This printer prints. Let the angels sing.
It's a printer and it prints. I bow before this printer's printing prowess. You might as well ask for a unicorn these days when you go printer hunting, because the last two printers I've owned wouldn't print. Yes, I know how to work a printer. But there are issues with certain Brother machines playing nicely with Macs, and if I'd had any hair left to pull out after the maelstrom that is 2020, I'd have pulled it out already with my last two machines. If you want a printer that can print in black and white and color, this is it. If you want a printer that can print double sided, this is it. If you want a printer that you can print from wirelessly and from your phone but also via USB if you feel like it, this is it. If you want a printer that can also scan and copy, this is it. If you want a printer that does not require printing a test page before every printing job, this is it. If you want a printer that your cat will attack for absolutely no reason except that she can not stand the blue light that's sometimes visible at night, and is wide enough for said cat to sit on and feel dominant over as if she won the blue light war, this is also it. If you want a printer that you can unplug because your toddler likes to drain your entire black cartridge by scanning a blank piece of paper and then printing it out as a full black 8.5X11 sheet, and when you plug it back in again after they go to bed so you can print out your time-sensitive project IT ACTUALLY CAN FIND THE WIFI by itself without you having to download a driver, uninstall the entire printer and then wait for an hour on hold with tech support, this is definitely it. Buy this printer, give them your money, give them more money and then make sacrifices of paper and ink to this printer for the gift of Just Printing that it gives to you. Throw your old machine into the nearby volcano that 2020 will undoubtedly randomly provide, and give thanks for the crops that grow and the sun that shines on this printer. It survives being unplugged, attacked by cats, printing entire sheets of only black ink, and power outages. And it still just connects to the internet and prints. By itself. I print from my phone. I print from my laptop wirelessly AND wired, if I want. I unplug it and sic my cat and toddler on it, and THEN plug it back in and print from my phone from in the shower with my phone in a waterproof bag while standing on my head, and it will still print. I print with only five sheets of paper in the tray, and I print double sided or in black and white. I also print double sided AND in black and white, just because I can. And you, my friend, can as well. Just buy this printer, and all this magic is yours. Yes, the cartridges are sometimes hard to find. Yes, the subscription ink thing feels scammy and ick, but just buy the cartridges off here or from Staples or something, and it's all good because it PRINTS. Cue Handel's Hallelujah Chorus.
