole bunch of ink running the unclogging process and printing test pages.
I bought this printer for printing black and white and color documents on occasion and for that purpose it works very well. It warms up quickly and prints out multiple sheets quickly.
Document Print Quality:
The documents it produces are crisp and clear whether in color or black and white. I've never had an issue with them.
Photo Printing:
Consumer laser printers have four colors, essentially they use CMYK, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key (Black). This will never produce high quality photo output. There can be no expectation that this is a photo printer and so I'm not dinging it for the photo output. To be clear the photo output is not good, you do not want this for printing photos.
Toner Life:
The toner cartridges it comes with are basically starter cartridges that don't even have the life of the standard cartridges they sell. You'll want to buy a black cartridge right away. If you do a lot of color document printing you will find you need the other three pretty quickly as well. After that with the regular cartridges toner life seems reasonable if not exceptional.
Scanning/Copying:
It has a flat bed scanner that can produce 1200dpi output. From a layman's point of view this seems exceptional to me. The scans it produces are so detailed at this high resolution that you can use it like a microscope. It has no feed though and so it's only useful for scanning a few pages at a time, which is all I ever usually need to scan. It also works fine for copying.
The other limitation is that the scanner will only accept up to A4/Letter size documents.
Feed Types:
The printer has one paper tray that accepts up to legal size paper. If you need to print on different types of paper or sizes all the time then this might not be the printer for you.
There is one manual feed option on the front that accepts one sheet at a time. It can be a bit tedious to get it to grab onto the sheet at times. I'm probably just impatient though. Overall the manual feed is fine for printing one off items on occasion. I use it for printing one off labels.
Printing On Heavy Stock:
The proper way to print on heavier stock is using the manual feed, but even using that method I would not use this for printing on card stock. The heat produced by the printer causes the stock to curl quite a bit.
Connectivity:
I use a Windows PC and use the printer wirelessly on my home network. It hasn't given me any issues with connectivity and it was relatively painless to setup. I've also been able to print things directly from my iPhone to the printer.
Summary:
For what I need this thing to do it does it well. If you try to get it to more things than just print black and white and/or color documents it's not going to be that great.
If you need to scan lots of things, it's not for you. If you need to print on lots of different mediums it's not for you. If you want to print photos, it's not for you.
Top reviews from other countries
Printing quality is awesome.
When in sleeping mode I do not need to manually switch it on in order to start printing my job... It's always on stand by. That's exactly what I expect.
Even though it's on a pricier side in my opinion it's totally worth it. Did my due diligence and for several weeks I searched for the best all in one colour printer that has Automatic Sheet Feeder, Ethernet option (not just Wi-fi), NFC (you can print straight from your phone without connecting to the Wi-fi network) and overall customer reviews. This printer beats all the competitors. On top of it it's cartridges are not that expensive compared to other brands. I use it for my small home office and my kids online homework assignments (tired of drawing them picuters daily).
Definitely recommend this printer.
Delivered in time. Installation was a breeze. Connected all phones and computers by wi-fi. The printing quality is very good, we are gratefully pleased with it. Hopefully, it will last for a long time.
1) With most new laptops we do not have a dvd/cd port and what does Brother ship for setup? a dvd. In 2023 you would think companies would know this and ship a USB card instead.
2) Since I could not use the DVD for setup had to go through internet. Printer would not recognize WIFI
3) Since printer would not connect thru WIFI I needed to use USB cable - WHICH DID NOT come with printer - good thing I had a cable from old printer
4) When installing from internet, the installation stalled at 90% - reboot and restart
5) After 3 hours of playing with printer, it suddenly connected to WIFI
If I did not have a bit of computer know-how, this would have been a huge headache for my wife to setup.
However, once printer was setup we tested printing from laptop, android 7 pro, and apple cell phones with great success.
If it once for tough installation I would have given 5 stars.
