I would not buy again
Horrible, issues every time I tried to print anything, never connected to wifi, even though I would receive a connection. Spent wasted hours trying to print items. Just a complete peice of junk and beyond frustrated with this printer.

Poor MPF and ADF functionality
As a printer this machine performs well; quick, good quality and easy to use. However, the manual paper feed (MPF) and Automatic Document Feed (ADF) functions are terrible due to the fact that the copies come out crooked or skewed. I called Brother tech support and while the representative was very polite and thorough, the troubleshooting only partially corrected the issue and I was told that a replacement unit would probably have the same issue. I still am loyal to the Brother brand and will likely continue to buy their products in the future, but the MPF and ADF are key functions and I'm very disappointed they don't work better than this.

Easy to set up and great quality
This printer has exceeded my expectations both in affordability and functionality. You get a lot of bang for your buck. Wifi set up was super easy, the document feeder makes scanning and copying quick... and the print out put quality is excellent. I was so happy with this printer that I purchased a second one for my 72 year old mother and she loves being able to printer over wifi from her laptop. I also recommended this printer to a friend, who did purchase it and is happy with it's performance for his home office.

Problem Child
We bought 3 of this model & have already had to replace 2 of them. Brother customer service was very helpful but would only replace with the same model. We have always had Brother printers in our office & have loved them for their quality, ease of use and fairly inexpensive. We will continue to use Brother machines due to their long history but will look at a different model.

Perfect for home use!
I love this printer! It is perfect for at-home use. It offers the most used features of the large office printers in a much, much smaller footprint..taking up much less room. Toner seems to be lasting quite a while.I use regular sized sheet paper and that is the only size it will accept. If you need larger paper, this is not the printer for you.

Very impress with DCP-L25550DW
What I liked the most was the excellent integration with my computer when I scanned a document. Unlike my past multi machines, I pressed the scan button and the scan immediately sent the image to my computer without any further effort on my part. That's the best integration of software with the copier and a computer that I've seen. Thanks.

Have issues with scanning function
This model scans photos well, then assigns a filename. But when I send the scan or worse, after the scan arrives on my laptop I don't know the filename. One would think also that the scans would be sent to the same place each time, but not so. Very confusing trying to find the file just scanned.

Quality product. Well-designed.
User-friendly. Good amount of interfaces - wifi, LAN networking, USB interfaces to accommodate many situations. Printer is conservative on ink which saves a LOT of money and headache compared to ink jet printers (ink cartridge is included with purchase of printer too). Scanning and copying capability just works with much hassle.

Nice ... reliable and dependable ... so far!
So far, so good.... 8 stars at this point...after 2000 pages printing, and scanning. Ask me in 3 years... if this printer is still performing as well as it is today, then a 10. Long-term reliability/durability is key. I'll pay more if I can have confidence (in advance!) that a product will hold-up over time. I don't want to have to deal with a printer that's flaky, unreliable, esp. that breaks when I most need it!

Excellent-but one that is an ink gobbler
I have two brother printers. My HL-L2315DW is a black and white at around the same price point. It uses a toner drum rather than cartridges like this model. I compared the two and have to spend a lot more money on ink for this one. The upside is that this model is worth the money for wireless scanning capabilities. The fact that it is a color printer does not balance out the cost of the ink because the color quality is not bad but it's not as sharp or crisp as you would need for routine business printing. Overall, for the price, it's a pretty decent buy.

Like all brother printers (I have been stupid enough to buy 3, wifi connectivity works when the machine feels like it - of course never when you really need it.

Also don't know how I'll recycle it at the end of its life. It is making my non-profit treasurer duties that I do from home much easier.

This machine replaced one almost exactly like it that I worked to death over 5 or 6 years of constant use in my office. The only issue I have with this version is that it does not automatically turn on, so it's one more roll across the floor, avoiding the cat, to turn on the printer. Other than that it has performed quite well so far.

Overall, this is a pretty good printer. The network connection is easy to set up and works consistently. Two-sided copying/printing has been very nice and saves paper, The one difficulty we have had is getting it to scan to my wife's laptop. No problems scanning to mine but it just won't seem to scan to hers. Still, it has worked very well.

Up to now very good but it may be too soon to tell
Just had this printer for a month now. It's been working excellently but maybe a month is not enough to give a complete review. I do believe that the initial toner cartridge gave me less than the 1200 pages expected. I recently installed a 3000 pages cartridge and I'm monitoring the performance. I love that I can print both sided automatically and the autofeeder feature for scanning/copying is also great. Up to now for the price is a very good B&W printer.

Works flawlessly, and paying for itself because the toner prints multiple times more pages than ink-jet cartridges. Still on toner that came with printer after printing many pages so I know the refills will really last. Refills are much less expensive than ink-jet cartridges also.
The page feeder for scans and copies also works great and is very convenient. Copies and scans fast too. All in all very happy with this purchase.

Great Printer
I am delighted with the printer BUT the installation software brought two variations of McAfee anti-virus software with it that just took over and dominates my computer to the point where they are nuisances. I would recommend that you discontinue this "marriage" ..Can you imagine how skeptical I have become because these two pieces of "scamware" tell me everyday that my existing anti-virus is inadequate even though it is McAfee also and is renewed each year ?

Reliable, fast, & efficient printer!
Love this printer! Had a different popular brand wireless printer for several years that was NOT a good experience. It eventually got to where it would drop the IP address all the time, causing all types of frustrating hoops to jump through to even use the darn thing. It also drank the printer cartridges FAST, which were not cheap to replace. After shopping around and reading reviews, I decided to go with this Brother printer and am VERY satisfied with it. We have had the printer 2 1/2 months now and the experience is night & day compared to what we had. The Brother was easy to set up, has been reliable, fast, and efficient. The quality of the print, scan, or copy jobs is great and it is a very user friendly product, whether from the controls on the printer itself, or from sending a job from the computer. Very economically priced also! Again, our family loves this printer and highly recommend it.

I really like this printer, it has great quality and quantity output using the 760 cartridge and has an Ethernet input port! It main drawback is that is very noisy during printing compared to other brands of printers. I still recommend this printer.

It works, for now.
Well, it was very easy to install and load. I've only used it a couple of times, and so far it functions very well. I've balked at buying another one because of the price of the ink cartridges cost so much. Mine tends to dry out before I get much use from them. Also, I buy one with multiple functions and then one of the functions goes bad and the entire unit is virtually useless. The cost of repair is more than the unit is worth. Chaeck with me in another couple of months.

Great Choice for Black & White Printing
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. Setting up the printer was pretty straightforward. The directions were clear and easy to follow. It came with a CD but I used the online driver download. I was really happy with how quick it was to setup and print from any device - I used an iPhone, iPad, and a laptop. Printing was quick, including for double-sided printing. Copying was great - I especially like all of the built-in copy options, including 2-in-1 that lets you automatically copy two documents to one page. Really nice to condense documents and make smaller duplicates from a master copy. DRAWBACKS: There are only a few drawbacks to this printer. It`s kind of loud - not off-puttingly so, but definitely loud if you have a sleeping baby you`re trying to work around. It`s also a bit large, but not obnoxiously so.I also had a harder time with scanning to the computer. It wasn`t as easy as pushing the scan to computer buttons on the printer. I had to download another utility, which was an extra step that would have been frustrating if I had waited until I *needed* to use it, which is what usually happens. Overall, I`m pretty happy with this printer. I like the quick, easy printing and the variety of copy functions.

I have had the machine for about two months and have used all of the features. They all work flawlessly. The prints and scans are excellent quality and the machine performs at advertised speed. So far, I have suffered no paper jams or other paper handling problems. The only negative is that it is a bit noisy. But for the price and brilliant performance, that is not really a problem.

