Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Bought the refurbished unit. Refurbished items sometime make me nervous, but this one came like new!

It just does its job and doesn't complain. The only complaint i have is it goes into deep sleep after only a couple of minutes. This was resolved by installing the actual brother printer drivers.

Reliability, size and thrifty operation. Scanners are oddly expensive at the moment though you can get a canon flatbed for under a hundred. It's easy to set-up, prints well, and i am so happy not to have deal with cartridges any more.

Wireless connectivity makes printing a breeze with chrome books and phones. Plug in, navigate to and select wps for the network and then press the wps button the router.

The print quality is unrivaled. The duplex print workes amazing and saves paper.



Cons

Printer jams up when printing on two sides of a page. Brother customer support is terrible. Not happy at all.

Quality


Overall, very impressed with the quality, performance, and ease of installation / use.


Since it’s a laserjet it’s pretty quick to print and the quality of the printed documents is excellent.


The product came basically new for a fraction of an actual new printer.


For the the laptops in the house and the phone, the wireless worked flawlessly by connecting with the router password.

Price


My color/copier is a brother and its been flawless for years and the refurb price was terrific so i decided to take the chance.


This printer is exactly what i needed at a great price.


You don't normally get all that for a low cost printer.

Shipping


I've only had to do one print job this far, but it was fast and clear.


Outstanding, too bad amazon decided to hold the order for over a week before shipping; other than that this is perfect being bo...  Read More


Color is overrated for basic business and shipping needs.

Competitiveness


So much nicer than an ink printer at a similar price.


So much better than a cheap inkjet.


I was iffy about buying a refurb printer but boy were my doubts squashed quickly.


I have to echo the other 5-star reviews for this product.

    I was just looking for an inexpensive basic wifi laser printer to replace my old hp laserjet 1018i usb printer which still works but i wanted the wifi


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If i have to pick on something it would be that it has a fan and so makes some fan noise sometimes


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It usually only turns on whilst printing but on a few occasions will be on otherwise


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So its a little bit noisy compared to the old hp laserjet 6l and 1018 that i replaced which had no fans at all


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My old printers were much slower too


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I assume the fan is to draw excess heat from the fuser area that has to work had to maintain the page printing rate of the printer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Printer shuts off if not used within a certain time period


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Nothing in the manual about this
