I have a six year old monochrome Brother that has printed 17,000 copies so buying the new printer was an easy decision. Fast, the color is great and no more ink to buy.
So far this printer is working very well for our intended purposed. Easy to setup and print quality is good. For those who want to know if this printer can handle card stock, the answer is yes. Although, I only printed using card stock (110 #s) once but had no problem with the paper passing through using manual feed. Not sure if it will handle multiple passes. For occasional DIY greeting cards, this printer should be able to handle it.
This is the second Brother printer for me. The first on worked for years before needing enough work to make updating a choice. Although I haven't used the scanner, the print and copy functions are so good that I will probably not use my stand-alone copier.
I had reached my limit with inkjet. I was tired of paying a fortune for ink only to have it not work when I needed it. I just wanted something that WORKED. I spent a day or two fairly obsessed, reading a number of reviews about laser printers. I learned enough that when I saw the features of this machine, the price, the price of ink ongoing I snatched it up. I make the right choice. It installed quickly. I just had to follow instructions that were easily understood and voila, I now have a printer that just WORKS. When I need something printed I just make a few clicks and there it is, no matter what device I'm using. Very happy.