Completely Reliable
I have had this copier printer for about 5 months. It has behaved flawlessly but then it is "new". What I will find out in time is whether it is easy or tough to get company information when something fails to work. And being somewhat green I certainly hope repairs are offered, instead of dumping this big chunk of plastic into some hole in the ground.

Rock solid
I have 2 Brother monochrome laser printers that are about 8 years old and still going strong but I needed a scanner all-in-one wireless printer so I got this one. It was kinda hard to figure out how to setup the direct wireless option (printer not attached to a computer because the password scrolls across this tiny display that I had to look at a dozen times to get the gobbledygook password down because you cannot freeze it on the display. Eventually I hooked printer up to a computer and was able to setup the intuitive wireless printing for anyone on our WiFi network. it turns out the scan button on the printer doesn’t launch the scan feature I have to initiate through the software on the computer. It’s possible all of these issues are adjustable in software or printer settings configuration and I just haven’t figured that out yet. I’m happy with the purchase I trust the brother brand for its reliability. Next upgrade will likely be a Brother color laser printer. (By the way I ONLY use Brother toner so I cannot say if my old printers would’ve performed as reliably with off brand “compatible with” toners).

Prior to getting the L255DW, I used an older brother laser wireless printer for general printing. I also had another printer that I would use one time every two weeks to scan a time sheet. This printer will also scan, so I was able to replace two printers with this one unit. The wireless feature is an added plus.

We replaced our ink jet printer with this Brother DCP L2550DW. What a pleasant change. No more dried up ink cartridges. No more expensive ink cartridges. Fast printing, from across the house. The only downside is it doesn't print color. But we are finding we don't really need to print color and the advantages far outweigh this one disadvantage.

It is a basic black and white laser printer. I like the duplex feature and the way it sips only a little ink at a time to make the cartridge go a long way. The only problem I have with it is connecting to it wirelessly. I get it working but days later it is not connecting. Seems to go to sleep and not respond to wireless connections without a lot of fiddling. Directly connecting always works fine.

Wifi connection to computer doesn't work
The WIFI connection is insanely buggy. Every time I need to print or scan, I have to restart first the computer then the printer for them to find each other, otherwise it won't find it and won't print or scan anything. I've searched online and this was the only solution I found that works, and even this is only a temporary solution, because every time I try to print this happens again. I have tried everything that I found in the various FAQs and I'm sure it's not just a router issue. For reference, my old wifi printer never had issues connecting to my router. Also, the scan quality is not impressive.

EZ and Simple
Very easy to set up. Love the wireless printing; including being able to print from my cell phone! My previous printer was also a brother. Which I had for about 12 years. Therefore brother laser printers tend to last a long time. You just need to get a new toner cartridge at times. Only downside is it is a laser printer, which means no color printing. Scanning works great. No need to use the fax portion, for me. Copy feature is great also. Very good brother model in my opinion.

It just works every time
Our prior monochrome laser from another brand starting with "D" could never maintain it's wireless connection. Printing was a hassle every time! Our Brother printer on the other hand simply works EVERY time, which is such a wonderful thing. The Brother is slightly louder but nothing to worry about. I have no complaints at all.

Set up was a challenge to a person that is not technical. Need to have better instructions. The little up and down buttons that had to touched could be bigger. Once everything connected has been working like a gem. The sample toner that is included could print more than 300 prints.

Reliable and quality printer
This is my 3rd Brother printer in the last 12 years. They are just workhorses for my online home business printing invoices and shipping labels. So reliable, I can trust that even when I am in a rush to get orders processed, this printer will be steady and perfect. It gives me plenty advance notice when to prepare to add a new toner cartridge so I am never stranded. Fits my workspace well and I love that I can scan and make copies very easily.

Unreliable with ATT Internet
After a year of spotty performance and HOURS with the support folks, they told me, "you have an ATT router and the two are not compatible which is why it disconnects from the internet. Can you change internet provider?" Truth. It eventually would not connect at all so I switched to HP where everything works perfectly.

All the features that I want and non that I don't!
The DCP-L2250DW replaces my trusty Brother HL-2270DW. My older flat bed scanner had seen it's better days and was a single sheet only + slow. I now have a full featured scanner and a very quick mono-chrome printer. Wireless setup was flawless and continues to work perfectly. Very satisfied and would highly recommend this device if faxing is not an important feature!

Good printer but very poor scanner
The printer part of this unit is great but the scanner is severely lacking.
When a document is placed at the upper left corner of the scanning bed, it will crop off 4mm from the top of the document, and 3mm from the left side - that is not acceptable. Cropping when you use the automatic document feeder (ADF will be even more haphazard (but somewhat understandable). Scanning quality in general is good enough for documents but not much more. Adjusting the scanning options does not produce noticable improvements even as selected resolution (and file size) increases.
The scanning software for Mac (Brother "iPrint&Scan") is a complete fail, as you can see from the App Store reviews. You are supposed to be able to send your scan directly from the printer to your computer (very important if your scanner is not in the same room). On one of my Macs it will work, on the other not - even with all app and system settings matching. After a week waiting for a response on the problem, Brother tech support acknowledged they've heard this happens but offer no solution.
The Android app does seem to work OK.

Not what I was hoping for
I bought this printer to replace an older model that was very similar. I chatted with someone online on the Brother website and I asked for the fastest first page out printer that will also scan and is wifi enabled. The representative pointed me towards this model. I checked the specifications on it and it says the first page out is in 8.1 seconds. I've timed it multiple times and the first page out is 15 seconds. I have it hooked up with an ethernet cable. We recently bought another Brother printer that only prints and the specifications on that was 7.1 seconds first page out, so I was only expecting this printer to take a couple more seconds, but it takes twice as long as the other printer.

OK Printer, Fair Scanner, Ridiculous Software
It prints as expected.
My only scans so far have been photos and the results are pretty meh.
In order to scan, you need to download and install a >400 MB bloated package of software. Let me scan to NAS. Or allow for a minimal installation package that doesn't leave half a dozen monitoring apps on my computer.
It's a printer & scanner, not a lifestyle.

Dependable
Overall I am pleased with this printer. However, if you need to print addresses directly on envelopes you will not be impressed. I have tried multiple times and my envelopes get wrinkled. It was disappointing because that is one of the reason why I need a printer. Instead, I have to print labels which adds more time to my projects. Also, it seems to use more toner than expected. Even with the "toner saver" on it seems to use more than advertised. It does do a very nice job printing and scanning. For the money it is a very good printer.

Excellent value
I have used all features of this combo scanner printer. The scanner is great. The auto feed works well and the OCR software is good. The printer replaces a ten year old Brother LASER printer that I have run several toner cartridges through with never a hiccup. This printer is twice as fast, and the two sided print speed is almost as fast as my old one. I purchased this printer to replace an ink jet combo and the performance of my old Brother convinced me to purchase this printer.

Excellent printer
This is our 5th Brother Printer. Just like all the other printers, the yield per cartridge is excellent and it works like a charm. One improvement I see in this printer is that I can easily get the reading on the pages I have left for the toner cartridge. I also like that, unlike other well-known printer brands, I can use cartridges that are not Brother branded and they work just fine with getting errors from the printer. It prints fast and the pages give a nice, professional look.

Does what I need it to do.
The wifi printing function always works.
I never have to wire it for printing with any device (Mac OC, windows, Android.
The plastic access flaps start after one year of use already to be loose or get stuck while trying to open or close. That's why only 4 stars.

i finally got rid of my two ink-based printers that were nothing but trouble with blocked nozzles. No more color, which I seldom need anyway, and no more ink problems. So far, the Brother printer has worked flawlessly. It was definitely a great choice.

