Great Printer, SOLVED ISSUE FOR SLOW PRINTING
Great printer for home use. Was easy to set up and works well with both my Mac and my wife's Windows 10 Surface Pro. FOR THOSE OF YOU HAVING ISSUES WITH SUPER SLOW PRINTING: I had this issue as well when I first set it up on my wife's PC. Pages would take about a minute & a half to print. I determined this was because Windows was using a generic print driver that seemed like it was converting all print jobs to JPEG image files before sending them to the printer. The printer sees a JPEG image and prints it very slowly like you'd expect it to take its time on a photo (even though it's really just text). THE SOLUTION: delete the printer from your computer. Go to the drivers on Brother's website (or I just googled "Brother MFCJ460DW Driver" and it got me right where I needed to go). Download & run the full driver kit. In the process of installing the driver, it'll detect your printer model and automatically set that up in windows for you. After that, pages take about 10 seconds to print on the "general" print profile and about 5 seconds on the "fast print" profile. Every time you have a print dialog open, you can choose "printer properties" and it opens a new window where you can select your profile such as general, photo, fast print, etc.
