This printer doesn't suck!
I thought it was the holy grail -- to find a printer that doesn't suck. I found it here! Not only does it NOT suck, I actually hug it every time it prints.1. Easy as hell to set up, you don't even have to use the mobile app (but I did set that up also and it was a few extra steps but also easy). Airprint works instantly.2. So fast, so quiet. I had a Canon MX something that would take about a few minutes to think about printing, and then another minute to print, and the page would usually jam in the middle of the job. The Brother has NO such issues. The Canon could take two days to print a 60 page document (because I had to keep taking breaks from unjamming it and resetting the job so as not to throw it through the window). Those days are gone forever!3. Color is not going to be like a photo printer -- it does not take photo printer, please note -- but color is fast and bright and perfectly acceptable for a document (vs. a photo).4. My setup is a home office, my printing needs are relatively light, so I agonized over the cost vs. use but when a printer JUST WORKS these days, it's so miraculous that I decided the cost was worth it and used the Affirm payment plan to make the finances work.5. I did not have to sign up for the ink program, my uses are so light it would be an unjustifiable expense.I spent about a month researching and comparing and reading all of you good people's reviews -- some of which are super funny -- of this printer and others, and finally the day came where I couldn't stand even the thought of trying to print on the Canon so I pulled the trigger. I know I'm not alone in the "I hate my printer" category but I might now be one of a dozen people in the "I love my printer" category.It arrived in a speedy timeframe and it was packaged so well that if it had been a baby, it would have slept without waking from a single bump.Brother is my brand and this printer is 5 stars!

Easy and reliable that’s all I want in a small business printer
Printer is relatively compact, connected easily to my wifi, and has reasonable response time (typically about a 15-20 second delay before beginning to print). I find the ink lasts through a good amount of copying. The color is nice and great for standard color printing (not for photos). The scanning works great and I often use mine as a photocopier. It has limited memory so you can only scan about 5 pages at a time then wait for a few pages to print before scanning more pages. I like that I can print from my iPhone just as easy as from my laptop. For the money it is one of the best small business printer/copier you can buy.

expensive but a great product
expensive but worth the price, best software that is maintained, great scanning and printing both one sided and two. Easy to set up and works with both 2.4 and 5 ghz WiFi

DO NOT BUY!!! Toner costs are insane! Every month to a month and a half.
This was a first laser printer because we were tired of ink cartridges but this is way worse!!! The toner sensors is jacked even though there is powder in the toner the printer won't allow printing and there is no override to tell the printer there is still toner you must buy more toner cartridges regardless of how much toner remains. I called brother and there is nothing they can do. It does print well but be aware the operating cost of this machine is insanely high!!! For a $500 printer and $300 monthly on toner it is worth buying a different brand printer that will allow printing until the toner is empty and prints blank sheets is worth it if you can find one doing research now.

An excellent color laser printer!
This appears to be an excellent color laser printer. Not only that, but it is a scanner, copier, and fax machine. I have been using it now for several weeks, and it is absolutely wonderful. It makes my old HP Color Laser printer look bad (thankfully the Brother color laser printer is replacing the HP!) The Brother printer is much quieter than the HP, and so far so much more reliable. And the colors are more vibrant than the HP. I highly recommend this Brother color laser printer! And the networking capability is a huge plus as well!

Pain to set up, but good home stand-in to the big corp. office printer.
I'm only a week in on this printer. The setup was not very intuitive. I used our home WiFi for connection, but I couldn't get the scanning to work from the machine. After speaking with tech support, I was told that the drivers couldn't be installed given my version of Windows 11. Bummer. Ended up connecting via USB...now I got my quick scanning. This complication was my primary reason for the 4-star vs. 5.On the up side, the printer is cool looking. Once set up (again, a pain in the...), it is super easy to scan. The automatic bed feeder allows me to stack a bunch of papers in it and scan them quickly. The autoloading scanner scans both sides in one pass. Very clean! The bed scanner is very nice too. Software that came with is alright. Nothing to write home about, but does allow you to customize what your scan from machine options are. For example, I have my scan to OCR button produce a PDF that opens in Adobe. I have the image scan button send the file to Adobe Photoshop for editing. The general scan to file button is set up to send the file to a predetermined folder as a JPG. This as all super cool and pretty easy to set up. Printing is fine. Colors are duller than I was expecting, but I don't have anything to reference to other than the $1.00 per page color print from FedEx Office. Excited about the printer for my home. This is a downsized comparison to the fancy $1,200 a month leased super machines in most corporate offices that I'm used to.

Another great Brother printer!
I have 3 Brother printers, two printers AIO color inkjets and one is a color laser. This is my fourth and I always look at the brother printers because they are workhorse printers. have excellent quality prints and are fail-safe. I never update the firmware and always use the lesser expensive toners and refillable cartridges which work great. This printer is nice as usual for Brother printers and the one thing that was a selling point for this model was that it will do "SINGLE PASS" double sided prints, copies and scans which makes it a little quicker. Overall and nice printer that is all you will need if running a medium size office and want great fast output and reliable low-cost prints and supplies.