Not too heavy
As my file shows this was a replacement. I had to buy a new drum and toner because The instructions did not clarify those are considered “accessories” and no agent or email specified that so the replacement parts cost more than if I had just bought a new unit which comes supplied with toner and drum. I still don’t understand why they are considered accessories if they are included in original purchase

Outstanding printer!
Reasonably priced, and very reliable fast laser printer. I’ve used inkjet at home for years and was always frustrated with how fast the ink dried up or ran out. Low volume of paper too. This printer is amazing. Extremely easy set up, fast clean printing. Toner lasts forever. All on wifi. So glad I switched to a Brother laser printer.

Have had a couple jams with cardstock but overall, this is an awesome printer. Saved my sanity when I had to work from home. I debated on buying a cheaper printer but figured I'd spend more on ink cartridges in the long run. I can get 15000 copies with one toner cartridge.

Mostly good
Bought the Brother DCPL2550DW spring 2020. Generally easy to use with acceptable performance. However, I can't get it to do a decent job scanning, printing, or copying PDF documents. The colored area of the form always comes out too dark, even after adjusting brightness and contrast. It it wasn't for the PDF thing, I would give it at least 4 stars.

In love with my Brother!
I had a Brother printer years ago that lasted me forever. Unfortunately my husband replaced it with an Epson and boy was that a mistake. I just bought this Brother printer and I am in love again! It prints quickly and has all the features I love just as my old one did. The only drawback is that it doesn't have the media slot that my old one did. I would highly recommend to anyone that doesn't need to do color printing as cartridge lasts much longer.

We have used this product for 3 months.... it was easy to set up to multiple computers. The whole family was using it especially for school. Yet we only got about 500 copies from the toner cartridge before it was notifying that it needed to be exchange. Our other Brother copier we could shake it and get more copies but not this one. Very disappointed with the amount of copies we received.

I bought this printer solely for the excellent jobs it does. I'm an IT specialist by trade and know just how great Brother products are. They require virtually no maintenance, and when they do it's really just a toner cartridge switch. As for this particular model, I use it mainly for the scanning ability. Great scans, excellent quality, and no issues.

Works wellish
I like how I am able to use this printer with my foiling. I find it easier to mostly load my papers in the hopper tray than placing it through the small straightaway opening because when I place it through the straightaway opening sometimes the print becomes tilted. Also I do not recommend printing any envelopes with this printer, it keeps eating them.

Good features
I have had a brother for several years. the wifi card on my old one finally gave out so bought this one as it was a few dollars more and had a scanner. The scanner was actually a pleasant surprise. there is an adf and it does scan small stacks reliably and at a decent speed.
The only issue i am having is that the win10 driver gets tangled up in itself and the printer starts choking on jobs. the only cure so far is to reboot.
solid printer and way cheaper to operate than an ink jet

Well, we finally got tired of printer "ink/liquid platinum".
With a bit/lot of research, we decided to try the Brother DCP-L2550DW Laser printer. We needed the Scan and Copy features so we bought this printer. Prints like a dream, quiet, fantastic copies/print. Will Never got back to a "Inkjet".
It would be cheaper to buy a New inkjet every time it needed ink. With this Laser printer it will probably need a new toner cartridge about the time paper goes out of style.

I upgraded a family member's computer with a solid state drive and Windows 10. I then found out the printer did not have drivers available for Windows 10. I went back to Brother for a new printer. Although the DCP-L2550DW may be considered a budget laser, the print and copy quality are very good. The starter cartridge was generous and we are very happy with the purchase.

Constantly restarting print spooler
As soon as I got it I’ve had to restart the print spooler after every 5-10 print jobs. I used the brother install software. I never had any issues with my previous Brother all in one. Other than that issue though I must say it has been flawless. I assume I will get an updated driver someday that will fix it, but it’s annoying for now.

Excellent quality, features and great value
This is the first time I bought a laser printer so I was a little nervous to do so back in 2018. The fear was gone once the printer/scanner was used, and that is thanks to the excellent quality, features and great value.

Easy to set up and easy to use!
I was reluctant to purchase a new printer when I upgraded my laptop but eventually I ws forced to since the 2 weren't compatible. I chose this brother and I'm thrilled how easy it's been. Setup was a breeze with there step by step guidelines and I still get a thrill whenever I want to print from my phone or laptop and it just does it - not cords or wires necessary!

Does what it needs to
I think this is a great buy for a black and white laser printer. I use this for work in my home office. It's inexpensive, gives great quality printouts, and I'm able to scan from this directly to my computer. Setup was easy, only 1 issue I was able to work through...but I am more technical than most so take that with a grain of salt if you are having issues. Now that it is installed, I was able to easily print from my phone as well. Gave it 4 stars because of the slight issue I had with the install. Plug and play would have earned 5.

A very good buy
My Brother Laser Printer has served me well. It is my 1st laser printer, and I should have got one a lot sooner. I was tired of messing with inkjet cartridges and the mess that can happen with them, or with them drying out from non-use. My Brother Laser Printer is ready to work whenever I'm ready to print something. I rarely ever used the color features in my inkjet printers, so just having a monochrome printer appealed to me. I most often print something that is a hard copy supporting document, so monochrome works well for me. I've used the scanner function to send copies of scanned documents to my laptop, wirelessly, which saves colora lot of confusion because no cable is necessary. The menu on the printer is very helpful, as is the Brother iPrint software. I recommend this printer for a very economical and functional laser print machine.

Nice printer but Toner message is NOT timely.
I like this printer. It prints clearly and and have not had any problems with it but one. When it decides that the toner cartridge needs to be replace there is no warning. It just stops printing and gives the message to replace the toner. Not good when you are in the middle of a project and printing.

This is a great product for a small office setting. Unless you have a need high volume printing TN730 toner is good enough. Setup could be a little daunting for those not IT savvy. However, following the instruction and the online troubleshooting procedure helps. I like the double sided printing features. The printer is a a little bulky but not a problem if you have the space for it. Overall a nice to have.

About as good as it can get
I have been using this printer for several months now. This is NOT my first printer, but I dare say, it is one of my best. I like everything about this printer - from its ease of use, removing a paper jam (happened once with file folder labels, replacing the toner,.. just about everything is easy! The only negative I can imagine is that the printed documents, envelopes and other items don't come out very far after printing. You can see them, and they are easy to retrieve, but if you have a small envelope or something else smaller printed on, you will have to reach inside the opening to get them. But overall, I'd give this printer 5 stars.

This printer was easy to get up and running. Be aware that it does have a large footprint, bigger than I expected. I bought a small rolling cart and store it in a closet between uses. This arrangement works for me. But if you need a printer on a regular basis, that would not be convenient.

Moving from a traditional ink-jet, the Brother is a pleasure. Fast for both printing and scanning. The control menu is not the most intuitive, but you get used to it quickly.

Fast, Good Quality Printing, Crooked Scans
The quality of printing is great, as is the speed of the printer. Using the bed for scanning or copying is just fine, however using the document feeder for multiple page scans is very frustrating. Every page feeds slightly crooked, and no matter how it is adjusted, the paper still feeds crooked.

