It's great so far!

I work for a small business, and this printer has been very easy to set up and use. We have the printer connected to a wireless router, and it's very easy to use all the functions from several different computers. Instillation was a breeze. The scanning software is easy to use as well. We have Microsoft XP home and 7 pro on our computers and everything works great. From reading some reviews I thought the scanner was going to be a bit of a pain, but it's really not. All that is necessary is to put the paper or photo in either the auto feeder or on the glass plate, select the computer, and then press start. Or you can go back to your computer and start the scanning process from there. The software that comes with the printer will also alow you to turn scanned documents into Word or Excel documents. Also, I read a review about someone having problems with large faxes falling off the printer, but there is a flap that you can pull up to keep the paper from doing that. Faxes come in clearly as well, and I like that the printer will ring for incoming faxes. Our old one did not do that. This machine is replacing a Cannon multifunction device for us, and so far I have like all the features of this one better. I also read reviews that said it was very loud, but it just sounds like a normal printer to me. We’ve had it up and running for about two weeks, and it’s been great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Workhorse

We own several Brother printers in our pharmacy. This one is located in the pharmacy area to print reports, handle faxes, send out faxes, and make copies. The staff and I have no complaints. I it's an extremely resilient printer.
The one issue I might have is that when two jobs are sent to the printer, the printer gets confused and wants us to use the manual tray rather than queuing the jobs, but I don't want to hold that against the hardware - I think that's probably an issue on the computer side. anyway, great buy!

This All-in-One is extremely dependable and easy to use. It is essentially maintenance-free. Misfeeds are virtually non-existent. A great workhorse of a machine.

Very Good Unit

This printer does a fine job and is pretty fast for an all in one. The Fax handles a ton of paper at one time. I think it's rated for 50 sheets, but I've faxed over 75 pages without a hitch. My only complaint is that it prints a lot lighter than I like to see. It's not my primary laser printer, but as a back up it's great. However, it is used as my primary copier, fax, and scanner and does an awesome job at all three.

Great Printer

The printer is very fast and works well. It was a very good value. My only complaint is that my letterhead envelopes jam in the printer. I have to resort to my old inkjet printer for envelopes. Since I use this printer for my in-home business, the inability to print envelopes is a definite negative. Otherwise, the printer is great and meets all my other needs.

I use this Brother All - in One daily and it has performed very well, it is fast, and reliable. I fax and print multiple copies each day and no problems or issues. I would pruchase another when I wear this one out.
