I worked for a company that used brothers- my first introduction. I decided I wanted one and that I wanted the wireless feature. This little guy will print all I need and not require me to run to the store every 50 pages to buy a new ink cartridge. This Brother uses toner which will not dry out and which will print tons of pages. While this version doesn't print as fast as some. At 22 ppm I'm not complaining. As I've had to wait minutes before for a single page. I'm very please with this printer. And the paper tray will expand to accommodate legal size paper. That's perfect. I don't know if I can print double sided. I thought I could but every time I look at that option the button is faded and not useable.

They did respond with questions I will give them that. But it does not work. Went and bought a new toner, nothing, new drum, nothing. Took it to a printer repair place said been broken for a long time. And I’m out almost $100 worth of a boat anchor!

First of all, as with any printer, this one is not perfect. However, if you read the quickstart guide and follow the instructions, it is fairly easy to set up. You have several connection options.. I also appreciate that the drivers work well with terminal services. I have 3 of these printers here now, each serving a 3-4 person group. Two of the locations had no network ports available and I did not feel like running cat5, so the wireless feature came in handy. Print quality and speed is more than adequate for our needs.. For larger groups, I went with the 5280 and 5250 from brother. As for the toner, the 2170 uses the same toner as the 2140 (usb only). So, if you have a mix of single user and workgroup printers, you don't need to stock different toners. It's a very nice printer for the price.Read full review
Great cheap Laser Printer. seriously low price on toner/drums. NOT exactly Chromebook ready, Works fine PC or Mac. My kid's in IT & there is only 1 way to use this with a Chromebook - with it attached to a Mac or PC that is running. So wireless is useless for home use. There IS a Brother iPrintScan app but it is clumsy, have to find & send thru it with no in-app print capability. The extra step is not great. With Chrome Cloud print going away this is not for me. Too early to say what print app to use after 1/1/21.

I have printed about 100 pages through the wireless feature and the printer performed flawlessly. I might have given the rating an excellent but i only have the printer a week so i am not sure how long the toner or drum will last but the printed pages look very good. I decided to get a laser printer because my wife is doing more and more printing at home for work and was going through ink on our color all-in-one printer way too fast. I also wanted the wireless feature so that i could put the printer tucked away somewhere out of the way and keep the all-in-one by the computer for picture prints and copying.