This replaces an older Brother multi-function printer. I do a good bit of printing for our family business, but not enough to justify a commercial duty printer. It has the features I need - print, scan, and copy, and it takes the high capacity cartridges. I really liked my first Brother printer, and after looking around, I couldn't find a better price and value.

good, affordable printer with a few inconveniences
this is my second Brother Laser printer. I have learned that ALL printers are disposable, whether laser or inkjet, no matter what brand. If you get 2 years or more out of one, you're doing OK.
PRO
1. inexpensive
2. Good print quality
3. Excellent scanning - you have a flatbed AND an automatic feeder. You can easily save scans to PDFs (great so that you don't have to save paper bills
4. Availability of inexpensive 3rd-party replacement toner
5. Setup is very easy -IF- you follow the step-by-step directions they give you. All of the reviews complaining about the setup are from people who didn't follow the instructions. It would nearly impossible to setup without the directions.
CON
1. It says OUT OF TONER long before you are out of toner. (see below for instructions to override the toner message)
2. It doesn't like non-Brother toner cartridges (understandable, since that is how printer companies make money. they make no money selling printers
HOW TO OVERRIDE THE "OUT OF TONER" MESSAGE
The machine says you are out of toner after X number of pages. Really, you will know you are REALLY out of toner when it no longer prints clearly, and taking the toner cartridge out and shaking it doesn't help.
To Reset out of toner error message on Brother DCP-L2550DW,
• Select MENU (“Tool” key)
• Select “General Setup”
• Press OK
• Scroll down to “4 - Replace Toner”
• Press OK
• Scroll to Change “Stop” to “Continue”
• Press OK
• It should say “accepted”
• press Stop/Exit button or BACK button

Ink issue
I don’t like the fact that I can’t change the settings to control how much ink to use when printing. I basically have to buy at least 2 ink cartridges a month. How do or is there a change setting for this problem.

Perfect for home use
Got tired of the endless procession of lousy ink jet printers for home use. Dried up cartridges, expensive replacements, replacement cartridges that didn't work, poor print quality. Decided to take the plunge and do a home laser printer - looked for a relatively inexpensive model that seemed to have all the features we needed - just in case it was a flop. This printer has been fantastic. Easy to set up on line, great print quality. Scans like a champ. Relatively small, quiet - FAST printing. We've had it 3 months now which is usually when an ink jet decides to die. This little guy has had zero issues - has never dropped off the network.

Excellent printer and scanner. Scanning multiple pages is so much easier with the tray on top, rather than lifting the top and putting the paper down, lifting the top, taking that page out, put the next page in. It was also easy to setup.

The L2550 is the perfect home/virtual office device. Super easy to install, and is fast, quiet, full of great features. Duplex printing, full color scanning, mono copying, etc... I have it set up both with Ethernet and wireless. So I can quickly print from my desktop as well as my phone.
I haven’t replaced the toner cartridge yet, I am curious to see how many prints I will get on the starter cartridge. Great product and I have even bought a 2nd L2550 for my son to use in his virtual office.

This is my first wireless printer but not my first Brother printer. I bought this one to use at my winter home and now I want one for my summer home, where I have a conventional Brother laser printer that has been flawless. Setup was so easy! I switched to laser printers for my home office long ago
and this one does not disappoint. I just scanned a document and it also was very easy. Love the automatic feed, too.

Good All in One Machine
This has been a good all in one printer, scanner, fax and copier. It does as it should for each. I would definitely recommend using the Control Center 4 link under utilities for more ease of use, especially with scanning into your computer better then the buttons on the machine. I also like the copy IDs button, for hiring drivers to get both sides on one page.

Exactly as described!
I had very simple but specific needs for this printer. I need a printer that could scan a pile of documents together, as one file. I need a printer that I can scan quick id's, tickets, etc... and I need a printer that I can not use for 3 months, then come back and use with no issue, no dried up ink (it's laser.) The ink is inexpensive and available almost everywhere. This printer has lived up to the billing. Its there when you need it to be, it does absolutely everything and connects wirelessly to every device I have. At this price, it's crazy not to own one of these.

I thought . . . but I was wrong.
I had been happy with Brother laser printers but when my older printer's scanner stopped working because my MAC upgraded I wasn't thrilled. I looked for a stand alone copier, but they were as much as All in Ones sold for, so I went to brother and purchased a new Brother.
However, the copier does not work with my MAC OS, either! I thought I was purchasing a new Brother since the one I had already was several years older. So, I am stuck with another working ALL-In-One that can't COPY! NOT Happy that Brother is passing off older machines as "new" in a society where electronics upgrade yearly, but apparently they don't.

One of the best printers out there
I got this unit to replace my 14 year Brother all in one. Set up was a snap and the print quality is the other side of amassing. Very fast and no noise. Works great on WiFi and direct connect to PC. The only thing I 'm not good with is its ability to wake up and print without having to hitting the start button when it is asleep. My old unit would wake up and print without touching it. A very small issue. Buy this and you will not be sorry.

...well
The printer is fine, crisp images, double-sided printing. My problems are the fact that in my office I print intermittently and the printer falls to sleep, waking it up takes me out of my day and requires me to focus on it, each and every day. Also, double-sided printing is the default. This is a problem as I print P&IDs 90% of the time, so it's an extra step to make sure it only prints on one-side. This may be my problem more than the printer's because I have to remember to de-select double-sided printing, which I don't always do until I have a bunch of schematics printed on two-sides.

Finally a printer that always works! After years and years and going through many different jet ink printers, I finally broke down and bought the Brother DCP-L2550 DW laser printer. I have owned this printer now for a little over two months and had the chance to use most all of the features. First of all it paired with my Apple computer seamlessly! Hooking up to the Wi-Fi was no problem. I can now print with ease from my tablet, phone, and computer! Even my wife’s phone (which is not an iphone is able to send text to the Brother printer from anywhere in the house. No more throwing away half used dried up ink cartridges. With the brother printer you just hit print and it works.

I needed to replace a ever-defective Epson all-in-one and decided I'd had enough with inkjets and their expensive cartridges. I found the L2550DW on Amazon for a good price and had it shipped to me in Costa Rica. I appreciated the ease of use of the printer and the overall quality of the prints. Overall a very good buy!

Love our printer/ scanner. You can air drop to print and then down load an app to scan. It took us a minute to figure out the scan option but now that we have it it works great!

So far so good.
Works as advertised but will wait till I have to change toner. That is when all the printers cease to work. This has been good so far. Had a nice printer that starts with a D and that was good till you had to change toner. Hopeful Brother is better. Time will tell.

Constant connection problem
This printer is great when it works. The problem is that I have to remove and then reinstall the drivers after just about every use. We do not print often so the printer keeps going to sleep and then we are unable to print. I have tried every fix from the brother site and many others from other sites but none of them work. This is supposed to be a reliable wireless printer but sadly is not. Ready to cut my losses and just purchase a new printer from another company.

I have previously owned several inkjet printers. The ink was expensive and would dry up before use since I didn't print a lot. This is not an issue with toner cartridges. They are good until you use them. I have had no issues with this printer at all!

This is my 3rd printer from Brother...and I love them....EXCEPT it locks up and won't print
the qued item about every 20 items. I am unable to get the system to upgrade downloads from Brother..have to Stop the Print, Eventually go to Power Off, wait 15 sec. turn it back on and wait about 1 min or so for it to print the item in que. Have tried working with Brother but they have not been able to solve the problem either.

Difficult to install
I bought this because it was at a great price point with the features I wanted. Setup was clumsy and definitely not straightforward. I attempted several times before I finally connected to my PC. I am still struggling to set up the scanner..
Connecting to my phone was much easier using the Brother android app. That said, print speed and quality are great and the unit has worked flawlessly.

