Easy set up.

Our small law office has two Brother printers and I have one at home. They take a real beating and keep on working. Cost of operation is lower by far than other printers. The oldest is now six years old and has printed tens of thousands of documents with zero problems. I recommend highly. Easy set up. Doesn't require IT person to set up.
Works quickly and does job efficiently. It's loud though, and the extra tray costs as much as the printer itself so I didn't buy it. It is worth the price, however and I would recommend it.
The printer is quiet and fast, and I'm quite happy with it so far. However, the utility software pops up every time I print from Microsoft Word. Or rather, Windows asks permission for it to run whenever I print. I click No, and everything works. But it's irritating. One of these days I'll call Brother and ask how to stop that.
I am a new owner of this particular Brother printer and so far, it has performed very well and I especially like the "duplex" feature. It also prints text very sharp and there are a myriad of fonts to choose from, which is also a plus. The only negative aspect I can think of is the printer seems to leave some toner residue on the paper, but it is not really too prevalent. Overall, it has been a very good investment and suits my needs well.
Quiet, fast, smooth double sided printing, stylish look. We're a busy service dept at a marina - need a printer that gets a lot of work. This one has been outstanding!!
After 20 or so days of use, I get a 'Print Unable 09' which is the Brother version of the Windows 'Blue Screen of Death' I like the unit and it prints very well when it works
