Have had a printer for ages, it takes A4 and A3 paper,.
Saw this printer and had to have it.
Brilliant printer and so much quicker with both sizes in trays.
Never had any trouble with the old printer and being a brother printer, do not think I will with this, quick printing and great prints.
Anyone that needs to make patterns for cross stitch etc, the enlarger gives you the chance to see the symbols a lot bette
I have to review this product as I am so pleased with it. I can not think of any thing else I would like to do.
For price it almost perfect. Thanks Brothe
Great machine on a relatively small footprint compared with some other A3 printers.
Works well on all modes including with an iPhone, however I still cannot directly connect to it successfully with the recommended Android App.
The elephant in the room is the reliance on genuine cartridges and the costs involved, but we all know we’re getting subsidised hardware that we pay back slowly. For me, this printer is worth it.
I can’t speak to the wifi and printing from phones etc, as I have mine on a LAN. Network setup was simple. It is a little on the heavy side, but you can expect that from a printer this size.
I’ve included a couple of pics of some of the printed media bonded to some pine board for scale building construction.
In summery it’s a great printer for my needs and I would buy one again.
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 except we just realised the ink we ordered for it is the wrong one it was a package how did that happe
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.
Having always been a HP printer fan, I was a little sceptical about changing brands. However with two front paper trays plus a rear feed tray and capable of A3 printing, I decided to go ahead. The print speed is fast and the quality excellent. A much better product than its HP equivalent.
This thing is fast for standard A3 and A4 prints! Amazed.
For my another useful feature is the ink tank replacement is from the front – no need to lift up the top like a lot of other SME printers.
Setup had its niggle with the Admin password being on the back. I didn’t know this until I’d got it fully and happily located :-/
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 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.
