  1. Good all in one multifunction

    As far as all in one printers, this one has it all, duplex printing, fax, copy, scan and it's a laser printer from Brother. I didn't have much trouble setting it up, it does require administrative access to install since you have to bypass the firewall, but I'm in IT and that works out without a problem. On the downside, it's quite slow compared to other printers that we've had. 16ppm is slow these days. On the upside, the wireless connectivity worked without an issue. Read more

    The machine is not what I expected from Brothers. Cheap plastic parts that break. First time I tried changing toner's, off breaks a piece of plastic. Noisy. Poor color output. Read more

    I'm was a loyal Hp fan but after researching this All In One brother I was impressed by it's positive reviews by professionals. So I gave in and bought it for my home office and I never looked back. I love the network functions to where you can scan anything from the printer and send it to your computer. Other plus is the duplex printing works flawlessly along with fast printing and great quality. Also the color prints the same speed as black! You won't get that with ... Read more
