Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works brilliantly My old printer and scanner were several years old and very slow. This Brother machine is so fast in comparison at both kinds of job. I love being able to send a print command and it immediately jumps into action, sending out documents at real speed. Quality is great too.

Date published: 2023-09-10
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really happy with purchase I’ve had this Brother printer for several months now. It’s been used a lot, I’m down to 25% remaining on my second set of cartridges. It has been used wirelessly over several devices including my mobile phone and has connected seamlessly every single time, unlike other well known makers. Great scans and great prints. The replacement genuine inks are expensive but no more so than any other manufacturer. I like this PSC so much I only use genuine inks for it, unlike previous machines I’ve had. Also like the fact you can have 3 separate types of paper in. I only use 2, 1 for A4 and 1 for A3 but the 3rd option is there if I need it. Definitely the best A3 PSC I’ve ever had or used, you won’t regret it. I use this printer in a home environment doing loads of stuff for a local community charity. ps. I know it sounds like it, but I assure you I’m not connected with Brother in any way!!
