Basic, easy to set up, Acceptable prints, if not as good as my older HP. Toner cartridge costs ? We'll see.

Bought an opened but not used and actually was. Set up instructions useless, but I managed anyhow, and happened to have a USB connector (not supplied) and drivers automatically downloaded so didn't need the CD.

Replaced a '90s HP laser printer made unusable due (I'm told) to Windows updates.

Has to be turned on every time you want to print, which is a bore.

Ordered "compatible" toner cartridges, as couldn't find any Brother originals - dunno whether they will work - we'll see.Read full review

But

Sometimes you try to print and it just doesn't seem to be there...however that might be unfair as my home wifi has some feature that randomly hides devices from each other to improve security. Best thing is you can get OEM cartridges v cheap, not that i've needed one yet.Read full review

it took me 2 mins to link to my BT-hub and is working well after one month of use no drop of wifi signal

I use brother product for 20 years and i still use the printer i purchased in 2001attached to an airport , this new one it very easy to setup and dramatically cheap to buy. Toner for these machines it normally non expensive and they do not have fussy chip that force you to pay 50 pounds for a toner cartridge.
I am using the printer for 2 months now and no drop in wifi signal or loss of connection.Read full review

Compact and cost effective

Nicely sized for a laser printer. Good quality and fast printing at an economic rate. Drivers were easily available on the internet although it does come with a disk. Easy to instal. Wifi connection is excellent. I can highly recommend this productRead full review

Small and useful

Had it up and running for a few weeks now and had no problems. Simple setup and easy to use mono printer. No frills, no bells or whistles, prints mono and is reliable, just what I wanted.

Not all that it seems

1) Compact is only true when closed. What photos don't show is that both top cover and bottom cover must be open for it to work. paper isn't in a paper tray, it is in a slot at the base of the printer. This makes the printers footprint just as big as a normal printer
2) There is no USB cable supplied so there is an extra cost if you don't already have one
3) It may print wirelessly but not directly from iOS devices, there is no AirPrint function, you have to use Brother's own app which is a nuisanceRead full review

Brilliant little printer

An excellent, value for money printer. Easy to set up and blissfully quick clear printing. Black and white only, but more than adequate for my usage.

Cool little printer

The instructions recommended connecting a USB cable to set up, but i tried wirelessly setting it up (since no cable was included) and it worked like a dream and has been printing from all devices ever since! We will see how long a print cartridge lastsRead full review

Easy to use, quick to print

My deskjet ink ran out, and replacement cartridges are at rip off prices. Laser print is much more affordable, so I ordered this and fell in love with it. So easy to use, directions easy to follow, prints in nanoseconds. For routine say to day printing, this is fab. If you want fancy stuff, this won’t suit. Read full review