A big disappointment on the “newer” model
I bought, gifted, recommended, this model to my friends and family, and ended up giving away my old and reliable brother to my son and bought this “newer” updated model…WRONG MOVE from my part. This printer just gave me headache and disappointments. First it’s the app upgrade that kept on telling me it has a newer app version but won’t allow me to update it. Next is the network connection; It kept on disconnecting from my network and won’t allow me to print wirelessly and I even tried connecting it in wired mode. I will fix the issues now and later once it goes to sleep, it develops an amnesia and forgot that it is connected to my network. Been doing this connect and reconnecting for 2 weeks; and now I’m looking for another printer…but NOT A BROTHER this time!!!!

Often Frustrating
If it weren't for the Deep Sleep process being unchangeable I would have given a higher rating. I have to restart the printer just about every day because it refuses to wakeup like it is supposed to when I try to send a job to the printer. I get a printer offline message and have to restart the printer to get it to come back online. The regular sleep setting wakes up on a sporadic basis. Sometimes it wakes up when I send a print job, sometimes it doesn't. Very inconvenient that I can't just turn these features off permanently. I have 3 Brother printers two of which have this issue.

Great, Until Something Goes Wrong!
Most of the time the scanner/printer is fine, but there are times when I simply must plug it in to my desktop with a printer cable (which I now keep handy at all times or it can't seem to communicate properly over a wireless connection. I cannot tell anyone how many times I've had to uninstall and then reinstall or how many times I've had to use the unfriendly menu and system setting on the printer to try and get it to function. I am running Windows 10 and and between crummy updates from Microsoft and the unrelated event of having a single document get "stuck" with this print I waste a lot of time fixing things that should not need my attention once the printer/scanner is initially set up. I bought this printer when I purchased my Windows 10 desktop and at that time (two years ago) there was no mention of this ongoing fight between the OS and the printer and the constant need to uninstall and reinstall with updated drivers. This printer tends to act up or fail when it is most critical that I get documents printed for a deadline, and maybe that just goes back to the idea that I don't print every single bit of paper - only what's important. I would not recommend this printer to a friend and I would not replace it with a similar printer. I lose between four and eight hours of productivity per month because of random glitches which I am now getting proficient at identifying and swiftly moving into the dreaded uninstall/reinstall mode. Because I am so disgusted with Bill Gates and Microsoft in general and the Windows 10 OS and updates ad nauseum (that take forever and screw up everything imaginable) I would probably replace my existing computer with an Apple. Maybe everything just sucks these days and maybe that's what we can expect across the board moving forward. This is not a good printer/scanner if you are trying to operate a small business. This printer would be best suited to someone who uses it sparingly and has plenty of time on their hands.

Almost, but not quite!
Everything I've tried so far has been great except envelopes. So awkward to have to remove the back cover, pull down the levers, pull out the tray in front, etc. - all for only 2 envelopes at a time, and a very poor job on small envelopes. I now know that I should have done more research and purchased a model that really prints envelopes.

Great reliable product at a good price
I have one HP inkjet already. But I need to go into a small business that requires quite some amount of printing -- laser printing is the way to go. I actually used a MFC Brother laser printer some 10 years, and I even brought it with me when we moved overseas to work. It was a very reliable printer. I discovered that this office supplies chain I bought from also uses this brand in their operations. They said it is very cost-efficient. I used it for several months by now. I still like it.

Happy with printing and scanning functions. Have not been able to make WIFI communication work with my computer. (ASUS laptop running Windows 7. Company IT expert says, "WIFI printers don't work, don't waste your time troubleshooting it." May spend more time troubleshooting anyway. USB connection works fine.

It seems that the printer notifies you when the toner is running out by putting streaks through the pages. There was no indication that the toner was running out, so it seems that the streaks were designed to retire print cartridges before they had run out of toner.
I'm sorry that there is no way to take single-sided originals and copy them to two-sided copies, as well as no way to take a double-sided original and copy both sides on one page or on two pages automatically.

Great Printer
I love this printer! I got sick and tired of ink cartridges drying out and failing and decided to go to a Laser Jet. This Brother DCP-L2550DW boots up quickly and performs beyond expectations. The print quality is great and print speed is super fast.

Perfect operation
This printer was shipped to my home office and arrived in perfect condition. Set up was easy and fast. It has worked perfectly since day one. I use multi-page scanning daily in my business, so that feature is essential. Paper feeds well. I am satisfied with this printer/scanner.

Works ok but keep getting an annoying false paper jam notice every time I go to print envelopes. I have to open the machine, take out the toner cartridge reinsert it and close the machine back up. Its a pain. Sometimes I have to do it 2-3 times before the envelope prints.

Volume Printer
Great affordable printer. Used for scanning and volume printing. My only suggestion is to enable printing when toner low so you can get the most prints out of the cartridges. This feature sometimes resets when changing a cartridge.

Mac Mohave behaves well, find Webpage and App here
Fast, dependable wifi laser printer-scanner. I have a Mac running Mojave, it works very well.
1. The very useful Printer/Scanner app is kind of buried in this path on a Mac:
/Users/[usernamehere]/Library/Printers/Brother\ DCP-L2550DW\ series.app
But it can be accessed via the control panel in the preferences or you can just search for "Brother DCP-L2550DW series.app". Anyway, this Mac app scans up to 600 dpi and it lets you control Brightness, Tint, Temp and Saturation on the inbound side—nice features.
2. I like that is has a web control page you can access via a web browser, login and control as well as lock down. You can get to this in a funky way: Under the Apple menu choose System Preferences and under "Printer and Scanner" choose your Brother printer. Two tabs: Print or Scan. If you choose "Options and Supplies" button on the Print side of the dialog, you get a new screen that says "Show Printer Webpage..." Click that and you're in, Flinn.
Hope this helps.

Our ink jet printer just kept on clogging and was not printing with clear type, so we opted for a laser printer.

Fast printing with great quality
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. The setup of the printer was very easy and installation of hardware and software took about half hour. First think I did after getting the printer was printing 200 pages of flyers for an event. Some are single sided and some are double sided. With the single side printing, it was great and fast. There were 3 problems when I tried to print the double sided flyers. I got a paper jam with the first sheet and it won`t clear out after I removed the jam paper, so I had to restart the printer. Second problem, when it went out of paper, the print job will not continue after added additional papers. I had to send another print request for the last job to continue. The final problem has to do with the print function. After each job, you have to manually reset back to double sides. It keeps going back to default single side setting.Other than those issues, the printer has been great. I can be anywhere in my house and the network still strong enough for me to send prints. From scale 1-10, I would give it an 7. Overall it is till a good printer. I am not sure how true the ink display is. I only printed 200 pages and it is 1/3 empty.

Good printer for home use
I don't print much, but when I print, I need something that works. I got tired of getting inkjet printers and having problems with ink drying out, so I decided on a laser printer. The DCP-L2550DW works well with Wi-Fi printing and mobile printing. Simple to use and relatively fast. It is monochrome, but I don't print much color, which is fine. I've used the copy, print, and scan functions with no problems.

Keep it awake and it does exactly what I need.
Thing goes into deep sleep and there is no button on the console you can push to wake it up including power button. It just doesn't respond. You must unplug the machine and plug it back in to wake it up. If it weren't for the sleep, it would rate 5 stars. Put a wake me up button on the console would be much better than unplugging. Would be the greatest if it would wake up on its own.

Welcome home Brother!
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. Unpacking: First let me say that this box is huge. The actual printer is of a medium size, but due to the packaging it makes it seem larger than it is. It was pretty easy to set up. I removed it from the box and followed the easy instructions which aren`t really necessary. I put the toner in, plugged it in and it was ready to go.Wireless Setup: Connecting it to my router was simple. I do have a long password for my router and that was time consuming. There is no mini keyboard or alpha-numeric keys to type your password, you have to scroll through the letters (capital and lowercase to get to what you need. Once I connected it, I printed something from my laptop upstairs to my home office which is downstairs. Being a laserjet printer, I expected it to be fast and it was. Before I left my room, My child was yelling that it was done. I used the copier by use of the feeder tray and the flatbed and everything came out clear. I tried the ID copy setting (it scans front and back before printing) and even though the ID was in color, it printed out clear in black and white. There`s no fax component and the scanner worked fine. Overall I had no major issues with this printer. Sometimes I have to do a lot of printing and a laserjet fits the bill. Brother makes really good products and this is another one that I can enjoy. My one con is the scrolling through letters to enter your password for your router. Other than that, this is a welcome addition to my home office.

