Printer is rather heavy, but has a nice small footprint for my office. Was easy to set up and get connected to my WiFi. It is doing double duty as a printer for a doctor's office as well as for my small business (am a candle maker and print my own labels, invoices, etc.). Am very pleased with the print quality in B/W as well as color. I love the 2 sided printing feature and is easy to use. Have read other reviews about time needed for 1st print. It works great for me. For the office forms I usually am printing about 10-15 copies at once. By the time I get from my laptop to my office in another room the print job is usually already done and ready to pick up. I have only had the printer a short time (a few weeks), but love it so far. It is doing everything I need. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it for small office work. Can't say how it would do with heavy use. Would have been a good buy new at full price, but an excellent buy as a used demo model at a discounted rate.Read full review

I had gone through two HL-3140 printers and have an excess of toner cartridges expecting the printer(s) to last longer than they did. Because of that investment in toner, I found this used HL-3170 that uses the same cartridges. I hope it lasts longer than it's two predecessors.

I found this printer to be very practical. It's fairly easy to setup, even with the limited user interface. It takes a little time to setup wifi. But this printer gave me very little fuss, unlike the HP printers I have owned. The toner is less expensive (per page) than any other laser printer and there is a hack to make the toner last longer (google it). Make sure to buy the Brother ink only, as I've seen the OEM toner be problematic (toner flakes off the paper). The only gripe I have has to do with the defective fuser that these printers are built with (the rollers). They start disintegrating after a few thousand sheets. Everyone encounters it. Brother warranties it's printers for a year IF you buy them at brick-and-mortar establishment. For those that use the printer a lot, you will encounter this problem in under a year. For others, you will find yourself outside the warranty window. It cost about $100 to $150 to buy a new fuser and Brother recommends that you have a professional do the installation (even more $$). In the end, unfortunately you're better off just buying a new printer. You can find people giving these busted fuser printers away on craigslist.Read full review

Thanks to a downloaded manual from Brother and a couple of YouTube videos I was able to get the black toner working. I don't do a lot of printing so this just sits there most of the time. It stays in "Deep Sleep" mode and goes right to work without having to go turn it on. Being a laser printer I don't worry about the ink drying up and clogging the print head. That's a HUGE plus for me.

I haven't had it long, but does a great job of printing, duplex as well, I have a MFC-L2740DW Brother printer as well, and love it. I had another Brother Laser printer for years, and it was very reliable, that is why I have the two brother printers now! What I like about Laser Printers is that unlike Inkjet printers, the toner does not dry out, clog the print heads etc, and is always ready to go.
