Simple Setup and it just works right out of box
Back in June of this year I purchased an HP inkjet printer. I will not go too far off topic but it was one of the most frustrating purchases of my life. I bought it because it was a cheap little printer, under $50 and it fit on the bookshelf where I needed to place it, which was a big consideration for the printer purchase, along with the fact that it had to be hooked up wirelessly also.After three days of trying to get it to work with senseless App control HP made me get could not get it hooked up. During the initial setup process out of box – HP setup a password that I did NOT know about and when I reset my internet router it asked me for this password. I was so perplexed and frustrated I could not get past this step. After two days of talking to HP they finally helped me get wireless setup complete.But then the stupid printer broke and made horrible sound when it would try to grab paper. I simply had enough. So I decided to spend more money on this Brother Laser printer. I hate to spend the more money, but I was ready to throw HP printer up against the wall. So to keep my sanity I paid the more money.This Brother printer was easy to setup and easy to connect to my ISP and router. Took no longer than one minute to get to where I could print. This printer is fast and prints without acting like it’s going to have a heart attack like the stupid HP crap I had before.So if you do not need color printing this is very good for small to medium workloads.I don’t need color printing really so this is very good.

Good solid printer
So this was really easy to set up from the Quickstart guide. Just download the software, your quickstart guide gives the website address. Don’t use the included disk because it will be out of date. Plug in the printer, plug in a USB printer cable, no it doesn’t come with one but I have spares from old dead printers. Plug cable into computer, turn on printer. Windows will automatically install drivers, this isn’t a problem. Run the software installer. It will walk you through the installation. Put in your network key when it asks you, not your router password. It connects right away to your network. Unplug USB from computer. After installation you can use the included IPrint & Scan software tool icon to tweak your printer settings from browser based ip address that opens automatically when you click on the tool icon. You can log into your settings using the admin password that’s on back of the printer and this will give you a more complete set of settings. You can print out the initial settings from there as a baseline in case you change something and don’t like it. The menues are pretty self explanitory though lack detailed info. You can download all the many printer guides from the Brother site for your printer. The complete online guide is good for opening in your web browser and being able to click on the table of contents to quickly get to what you want. If you save it as a PDF you won’t be able to click the TOC links. It’s too fat to print out unless you like wasting toner and paper. This guide gives all the printer menu options on the LED and how to access them from the printer. You can set the toner Continue mode from computer, the deep sleep mode has to be set from there printer. I haven’t had any problems with it coming out of deep sleep. The printer automatically enters sleep mode but comes out fast, warms up fast from power on and prints very fast. The double sided setting works very well. You can set your print preferences from your print options menu from whatever program you are using, toner save, paper type, toner density etc and save them in custom settings tab. I’m using a 20 lb paper, so it does curl from the heat. I’ll try a thicker 32 lb paper for when I need better copies. I ran 80 lb smooth cardstock through and it handled it well but did get some heat curling. The printer doesn’t feel hot. Paper just doesn’t like heat. It’s not that big or heavy and fits well in my small office. The cord is a decent enough length, 3 pronged. Paper tray is adjustable to different sizes. Print is good and clear, toner can be adjusted from very dark to toner save, in your printing preferences. Sign into brother-usa.com to register your machine. I’m using this to print plain documents and high quality black and white graphics. Grey tones are good too if that’s what you are needing. Brother Creative Center has lots of free projects you can use for printing or to use their graphics. I like Brother products, have had good experience with them. Haven’t decided if I’m going to use after market toner or stick to Brother. Depends on how fast I end up going through toner. I’m giving a 5 star rating for tech support though I haven’t called them for this printer, that rating is based on tech support I’ve received with my other brother all in one ink jet and my brother scan n cut. The printer came new, well packaged and fairly fast. It’s not pretty if you’re looking for pretty. Please note I’ve had this printer only one day and if things change I’ll update to reflect that. I paid full price for this printer, 115.00, so this review is totally my own.

It’s so reliable. Cheaper than HP and more reliable than Samsung
I have two Brother Printers 2370 & 2460; one on each floor. Both just work. They’re cheaper than HP ink-wise and more reliable than Samsung connection-wise. These are my go-to printers. They stay connected, are always ready, they’re fast, print great and print duplex automatically. They also have ethernet connection and are direct-wired to the router. They check every box except color. But, I typically don’t need it and can use my ink jets for that. The 2460 is rated a hair faster, but they’re both plenty fast. They don’t spit out pages of wing-ding characters like my old Samsungs and HPs either. Love these Brother printers because they both just work!

Great printer. Annoying software.
It’s a Brother printer. Great product, works very well. Easy Wifi setup. Fast and quiet. I like my printers boring and dependable and this is it.Took one star away for the annoying software. For my version of the printer/software (purchased Sept 2024), for every computer, I had to “reset” up the printer as if this was the first computer. No biggie, I guess, as all the other PCs set up previously still worked, but it was just odd. The other part of that star reduction is the ANNOYING reminders to buy into their subscription services. I uninstalled or disabled the vast majority of their software to just shut it up. The basic driver and setup work just fine for my purposes.

Brother offers subscriptions and silly things, but this printer is 10x better value that Epson, canon or hp cheap printers that hoop you for not having ink. I’ve had nothing but issues with all dozen printers I’ve had over 20 years, and this is the greatest experience I’ve ever had.No spam, no bs in the app, no garbage network traffic, no headaches setting up on the network, or assembly. It’s just a perfect experience. One of my hp all-in-one the scanner stopped working when the in runs out… They extort you on a product you own after you bought it. Not with brother, it does its thing and doesn’t bug you at all for subscriptions or cutting features after you bought it. Ink dries up, but not toner on a laser printer.Better print quality by miles and works plug and play on Linux, windows, and there’s an app I think for android and iPhone but haven’t used that yet.

Der Drucker wurde schnell und in gut zu transportierender Verpackung (seitliche Griffe) geliefert. Da die Treiber auf DVD mitgeliefert wurden, war die Installation in 5 Minuten erledigt. Das Druckbild ist sehr gut. Im Ruhemodus ist der Drucker nicht hörbar. Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Was up and running on wi-fi in less than 10 minutes.Replaces a Brother 2240 which refused to turn on despite tryingevery trick I could find on the net. Lasted about 3 years — hope this one runs longer.(Note: no cable included if you want to plug it into your computer)
