Updating this review after 18 months of ownership.
This printer has proven to be just what we had hoped for: it's silent when idle, more compact than I had expected for all its features, and *everything* it does it does well. Print speed is excellent, print quality is excellent, scanning is very easy (and well integrated into Windows), connectivity through WiFi or LAN or USB all seems to work correctly, no compatibility problems with any of our devices. And I've completely ceased worrying about having to replace printer ink--because it's just ridiculously economical. I purchased the package of printer-and-two-years-of-ink, and as expected after 18 months I still have plenty of replacement cartridges left.
There are almost too many reviews available for any printer here on Amazon: if you read enough you'll find reviews of any printer that say either "this thing cured my cancer" or "it came to life and ate my dog"--and so, depending on whether you have cancer or beloved pets, it's easy to get steered in response. As for my family, this printer is working a treat and I'm glad we bought it.
This printer has proven itself to be:
* Utterly silent and unobtrusive when not printing (no fans, no lights), and very quiet even when printing
* Extremely fast--far faster than I had expected, both in color and B&W printing and in scanning
* Almost unbelievably efficient in ink usage
* Completely and utterly trouble-free: no paper jams, no networking connectivity issues

![Marginal print quality + lots of other problems [really should be 2 stars at the most]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/x-locale/common/transparent-pixel._V192234675_.gif){kind=tracking}
Marginal print quality + lots of other problems [really should be 2 stars at the most]
I just got this printer, and looked forward to having a great machine that would take care of my print needs, and so far (2 days) I have been overwhelmed with problems. First, and I agree with others who may have been surprised, this thing is BIG, and heavy. After some rearranging in my small home office area, I fit it in and I like it, it looks cool! Now, about the problems (and some successes). I did not really have a problems setting it up on the network, I'm not 100% I got it right, but it is listed on my homegroup, and will print from any network PC. Yea for me! But a major problem came up, I have printed a total of 6 pages so far, and I got a paper jam. I cleaned it up, removed the torn paper as best as I could, but it still says "error paper jam", it won't even let me turn the machine off. I will try looking for some tiny scrap of paper that may be hiding in there, but I'm not too happy with a paper jam after only 6 pages, I hope it gets better. I will update this review as I go along, but so far, it's a mixed bag, and I hope it gets better.NOT BETTER! (UPDATE); More problems! It seems to have gotten over the paper jams because now it won't even print on command....well, it will print, but only when it feels like it. It won't print photos from the wp paper feed, in fact it won't even recognize the back paper feed (WP). It prints about 1/4 of the jobs I have sent it so far--it just sits there, I wait and wait, then I have to cancel the job and start over again. It did print a photo on Brother gloss photo paper (hooray), but the quality was beyond bad, and the ink was almost running off the page......UGLY! I wish I could find a decent printer. I'm going to try working with Brother support tonight, but I don't know if that will help [YES, it is plugged in], I don't look forward to it, but before I send it back, I'll talk to India! I have to lower to one star, but if India, can help me, I'll change that....later for now..(UPDATE!)OK, I changed my rating to 3 stars. I finally got this thing working and without having to call India. I was not easy, and not everything works like I want, but it works. It is loud, and slow, and the black print is not very black. I haven't been able to get it to feed from the back feed, for photo paper, and it keeps losing connection with the network, so I just run it hooked up to my PC with the USB cable, I don't want to repack it to send it back, so I'll live with it -- for now. But it should be better!****(ONE LAST UPDATE) Now that I'm using it every day, I have to say, I'm not impressed with this printer, and I will never buy another Brother printer again. I miss my old Canon, that was twice the printer this contraption is. It's slow getting started, it's loud, and the print quality is marginal at best. I still can't get photo quality paper to feed through from the back (WP). Not that this is going to matter much, as the quality of print is not good enough to bother, and I'm going to have to hook up my old Canon photo printer to use for photos. What a pain in the butt this machine has turned out to be. I am going to keep it for awhile, BUT:~~ I EMPHATICALLY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRINTER TO ANYONE! THE PRINT QUALITY ALONE IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH, PLUS ALL THE OTHER PROBLEMS! I will change what I gave this on the stars`(3), it should just barely be a 2**I say keep looking, anything is better than this thing!
