Title: Worth the money
Review: I was initially skeptical about paying this much for a printer, I had never paid more than $50 for a printer previously. But this printer is well worth the money. I have printed out hundreds of sheets of paper and the toner levels are still hovering around 80-90%. It prints quickly and dependably in both wired and wireless modes. The printing quality is fantastic for text, and very good for photos. A quick note is that this printer seems to draw a lot of power, because the two lamps in the room flicker whenever this printer receives a signal to start printing. But that has never been an issue.

Title: Solid purchase
Review: This is a great way to print at home in color, without going through mounds of ink… wish I would have invested in this printer before my last inkjet.

Title: The WORST printer I've ever owned
Review: We got this printer back in January. Having and using a Brother HL3040CN for years which was great until they didn't make cartridges anymore that we could get. We bought this one with high hopes. We use the printer for some color pages & some black & white invoices, but we also print a lot of envelopes. The cartridges that come with the printer were virtually empty. We printed about 60 business envelopes before the Black cartridge ran out and had to replace it. Then without ever printing a color page (except for the first test page to setup the printer) the color cartridges started to run out. Even though we were only printing Black & White the printer locks up until the color cartridge is replaced. Within 2 weeks all 3 color cartridges were empty without being used. Costly to say the least. Also, the printer mangles envelopes. Every envelope comes out with creases down the back of the envelope. There is no way to straighten this out. No adjustments you can make. It also takes forever to get it to start & load an envelope. Then forever to start to print the next envelope. They should go back and look at the design for the HL3040CN so they can design a better printer. All in all, the worst printer we've ever bought & we've had at least 9 different printers in the last 31 years.UPDATE!! We now have had this printer for 10 months. I print about 20 to 30 envelopes a week. My wife printed 1 recipe in color about 2 months ago but now the printer says the Yellow Toner is EMPTY!! The printer shuts down and is unusable. Now I can't use it until I buy another set of color toner cartridges because as what happened the last time the others will show up to be empty also.

Title: prints nicely
Review: works great... but doesn't always maintain wifi connection which can be frustrating. I'm not the most tech-savvy person in the world so had to go thru a bit of trial/error in setting up. Managed to do so but couldn't begin to tell you how I did it. Not sure that is a printer issue or user issue, but point is, once it is up and running, it prints nicely.

Title: Super Easy Setup/Superb Print Quality
Review: I've been the proud owner of a Brother MFC-8690DW all-in-one (monochrome/black) laser printer/scanner/copier/fax for more than 15 years now. I've never had the first problem with this older workhorse, so it was a no-brainer that I remain loyal to Brother when choosing a color laser printer.I ordered this printer via my Prime account on a Thursday afternoon, and the USPS delivered the item the following Sunday. The unit arrived packaged in the original box, free of any damage. I followed the easy instructions for unpacking the printer and setting it up. Installing the printer to my Windows 10 PC was simply a matter of powering on the printer and connecting it to my home wireless network; as soon as the printer connected to my network it was "seen" by my PC and was automatically installed within seconds. Installing the printer to work with my iPhone was a simple matter of going to the App Store and installing the free Brother Mobile app. Once the app was installed on my phone it was just a few simple steps (which took less than five minutes) and I was printing directly from my iPhone.Although there's no indication that this particular printer is suitable for printing photos, I loaded some glossy photo paper into the 250-sheet paper tray and printed several beautiful 8 X 10 photos. I framed six of them which I intend to hang on the wall in my office.I feel that purchasing this Brother HL-L3280CDW Wireless Compact Digital Color Printer has given me a substantial amount of bang for my buck. I can't say enough about the ease of setup and the high quality pages it prints. In a nutshell, I was printing fine, superb quality pages in less than 15 minutes from the moment I opened the box. I highly recommend this printer!

Title: I don't worry about printer heads clogging when I don't use it much
Review: I have heard that Brother printers don't do as good a job at printing pictures. I tried printing a color picture on regular paper and it looked like most do, nothing spectacular. They don't play games with printing supplies like HP does. I will never buy another HP printer. It was easy to install. I purchased a Cannon printer but had to take it back because the installation was not working. I had this printer installed in 30 minutes.I did not want phone installation. I don't print from my phone. That was not a problem. The cannon installation was only phone and would not let me just use desk top computer.

Title: What a disappointment
Review: I print a lot and was looking for a simple, cost-effective, print-only product. This printer was difficult to connect. It won't work without downloading extra software and I've had to connect it via a cable because the print jobs don't reliably go through wirelessly. It runs out of toner quite quickly, and once it thinks it is out of toner, it will not print anymore so you can't actually use up the toner. This is true even if you are out of one color and tell it to print only in black and white. A toner pack costs as much as the printer itself, and because the toner has a chip, there is no way to use a cheaper brand. So, the ongoing costs of this printer are quite high. I am already in the market for another printer because this one is not worth the ongoing toner costs.

Review: Me decepcionó la calidad de impresión. Sobre todo en colores lisos. Como pueden ver salen rayas. En el gris sale una raya rosa y en la segunda se perciben otras de color gris más fuerte. Es nueva, no se supone que debe hacer eso.
