Trying to copy unusual paper sizes is maddening! No instructions in user's guide as to how unusual-sized paper goes into the rear paper feeder.

This printer prints well and is quiet. However, the software is terrible. They should have Epson write their software. The Epson software on my old Epson MFP was intuitive and easy to use. The software on both of my new Brother printers is the opposite. Also, the instructions provided with both printers (laser and inkjet) was minimal and sometimes, it is a pain to search online for the solutions to issues.

I bought this printer to replace my aging inkjet printer, from a competing manufacturer. The cost per page for ink is a fraction of my old printer. The new ink tank system is far superior to my old printer utilizing foam ink cartridge couplng system. The print speed is amazing and the ability to print on 11' x 14" ledger paper is unheard of at this price point.
Easy to set up. Super easy to use. No paper jams. Transitions to Ledger paper automatically. Takes up less desktop space due to paper exiting in landscape instead of portrait.
