Bought it for the Fax capability but a great laser printer as well. Very easy to set up and ready to use out of the box. Has Brother reliability built in and the reason why I chose this brand.

It runs well. I like it. I would recommend it to my friends. I like your printers because the ink is cheaper and I can afford it.

Excellent Printer
Date:March 20, 2013
By Dan24

Very good photo and scan quality, individual ink tanks & very inexpensive generic ink replacements, reliable reputation and is built solidly while other companies' printers look like they are built cheaply. I like that the LCD screen shows the date, time and ink levels, doesn't seem to use a lot of ink.

easy set up, low profile
Date:February 18, 2013
By TeKa
from Kern County, CA
My laptop and new Brother printer were coordinated in minutes and I didn't need to stress over complicated commands. The printer has a low profile so it doesn't sit out like a sore thumb on the table. Print quality is very good; colors are true. I don't fax, but the copy, print-from-pc, and scan-to-file all works just fine.

Good Little Printer
Date:February 7, 2013
By StuardoSays

I have been using the Brother MFC-665 for several years. I bought three of them for use at home at work and in my second home. It was good to have the same printer in all three places. Then Windows 7 came out and lo and behold, none of the printers worked with that operatiing system. A search for drivers proved futile so I finally bought this MFC-J220 and it works just as well as the old one and it works with Windows 7. End of story!

I bought the wired only model for a specfic use. It works well, prints etc. The only draw back is that it will not take the high volume ink jet refills

for the price wonderful.... quality is great, easy to use. i haven't used the fax just yet and the photo i am still adjusting the quality. was easy to setup
So far so good. This is a replacement for another Brother printer that failed. This one is still going strong, and has one of the lowest consumables cost.

Reliable and Hardworking Printer
Date:December 3, 2012
By DrAudie
from New Orleans, LA
Our MFC-J220 is our 5th Brother Printer in the MFC series. We purchased it on a Sunday afternoon when our existing MFC "gave up the ghost". Not the printer's fault though as my wife and I are both educators and really ask more of the printer then what they are designed for.
We have been exceptionally pleased with all of our Brother products over the years as they give us true value in relation to cost. That is the reason we replace each of them with another Brother Printer.
The only thing I miss on the MFC-J220 is the multiple document feed which our last unit had otherwise it is a great printer at a great price!

Very difficult to use

By BruceM

This is not a stand alone product that you can plug and play with a MAC PC. Scanning is not intuitive.
I should have returned it the day after I tried to set it up. Brother support is good as they tried very hard to give me work arounds for the product's short comings.

Suddenly unhappy.
Date:November 27, 2012
By chazcda
from Couer d'Alene,ID
After many months of satisfactory performance utilizing only black ink, the unit would not print. Printer noted that the yellow cartridge needed replacing. After replacing with a new cartridge Printer noted cannot detect yellow cartridge. I am totally frustrated. Note: Printer is only seven months and is used occasionally.

Best Printer Purchased

I love my Brother MFC-J220 printer. I had another Brother printer and it did not compare to this one. This one has a save energy mode and when not in use goes into save mode. Very satisfied.