Once I can get the printer to start printing it is good. However, I always have to unplug my internet and restart it to print. Not sure why that is?

Redo Instructions
First of all I like the printer. The print quality is as good as what you are printing for a black and white. I like all the features especially copying and scanning multiple pages at a time. I also like being able to print on the front and back by just changing the settings. What I don't like are your installation instructions. Throw them away! I couldn't get my PC to recognize my printer. The easiest and simplest way is to connect your printer to your WiFi through your printer. Then insert the disk in your PC and install the software. I gave this 4 stars because of the instructions. There is always room for improvement and this is where you need to improve. Let's see if anybody is listening.

Same performance as the one I bought
I bought this Multifuntion machine to replace a Brothers product I bought 8 years ago. That printer was an exact replacement of a 4 year earlier purchase printer from Brothers. Therefore, this was a repeat purchase due to the successful use of the earlier purchases. This printer doesn't fax. Same performance as my older printer, except this one is wireless. Like being able to print directly from smart phone. I did not try to use download disk. I downloaded software over internet. I would reserve 20-60 minutes for proper installation of software. Installation for simple, in other words, I don't remember any issues.

Excellent Printer with Robust Features!!!
I purchased the 2540 in January of 2015 and I must state that it has served me and continues to serve me extraordinarily well! The 2540 was my second venture into the world of laser printers. I stumbled on this model by happenstance as I did some internet research (on various models) with the biggest feature in mind was the desire to have a network printer. This model (DCP-L2540) met that requirement along with its other great features immensely. However, a known problem came to surface—it was the fact that the DCP-L 2540 would go into a deep sleep and would not awaken unless the machine was powered off and back on. After doing extensive research, I was fortunate to find a solution by changing some settings. Unfortunately, Brother has discontinued the (DCP-L2540) model and this (2550) model is its replacement. I really don’t see but a few major differences that are evident in the two they are:
OLD-Model DCP-L2540:
-Print Speed at 30 ppm
-Toner cartridge used is Brother genuine 630 & 660
-Paperport Nuance 12
NEW-Model DCP-L2550:
-Print Speed at 36 ppm
-Toner cartridge used is Brother genuine 730 & 760 which are now chipped.
-Paperport Nuance 14
I can tell you the performance of this new machine alike the old machine is great as the machine prints out beautiful laser copies at a fast pace, scans clean and produces clean copies as well. The software, Paperport Nuance version 14 is very intuitive as it is user-friendly with many features such as folders for your scans and copies, a desktop for your scans, along with many other useful tools and features that enhances productivity.
This is my sixth device from Brother, 5 of which are printers and 1 scanner. I can honestly say without reservation that Brother really manufactures quality products at affording pricing. Brother cares about their customers as they offer lifetime support of their products with excellent customer care support staff who really aims to resolve problems when they arise. Therefore, if you are in the market for a great printer with robust features at affordable pricing then please don’t look any further because Brother is at your side!

Did not know I had to buy expensive toner with a chip in it for the printer to work. I am used to the TN450 toner which is no problem, but these newer printers you have to use the TN730 or TN760 which is very expensive and they have to have a special chip or the toner will not work.

Great Features and two-sided print AND copy
The Brother DCP-2550DW has great features including automatic 2-sided (duplex PRINTING. I was also pleased to see that it has automatic 2-sided COPYING, too - although it's a bit complicated: You first place the original 2-sided document on the copier then close the lid. Then you push the "copy/scan options" button, then choose "2-sided to 2-sided", press "ok", then press "start". When the display asks "next page"?, you turn the original page over on the copier, close the lid, then press the "up" arrow for "yes". Then, when it asks "next page"? again, you press the "down" arrow for "no", and the 2-sided copy prints just fine. This feature is very handy and much appreciated!

The Brother-DCP L2550DW is a very good printer.The scan & copy feathers takes too long at times to make it copy or scan. One item i would like to see is, have the printer operate independ of having your computer on. If you want to copy or scan an item, you have to turn on your computer for the soft ware to run the computer.

High quality laser printer....easy setup
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. This printer features Triple connectivity which includes USB, Wi-Fi, and Ethernet LAN however I had some trouble connecting with LAN and WiFi in use but went with all WiFi and had no problems. It has nice and speedy 2 sided printing which I loved with a document feeder that worked flawlessly. The Controls were easy to follow without having to consult documentation, I did struggle with finding "toner save" which uses less toner to print as it comes out of the box with a starter toner. I like the 2 in 1 feature which is used to copy front and back of an ID onto one sheet of paper. Print speed is incredibly fast including 2 sided. It lacks a touch screen interface but its not a deal breaker as controls and 2 line LCD screen get the job done. Overall a perfect printer. I will start getting Brother products from now on.

Poor intergration
The printer works great when it is working and only when it decides to work after much manipulations. I initiated,the software as instructed and worked fine but over the years I have havemon and off problems in printing, no so much with my cpu as with my mobile device, using brother printer app. I have talked with Microsoft community but to no avail.

Great printer
I wish I had gotten a laser printer years ago. Ink jet printers have too many problems especially if not used very often such as clogged print head. If I need
color prints I just go to Wal-Mart This Brothers is a winner and nothing to clog.

Just great!
This is my 4th Brother lazer copier or printer. Each one has been above my expectations. Why 4? Because I have worn them out after years of use and thousands and thousands of copies and/or prints. This one is the best yet. I am using it as both printer and copier. The feeder works perfectly. When printing multiple sets of multiple pages, they come out collated and ready to staple. I have not used the duplex feature yet and I have it cabled to my computer rather than via WiFi so don't know how well these work. The small information screen is very easy to read which is a huge improvement over previous models I owned. I never even consider any other brand. Great price too.

Great quality machine!
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. This is such a wonderful machine! I have used it for a few weeks now, and I have had no issues with it. The instructions were easy and the set up worked flawlessly with my Mac. I haven`t had any connection issues since setting it up. I love all the different features on it, such as working wirelessly, automatic duplex printing, and the beautiful quality prints it produces. This is the perfect little machine for my small office that does everything I need it to, and does it well. Printing and scanning is fast, and this machine has been so easy to use. I am so happy to have replaced my inkjet printer with this laser one. The quality and ease is such an improvement to what I had. They have thought of everything with this machine.

Wifi connection doesn't work with Windows 10
I have this printer and have printed with it using an ethernet cable. I have tried downloading the drivers, checking all the pins and wifi passwords and this printer will not print over wifi, even worse, it won't scan to my laptop. I have used windows trouble shooter and the brother online trouble shooter. Really disappointed.

My DCP-L255ODW works quite well. It is simple and functional, it just sits there waiting for a print job and then works. Way to go! One area of improvement would be to work on the software linking process for wireless and try to streamline it a bit more.

I don't do a lot of printing and got tired of the inkjet printers ink drying out just when I needed to print. I don't do much color printing so decided to go with the great little printer. Fast printing, scanning, and I really like the two sided feature. If I need color printing, I can go to Office Depot, UPS, etc. and get it done.

