Pros

With the built in touch screen, setup is a breeze to your wifi along with changing your default password on the printer. It also has an app for android phones, which is located on a sticker on the back.

It prints quickly and quietly. It holds half a ream of paper in the tray so less frequent restocking.

Brother hl-l3270cdw compact wireless digital color printer with nfc, mobile device and duplex printi. This is a fairly new printer and requires the next progression in brother toner carts from the tn229 series. It still works when you use inexpensive ...  Read More

For a typical home load, i maintain that this thing is amazing. I'm delighted with this printer; the price point is very affordable.



Cons

Really disappointed. Inaccurate and horribly laied out colors. We refuse to open the second printer as it would more than likely end in the same result.

A $400 paperweight. The toner gives the dreaded no toner message. I literally have to throw away a half used toner cartridge because the printer wont function at all as it seems to know the what cartridge it has been using.

Highlights

Quality


So far very happy with the printer.


I am very pleased with the quality and functionality.


I paid full price for this product and received no compensation for the product nor review.


Print quality for pictures and images may not be as well defined and posibly over saturated (i didn't calibrate).

Price


The price was definitely good for a color printer.


I have purchased a few printers before i realized the cost of ink and the cost of the printers that use ink.


The cost is always reasonable, and if you happen to use a third party toner, you aren't penalized for it.

Shipping


And dont worry about shipping back the old one.

Packaging/appearance


It is easy to set up (unpack, plug it in, and follow the prompts on the screen).


For paper jams the toner cartridges must be removed to find the stuck sheet.

Competitiveness


Brother hl-l3270cdw compact wireless digital color printer with nfc, mobile device and duplex printiat less than $300 this prin...  Read More


Other brands also have their ink expire or fight you fiercely if you happen to use an off-brand toner cartridge to save a little money.
