Review: Best Printer we've ever owned! - I bought this Brother Printer after another Brand updated and then would not recognize the INK Cartridge. I was really aggravated, it was 2 months old. This one said it came with a years supply of INK. Well I'm here to say I've been really impressed with the quality of the printer. It's just now running low on INK and we've done more printing than the average household( way More). We've had this for about 8 months and the cost of new ink is not bad. It prints from our phone, iPad , as well as the PC. It connects with the network easily, setup was a breeze, and no bigger than most other home printers. And the paper cartridge holds about half a ream of paper, meaning you don't have to be refilling it often. In short, I'm convinced this is the best home printer we've ever bought. UPDATE: it's Now September 9th 2025, we've had this printer almost a year, WE PRINT A LOT. it said we needed ink about a month and a half back, I kept printing till it stopped today. I'm really impressed. we've gone through a couple reems of paper and it just kept going. until the tanks were completely empty! Absolutely the BEST printer I've ever owned!
Review: Good cheap printer. - The printer (renewed version) came from Brother direction and is factory refurbished. It looked completely new. The printer also came with a full set of new cartridges. It is replacing a previous brother printer and this one is much lighter in size. I love the scanner functionality. The printing is fast and not noisy at all. Installation took a bit as it is fully based on the app but not too cumbersome. One thing of note as the first pages did not print anything. I had to run the deep head cleaning (from the app) atleast 3-4 times before all the colors came back to life. No issues since then.

### ⭐ Dubious
*by M***A on January 14, 2023*

I was worried about the software not being designed for the printer. The software that is downloaded to pc says to press the wireless button, but there isn't any wireless button. I searched on google for the wireless button for that model and google suggests there isn't one. The cell app similarly says I must press the wireless button, but there isn't any button that says wireless on the printer. Youtube says to download the app, and press the 'stop' button so the printer shows on the cell app. But the cell app finds out what my printer model is, and won't let me proceed unless I press the wireless button. The app forces me to lie about pressing the wireless button to proceed. I was later able to find the wireless button. The wireless icon on the button was the same color as the button, and was quite difficult to see. The software then worked. Under a month after purchase, my wireless router randomly switched the passwords, disconnecting all my gadgets, and costing my many hours on tech support resetting everything, likely for the 3rd instance of my AT&T router resetting all the passwords and costing me many hours on tech support with other organizations whos gadgets no longer worked. My Brother printer stopped working because the AT&T router was entitled to switch the passwords about to mysterious passwords. I could not reset the wireless information on the brother printer using any guides on google or in other searches. When I tried to contact Brother, the brother-usa.com website didn't actually have any way to reach anyone. The contact us button confirmed that there was chat and phone, but no buttons were obvious that were the actual chat or phone. Google listed a mysterious phone number. Position in Que: 25 Estimated Wait Time: 19 minutes ------ ------ On 2-5-23 I located a file associated with a Brother printer I bought on Amazon, and was able to erase part of the file, and this allowed my wireless internet to work decently for the first time since a 7pm 2-3-23 crash of my internet that I reported to IC3. But, the Brother files keep re-appearing, and are associated with wireless traffic that I cannot control. I had returned the Brother printer quickly, a few days ago, after I noted that their customer service was not available, and after the printer could not sync with my wireless in numerous days of attempts. "Software update notification" was impossible to uninstall despite returning the printer. It was associated with a cantonese or japanese script error message during a force deletion of some of the files in the folder. My google maps suddenly started working, slightly, at more locations, with the Brother file partially removed. But on 2-5-23 a 4:15 pm, I was again not 'allowed' to use internet, a common effect for me as a disabled person, where in I am targeted first in cyber crimes for being disabled. I was able to force close Steam, and the wireless was working again. But at 7:00 pm on the 5th, the wireless was again not working, with no access to websites, or IC3, and I was able to get it working by erasing another Brother file, in programfiles(x86)/Browny02. Again, I was not allowed to erase the file completely. But, deleting the componants that I was allowed to delete did then mean I was allowed to use the internet despite being disabled.