This all-in-one printer/copier/scanner is just what my office needed. It's quiet and takes up hardly any desk space. I was so impressed I bought one for home. The only thing I'd revise is the paper output area. Would love to have the paper extend about an inch more. Otherwise, 100% satisfied.

envelopes and manual feed
I'd give this printer a zero if I could. In order to print on an envelope, you have to first pull the printer out, then open a cover on the back, then reach way up inside of it to flip two tabs down (all while standing on your head to see back there), and then you put the envelope in the slot on the front, then EVERY SINGLE TIME it will give you a paper jam, then you have to clear the jam, THEN you can print your envelope, which comes out the back of the printer, so then you have to again stand on your head to reach back around to the back to retrieve the envelope, THEN you have to flip the two green tabs down again, close the rear panel, and reposition the printer back on your desk. Five minutes all in every time you print an envelope. Did the designers not know that we users put these printers on a desk or against a wall so that the back is facing a wall, and that there are other things all over these work areas so that you can't get back there to flip this hatch open and flip these tabs every single time you want to print an envelope. I mean, this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen.

Brother DCL-L2550DW
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. My review is the Brother DCL-L2550DW printer was below my expectations. The wireless set up would not connect with our 5G internet and it was difficult to get it to connect to our laptop. Once we finally got it connected, it printed fine. However, the next day we were trying to scan some pictures and it would not connect to our PC. We STILL have not been able to get it to connect. I do not recommend this product if you plan on using it for its wireless connection fuctions.

However I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of setting up this multi function printer. I easily hooked it up online too!! Its great for our household/ small business purposes. If the kids forget their homework we can easily print it out and we can photocopy paperwork and forms. We never need to fax, so not having one in this product is not a problem. The quality of this laser printer is great and it runs great. I would definitely recommend this multi function printer!! It sits perfectly on the corner of my desk.

Better; Easier than HP
My only disappointment is that you have to load one page at a time in the fold out tray. So if you want to print legal sized paper, you have to either feed one sheet at a time or take the time to rearrange the size of the paper tray. But that's it. Otherwise, we LOVE the printer. We have this one and the MFC model.

Good printer for home
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. I have been wondering for a while if a personal scanner/printer/copier would be helpful addition to my home office space. As a performer and freelancer I am often required to print out audition materials, scripts and resumes at a moments notice, sometimes only receiving them late in the evening. I am also often required to send signed contracts and work forms that can only be scanned. For these things I had mostly relied on the local library or office shop, but that wasn`t often convenient and was sometimes pricey. This machine was exactly what I needed.It came 98% assembled, only had to put the ink cartridge in place, pug in and it was ready to copy. Connecting it to wifi proved a bit tricky, the quick set up guide was a little more vague than I had hoped and left me at a dead end, but I called the Brother support helpline and they were prompt, patient and super helpful. Once connected the machine was ready to go. Copies cam out quickly and clearly,documents printed quickly from my email and scans showed up in good time as well. The machine worked nearly as well as the large office copier that I use at my office job.My major problems are that the machine is a little bulky if you have a small space it will be a tight squeeze, Also, the instructions could be a little clearer. I found myself having to figure out a lot of how the printer works myself, opening up the littl doors and pulling on the handles until I figured out how it physically worked. Overall, a very good machine for a home office.

High Quality Printer
Have had the printer for about one month now and I can report that I like it very much! It is the highest quality printer I’ve ever owned! First laser I’ve had, and I wish I had bought it many years ago. Just a little more expensive than a inkjet, but much higher quality. The actual print is sharper and clearer. Don’t know yet how long the ink cartridge will last, but it’s my understanding that it will last much longer than the inkjet cartridges did.

My Review for DCP-L2550DW
I love the printer. Set up was easy. Driver updates and downloads were seamless. The duplexing works great. I love the single sheet feed feature. I also like the small footprint. I only wish it was a color printer.

Great Savings!
Printed alot of documents for work. Printing costs with the Brother is so much less than inkjet, and printing is faster. Haven't counted perse, but it appears that 3000 pages per cartridge is accurate. Read the reviews on issues with connectivity via wifi, but it connected flawlessly to my computer and all the cell phones. Able to wirelesly print from all.

I bought this because I needed a smaller version of my at-work printer/copier/fax, with an added scanner. I have been used to using Brother printers for many years, and this little machine fit the bill. It works great, it is the perfect size for my at-home office, and has all the same options as my larger capacity work machine. Extremely happy with this purchase.

Nice Printer
This is a nice printer and a good value. One minor complaint. The toner cartridge default setting is to not allow any printing when the cartridge is low. The software will not allow you to change the settings until you put a new cartridge in. So I had to go to the store and buy a new cartridge to change the default setting to keep printing when it is low. After I changed the setting, I put the old cartridge back in and used it until it ran out, which was for another 100 pages.

Could Be Better
This is good printer and scanner overall. No complains about general quality. Few things that bother me and make me regret my purchase: 1 - Duplex printing constantly jams with good quality 24 lb paper. 2 - Manual paper feed always produces skewed print output and / or jams paper because it cannot get straight to the printer. A longer paper feeder would solve the problem.

The Printer Works Perfectly BUT I Wish it Had...
I purchased this printer because I needed a new scanner. By making this purchase I got a scanner and printer; a nice bonus. I only wish the scanner scanned both sides of the document (duplexing. Because this model doesn't have the convenience of duplexing you have to manually turn each page and that's a drag. Nevertheless, the unit does perfectly what it's supposed to do.

Excellent quality and features
As a writer and researcher, I was in need of a printer that would produce several hundred pages with one cartridge and still be within a price range I could afford. This printer has surpassed all my needs. It's scanning and OCR capabilities are great and the two sided printing is a real plus. Toner replacement is easy on the budget as I go through quite a bit. I am very pleased with this product.

Brother DCP-L2550DW Printer review
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. This printer was delivered in good shape. It had clearly been dropped, but the ample packing materials protected the printer even though the box seam had burst about 4 inches starting at the corner. I was happy that a return/exchange would not be required because of the ample protection Brother provided inside the box.After unpacking, I saw that the printer was almost completely ready to go, requiring only the routine installation of the toner cartridge. During the initial look at the layout of the machine, I saw that one of my least favorite attributes of today`s MFD`s (and other products is the use of a certain type of plastic that just makes any product seem, and sound, like a very inexpensive toy rather than the hi-tech item it is. Movement of the paper trays, or any moveable part of the case, results in a plastic type rattle. Small gripe I know, but I go back to the Dot-Matrix printers that had cases strong enough to support a small human. I advise against that test on today`s printers. I would love to see, at the least, the judicious use of some padding, or a rubber-like spray in appropriate areas to keep not only the "look and feel" but also the sound a little less toy-like. That aside, the machine was ready to go in minutes.First Use was a breeze, thanks to the oversize (20"x14") clearly stated, and rigorous instruction sheet. I don`t believe I have ever seen a better example of Occam`s Razor than that used by the creators of this self-guided journey to a configured MFD. From unpacking to wireless setup to using your mobile device, it`s all there, and if there are two ways to do the same thing, they describe both next to each other. Of course, there is the "Support" web page for more in depth information if needed. The included CD contains required software, and there are web sites given to get the latest revs.Performance was excellent...after wireless setup, the device found my wireless network and I was in business. Print quality is as good as I have seen in this price range at standard settings, and a typical menu system is available to tailor your print/scan/or copy needs.Yes, you can use your mobile device to send documents or photos to the DCP-L2550DW. Full instructions outline the simple process. As always, beware with ANY wireless device. Read as much as you can stand in the Release section legalese. Your data is pretty much up for grabs when you allow other service providers to carry it on their networks. When idle, the device is always sniffing for a service request, on your network. Yes, all manufacturers do it as part of the functionality of the device. This comment is not meant to criticize this product, just to remind users of the reality of these terrific machines.

