I bought this printer from another major retailer, and the printer arrived with a broken fuser unit, that is, it was unusable from the start. I had to make arrangements to return it, and the experience was quite disappointing.

Just so you folks know there is no USB cable and you have to buy it separately and the ink cartridge that comes with it will only print $250 pages. Really annoying because I needed the printer urgently and I expected the USB cable to be a mater of course. Don’t make the same mistake.

Sorry AMAZON, I got this for $60 plus $5 shipping at Staples. I got it the next day unlike AMAZON so call Snail free shipping. One reason I don’t like AMAZON is their super slow free shipping compared to other sites where there free shipping takes only a few days. I bought this as a repalcement of my nightmare Samsung CLP 300 color laser printer. The damn samsung lasted for a year and I’ve been from hell and back with that beast. even thought this Brother was also cheap, I never had problems with Brother products in the past. I will only get a Brother from now on.

Has all the good features mentioned by other reviewers. However, clearing a paper jam and changing the toner can be very frustrating. You have to remove the toner cartridge and drum to get at a paper jam, and these components do not come out easily. They don’t simply slide out as shown in the diagram. I’ve had to jiggle them for half an hour before I could get them out. For this reason alone I would not recommend this printer.

I’ve had nothing but trouble with this printer since I bought it 6 months ago at Office Max. It allows me print off the web ONLY if I’m using Explorer, rather than my normal browser (Mozilla). It won’t print jpegs, and even in regular Word documents it gets confused if the doc is over 30 pages. I’ve wasted a ton of paper trying to get documents printed completely and correctly.
I took it back to Office Max and they replaced it with the same model for free, but the same problems remained, even though I reloaded the software. When I called customer support, their only advice was–”When you want to print a jpeg, save it in a Word document” or, “Don’t use Mozilla.” There’s no advice about how to prevent it from skipping pages.
Even though it’s still under warranty, there’s no way to remedy the situation. If I send it back, I’ll be without a printer for a month or so–all I can do is to keep using it until I just can’t stand it any more.
