Great printer, easy double sided printing.

 

I haven't tried out a generic cartridge yet. The shell shocker price is attrive enough just to get the toner drum replacement part from it. It does come with a starter toner cartridge - buy another to have on hand as it doesn't last long.

Fast printing, fast startup, clean prints. Duplex feature is awesome. Easy configuration and setup for PCs in my home LAN. Network scanning works

None

Great Printer

 

The reviewer that is having troubles with the printer waking up or dropping off the network. It could be just hardware issues with that person's network. I had never had any issues with printing from a laptop in my living room (printer is in my room)...

This is a great laser printer. Never had any issues with it ever since I bought it on 6/2012. Very easy to use and set up on my network. Scans docs great and clear. Its a bit loud, but that is expected from a laser printer

When printing on envelopes, you have to feed envelopes from the back of the printer. Which is inconvenient at times because this printer is on my desk against the wall

Built-In Limitations Make It Less Useful

 

It does all that is advertised - copies, scans, prints. The problem is it does not do any of them edge-to-edge (full sheet).

acceptable if you know limits

documentation doesn't reveal key limitations

Great Printer for the Money

 

Great copies. Works very well with the Paper Port program that is included. Great printer. Easy to set up. Somewhat regretful that I misread the name of the printer. It said it was a Laser All-In-One and I assumed that it had a fax as most all-in-ones...

Do not buy this headache

 

I will never buy another Brother product due to this absurd issue. A printer that falls offline in 1 minute and renders itself useless unless you reinstall it every single time. Stupidity.

Frankly, I am concerned that the other reviewers are either fake or lying. This thing drops off your network in literally 1 minute and stays "asleep" or even "deep sleep" until you use Brother's invasive network repair tool to bring it back to life....

It doesn't stay online more than one minute. It goes to sleep and stays that way indefinitely. There is nothing you can do to print at that point. You can't wake it up on the printer itself. You can't wake it up from your PC. Your only recourse is to...

DCP-7065DN MFC

 

Easy installation. This unit replaces a Samsung color printer I had owned for 5 years. I seldom put it to use and it always seems to be slow and getting jammed every other pages. Hopefully this new printer will last longer

None so far

Very good, but Brother Software is NOT the best with Mac

 

Fix this Mac issue and this thing would be perfect.

Seems like a solid machine, efficient use of toner, friendly to use. I have set up a home network with 2 macs, an iPad and a PC and works just fine

The software that scans text and puts it into Word is absolutely horrible when using a Mac. Almost not worth using. I talked to several Brother tech reps and both said they have not spent energy in developing their software for Mac. I am NOT a happy...

Generally okay, but some flaws

 

I replaced an aging MFC-8065DN with this model. While the cheaper price always means a trade-off, my complaints don't seem cost-related. The printed page storage area is too small. It's hard to get your hand in the narrow opening. The manual feed slot...

Excellent Quality/Low Price

 

My 2nd Brothers printer. Bought it because the other worked flawlessly in a home office environment for many years. It is so much more economical than an ink jet, prints quickly, scans and copies. I need to send something - scan it and e-mail it our...
