Disadavantage of policy with machines suing TN229

As I explained at length the Brother new policy preventing toner counter reset on this range of new machines (using TN 229s) is unacceptable for environment law and finances. Totally outrageous I returned the machine and got an old demo version of a machine using the TN227 and allowing reset! The only way this would be acceptable is if there existed an accurate sensor for toner level… mine was not!!!

Relentless email spam I can’t stop

Print quality is nothing special. Toner ran out in a week! Go and look up the cost for toner! Setup was easy on LAN. I haven’t tried wireless yet.

3280CDW review

This is a good value color printer. I thought it came with a scan feature but it doesn't, so that was disappointing. Guess I didn't read all the fine print. Still, I'm pleased with the purchase.

Poor Toner Use and Not Efficient

Purchased brand new and toner ran out (both color and black ink)within 2 weeks of our IT installing in our office, mind you toner (color) is not exactly "cheap" so cost efficiency is nowhere near what our office thought it might be. (Medical private Dr office so we are not printing a heavy load for context.)

Finally an honest company selling printers!

Highly recommend this printer for office or home use. Some useful tips: When you set it up, print your test page to make sure all is working as intended, then change settings to Mono so it only prints B&W. If you ever need to print in color just go into settings and change it back to Color. Also enable Toner Save mode. I have to tip my hat to Brother for providing these features. I'm a really hard sell when it comes to purchases like a printer and they've won me over as a loyal customer.

Machine does not work out of the box, it only gives error messages and toner is half full.

Wow.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This printer is amazing. It’s large and it wasn’t what I expected compared to my previous printer, but I am PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. It was simple enough to set up. A bit heavy for me but once out the box it wasn’t too hard to maneuver. My old printer is HP and worked great for me for years and has a scanner which is great. This one does not. But let me say this, it prints so fast. I am SO happy with it. I homeschool my kids and when kids have to ...

Best Wi-Fi Printer I’ve Had

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great product for any home office. This printer is a bit larger than I expected but still compact enough to for comfortably in our home office. It was easy to set up and connect to our system. The ink cartridges are large and easy to insert and give you plenty of print jobs before replacement is needed. The ability to print from mobile devices easily is a huge bonus from our previous printer. The print quality is great. Even picture...
