Needed this quickly, as older MFC J5330 dw printer given to relation whose canon printer had packed up.
Delivered in two days. So easy to set up (1/2 hr) including all driver and application updates. Very simple instructions to follow. What I like about this printer is the 250 sheet paper tray which can hold A4 or A3 paper. Very pleased with this printer and Amazon’s service.
Excellent inkjet printer but the set of cartridges is thd same cost as ghd printer
This is crazy….
Guess time will tell but is quick compared to old one. It actually scanned 42 pages in one batch only suppose to do 35
Saving so much time from manually scanning papers one by one
No complaints here
The product is fine, registered and set up ok but not yet able to redeem the cashback offer. Hours on the phone to lots of people over several days. I appear to be missing an email from Amazon with a promotion code to redeem the offer but no-one seems to be able to help me.
Finally decided to try a Brother as have thrown away many short-lived HP, Canon and Epsom’s. Ordered from Curry’s (UK) Jan 3 for Jan 4 delivery. Jan 5 and Jan 6 had 3 web chats to India I realised Curry’s is just lying to me on when it will be delivered for in-store collection. I heard anything from it’s on the van and delivering tonight to it’s being delivered between 2-3pm today which I told web chat India it was 5pm. Reminded me of furniture123.com where they don’t actually have the product in stock but sell it like they do. Amazon is reliable (much like Costco and John Lewis) and got it in 2 days.
I found this printer very easy to install. The only trouble was finding the password which like our wifi hubs it’s on the back of the printer which the instructions didn’t indicate. Print quality is great so far. And wow this prints faster than any other home printer I’ve had before.
Fingers crossed this lasts more than a few years unlike the predecessors which seem to be just throw-aways.
The printer is solidly built and you can tell it is a quality printer. No issues at all in setting it up, quiet – what’s not to like!
Easy to set up with all my devices.
Now i print from my phone, ipad or pc in A1 or A3 in execellent quality.
Fast & quite .
Scanner and photocopier equally good. Would recommend to anyone. My use is moderate daily use for small business needs
I have been using an earlier version (MFC-J5370DW) of this printer for over 3 years and really loved it . . . until recently when it developed an ‘unblockable’ blocked Black ink jet., perhaps due to the inexpensive compatible cartridges I had been using throughout (advertised as “Will not affect your warrantee”). As I was in the middle of quite a large print run that needed to be completed I immediately ordered a replacement — at 279 it was easier than sending it back to Amazon and trying to reclaim on something that could be considered my fault. Next day the shiny, white replacement arrived (the MFC-J5740DW) and, so far, I’m loving it just as much as its predecessor. Apart from the colour I can’t see much difference between the two — except that, of course, the new one won’t accept my stock of cartridges that were used in the old one.
I won’t list all the features that the printer possesses – they’re all in the product description — but the ones that stand out for me are:
The rear feed which is very accessible and handles anything from envelopes, 6″x4″ glossy print paper up to A3.
The two paper drawers which save messing about when I switch from cheap, everyday paper to quality colour print paper.
The fact that it has automatic 2-sided printing and scanning. The latter feature is great if you want to save old documents on a drive rather than in a box file. You just put the pile of documents into the very smooth automatic feeder and get a digital copy of both sides saved as separated pages in the right order. The supplied software that handles this includes outputs in pdf, png, and OCR formats.
I belong to a club for which I produce an occasional newsletter. I design this in Publisher on A4 pages then tell the printer to turn into an 8 page A5 colour booklet. The first time I did this it was accompanied by a bit of swearing before all the pages were correctly ordered and orientated but having saved the print instructions I’ve used the same ones year in year out and just sit by while the printer churns out the required copies.
Setting up the new printer was just as easy as for the old one. There is a decent screen which tells you what to do initially and also shows what to do if there is a (rare) paper jam. Connection to WiFi happened very simply once iI entered the router password.
If the printer has a fault for home-office use it is that is quite large and heavy so you need to be sure you have somewhere to put it and also allow up to an extra 6″ or so for the rear feed which angles out from the back when in use.
In summary, this is a great workhorse for small businesses or the more demanding home user.
