Goes a long way in printing children's school books. I ordered long before I actually need a replacement, but it is unwarranted. The delivery was speedy. I get the Samsung toner because I would rather not take chances with a generic with my equipment.

I'm in school and have a lot to print. This paper, coupled with my Brother HL-2270DW laser printer, allows me to clearly read everything from word docs to power points printed four slides to a page. It's a brilliant white, and heavy enough that notes and doodles rarely show through to the back side of the paper.

Have had this item since March 2016 (it's Feb 2018 now).  My wife is a 1st grade school teacher at a small Catholic school, very tight budget.  She prints about a half of a reams worth of paper a week (250 pg.) for her class and for home issues.  We have gone through a lot of ink and having this item an awesome product; all we had to do is fill the big bottles/hoppers, never have to remove the ink heads.  Installation not that difficult; I believe I watched a You tube video.  Since my printer is an Epson, every now and then I have to push the reset button on the ink head cartridges, but when that is done, the printer views it as a new cartridge; there is a large button battery that is necessary for the reset, but it is a common one if needed replacing (mine is still good so far...I guess).  I mounted the entire item to the side of the printer.  Bought another Epson, WF3720, just waiting for the CIS for this model to be released...WILL BUY AGAIN!!!

This is a nice printer for home use, especially if you have kids in school who need to print up reports here and there.  The scanning is good quality and it is easy to copy / print 2-sided pages, make labels, or print envelopes.  The drawback is it is not that great as an office printer.  I am a consultant, who a few times a month must print up a multiple copies of multi-page documents.  This printer cannot handle the load.  For example, I needed to make 12 double-sided copies of an 8 page text document.  After printing 8 copies (a total of 24 sheets of paper), i got a message stating the printer was out of memory and it quit printing. This is a problem.  I now have to break my print jobs into smaller batches, which means it takes me longer to get the job done.  Though the printouts are nicer looking and the machine is easier to use than my now deceased Canon ImageClass, the Brother is not that useful for my home office.  If you are an accountant, teacher, consultant, or anyone who has to make multiple copies of 1 document, you may want to look elsewhere.  If you only print a page here or there, the occasional tax return, or you don't mind breaking up big print/copy jobs, this printer is great.

UPDATE:  Regarding the memory error.  This appears to occur when you are printing and not copying.  So if you have worked on a 10 page document and need 20 copies, print 1 copy of the document off of your computer.  Then make 20 photocopies of that document.  If you try to print 20 copies of the document from the computer print menu, you get the "out of Memory" message half way through.

I still am giving this 3 stars because it prints significantly slower than advertised.

My son uses this book in school and BOY is it heavy!  He was schlepping the school copy back and forth every day and so I got the idea to buy copies of his heaviest books to keep at home.  Now he can keep the school copy in his locker and bring it to class and NOT have to travel around with it, because he has the very same book at home now.

Now I can say, "Yes kids... you can print that out" more often because this gives me a good amount of ink for the money.

I LOVE this printer!!! It's great because it separates photo ink from text ink. It's a bit bulky but the duplex-printing overrides that part. Prints very fast and has a easy-to-use photo software. A lot of different photo sizes to choose from which is helpful when making scrapbooks. Pictures are like store quality if not better. The copy function also has many options which is great. I just hope the cover would go all the way up (90 degree angle) but it's not a copy machine and would probably cost more if that was so. Scanning works very well. I use compact flash memory cards and it fits nicely with a light to tell you it's on. No USB printer cable so we bought one from Staples. Also good to have the option to print from the printer top or the cassette (goes very well with the duplex-printing). Overall I highly recommend Canon Pixma and might get another one for my sister.

I have had the MakerBot Replicator 5th Generation in my classroom for two years now. This machine joins the original Makerbot from about 5 years ago as well as 3 minis. All of the Makerbot 3D Printers are wonderful for my elementary-aged students. They are able to design objects on computers and tablets that then get printed on the 3D printers. It's amazing! I rarely have issues with the printer itself and when I do, I have been able to troubleshoot on my own without having to purchase any major replacement parts. I had to purchase one replacement nozzle, which cost me a whopping $7.

Works well with my printer, enabling me to print off colored articles and games for my classroom.  Teachers can use all the savings we can while trying to provide our students with quality  and colorful manipulatives.

I've had this printer for one year.  I don't know how many prints I've made, but certainly hundreds.  Everything from 4x6s to 8x12s (on specially cut paper - works like a charm).

Print Quality - Excellent

I use profiled monitors and a paper-specific profile from a third party paper source.  I am an 'advanced amateur' photographer, but my prints from the R800 have been evaluated by professionals.  Although I have printed some really long panoramics, they were stitched from multiple exposures.  So, the largest single-image prints I've made are the 8x12s (from a 6 mp dSLR) - They are as good or better than a print from a 35mm slide.

Cost - the printer cost is resonable, until to run out of the included ink set, then you start racking up costs rather alarmingly.  It's still cheaper than getting prints made commercially, and it is great to have the ability to print immediately at home.

Mechanical - some minor issues.  It's not easy to get roll paper fed, primarily because the roll has such a curl set in it that you can't get it started.  Rarely, the sheet feeder also has trouble.  It appears to be paper dependent:  thick papers sometimes stick.

Overall - deduct one star because the ink costs are discouraging.  I'd buy it again.  Well, actually, I'd buy the R1800 because I'd like to print larger!

I bought these for my classroom printer.  I use my printer daily, usually for single copies sometime for more.  So far this year, the one that I installed is doing a great job.

This is a beautiful set of prints from the book.  I laminated them and use them as writing prompts for my 6th grade students.  I've seen them in pediatricians' offices as well.

This has been an awesome printer, copier and scanner.  Great value and has held up well.  It gets jams more than I like, but easy to clear.  I bought an Epson and took the cartridges to get refilled.  Our local refill store could not do the Epson cartridges and they told me the only way to go was Brother.  I am so glad I took back the Epson to Walmart and got this.  We have five kids and must carefully watch printing costs.  I think this is the answer.

I only recently received this so I'll update later if necessary if issues arrive. So far this printer is working great. I love being able to print giant sized posters for my kids. The quality of the print is on par with other inkjet photo printers that I have used. It was easy to setup over wifi from my laptop and prints easily from my android phone with the free epson printing app available in the Google market.

I am used to slow inkjet printers. This thing printed pages so quickly the first time I used it I thought it must of malfunctioned (the sound of printing seemed to have halted far too abruptly). It even does two-sided quickly. I haven't burdened the printer with any onerous jobs yet, but so far it has exceeded my expectations. The only criticism I have is that it is a bit large.

I have been spending so much on color ink to print things for my students. This product helps cut the cost some.

I absolutely love this printer. It is a bit bulky but the printing quality is great. This is a great Laser printer for printing many, many pages of notes for students (like myself) and the automatic two-sided printing is a great selling point. The wireless networking is simple and easy to set up and the ink cartridges last longer than I expected.