Great features overall fo a great value
I love that this printer has WI-FI, and also prints 2-sided to save paper. The only criticism I have is the paper holder/extender piece is not long enough & doesn’t have an edge to prevent pages from falling out when printing multiple pages and/or jobs. My last Brother printer had a larger one that worked well. Hopefully they’ll consider this in future models.

Print alignment
The text quality is excellent however the text position varies in some modes. When printing 8 1/2 x 11 from the computer the text is straight top to bottom existing from both rear door and front area. When copying a full page from the document feeder the text tilts to the left at the top. When the paper loads from the document feeder it appears to move to the right and wrinkle up at the end of the feed.
When I load envelopes from the front the text tilts down to the right.
I get the same results when printing a full sheet of labels. The label sheet will also seem to move to the right when loading. A single label
sheet prints ok except occasionally it will tilt also. I make the proper adjustments for labels when printing them.
Unfortunately I missed the exchange period at Office Depot.

Love the printer
Had trouble with the last 2 HP printers doing anything right. Re-evaluated my printing needs and decided that the monochrome was all I needed...
Simply connected it via wifi and it worked for all my needs. Laptop, tablet, it just works.
I am also impressed with the dry ink (so to speak) that it won't dry out and is VERY economical.
Will buy another one if this one ever wears out.
A GREAT printer for very little money. Dependable, economical, not a space hog, what more can I say.

Printing from home.
I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. I received this product in exchange for my unbiased opinion. Owning a home business requires the use of a printer. And working from home allows me lots of freedom. I can get work done on the couch, in the kitchen, on my back porch, or in bed. For my business needs I have owned a printer for years, and each time it comes time to print I would connect my laptop via the usb cord, and it didn`t seem too much of a hassel. However! After the simple step by step directions for setting up this printer on WLAN I was able to air print from my iphone and laptop. Immediately after the first document I printed from my phone I flashed back to all the getting up and carrying my laptop over to my desk and then reaching down to find the cord that fell behind the desk and woomp woomp woomp. NO MORE! Just PRINT!

Great printer, issues with the scanner
The printer is great, it prints quickly, it's quiet, the ink is dry as soon as it's finished printing, it handles small text well, the ink cartridge lasts forever, etc. I have been very happy with it so far.
(Also, it comes with an ink cartridge, I didn't know this when I bought it so I got an extra one, I'm not sure if it says that anywhere.)
However I have had a couple of issues, mostly with the scanner. I have a Mac & when scanning in greyscale using the 'Scanner' app it is unable to scan it. It comes out like tv static. I have spoken to customer service about this & they told me to use 'Image Capture' but when I use image capture I am only able to scan in b&w and my colour scans come out the same way- like tv static.
So, when scanning;
in colour - use the Scanner app,
in greyscale - use image capture.
I have also had little to no luck using the document feeder which is one of the things that I was very excited about when buying this printer. It has the same issue with colour vs greyscale as the flatbed scanner does, but I also haven't had any luck getting the pages to scan correctly. The left edge of the page usually gets cut off & put on the right side - like it isn't calibrated or something - or, if that doesn't happen, the scan will be crooked, so the text isn't aligned with the page.
I am a little frustrated about the scanner - you'd think a $300 printer would be more compatible with Mac products but I guess it works well enough once you figure it out, the rest of the printer sort of makes up for it.
I also wasn't able to register for the warranty. I don't know why, I was just having issues with the site, it wasn't accepting my serial number.
Other than that it's been great !

Accurate suggested numbers of prints
I had used this printer since early Oct, mainly used for printing out school worksheets for my kids, I would say half printouts are with paragraphs (double lined) and half are with pictures, I used it with the "draft" quality and finally the 1st toner of the bundle ran out, so I checked the page counter which shows the prints at 696! I learnt from work that you need to take out the toner and shake abit for a few more prints, so I did and when I got 2 more printouts the printer stops at 698. Also it shows 14 copies for photocopy, so basically I am using it up to the max of the suggested numbers of prints. The only thing is it jams quite often if you put the sheets on the slot and only 1 sheet at a time, so better just put it in the tray instead. I wonder where to recycle the cartridge now???

Great product, glad I bought it
I received my printer yesterday, unpacked it, did the initial set up, and I was really glad and pleasantly surprised the the set up/installation was pretty smooth, no hassle at all. To be honest I was a bit anxious as reading so many reviews online I had seen some people complaining about the setup using Wifi, I did choose Wifi setup and it worked out pretty smooth, I was done with everything in about half an hour. After that I printed, copied and scanned, everything worked pretty well. I would definitely recommend it.

Not user friendly.
WiFi machine. Would recommend other. Control panel screen is complex and not easy to use when trying to do copies and then printing. Multiple printing copies difficult. Will tend to print the first 4 pages of a 10 page job, stall, go to sleep and, if you somehow manage to wake it, will then print of the same 4 pages and then the complete 10 pages. It is slow in recognizing print commands and will often need to go into computer device printer settings to refresh print job and even then it will double print when it final recognizes the print command. Having had many printers over the years both at work and at home, this has been the worst one I've ever had. It is certainly the most difficult to run just simple print jobs. A competitor's $40 printer is much easier to run than this model by Brother.

I bought this printer a few months ago and the toner stopped working. I went and bought a new toner and the printer is still not working. It is saying its low meanwhile I just put in a brand new one. I called the store I bought it from and they told me to contact Brothers. I could not find an email on the website to contact them as I am at work during the week and do not get home till 6. Their hours of operation is until 6 and are closed on the weekends. I spent lots of money on the printer and on the toner itself. I would not get a product that is not covered by the store you buy it from. Clearly, this is the issue I am having now because the store doesn't want to help me and sending me to Brothers and I can't get a hold of Brothers because their live chat is off after 6 as well. If anyone has an email for Brothers please let me know so I can contact them. I am not happy with this product at all.

Doesn't connect with computer
The printer rarely if ever connects with my computer. Every print task requires multiple attempts. It routinely says the printer is not responding. The printer is rage inducing and at this point I'd pay someone to get rid of it. Never buy.
Brother, you are going to have to significantly up your game. You're dead to me as a company.

I would buy this product again
It took a while to figure out how to set this up both in a wired and wireless network. once I had the software to set it up everything went well. The "manual" was a little helpful but could have been better with more information. I now have it connected in a wired and wireless network for all my APPLE and PC hardware. it does print a nice crisp document. I also have a H-1230 but it doesn't seem to work well with APPLE devices, hence this purchase.

my starter toner gives me less than the standard with 17% and when I contacted the customer support, they said this is an approx and this percentage is acceptable for the ISO standards!

I have two of these printers for my personal use. I also bought the printer as a gift for another person. The printer is ideal for home use, directly linked to a computer or linked through wifi to portable devices. It is easy to install, relatively inexpensive and the support from Brother is fantastic.

This printer doesn't work with AFCI circuit breaker!
Be Aware! This printer doesn't work with AFCI (Arc-fault circuit interrupters) circuit breaker! And most of homes in North America have AFCI circuit breaker installed for rooms. According to Canadian electrical code they have to.
I bought the printer and noticed as soon as I start printing or when printer warms up my circuit breaker pops. I learned that some brother printers have this issue. Contacted customer support and followed all instructions and it didn't fix it. They told me I have to show it to an electrician. I hired an electrician and he checked wiring and circuit breakers and said nothing wrong with my wiring.
Obviously I have opened the box and cant return it. Wish brother put a note on its printer and warn it doesn't work with AFCI cicuit breakers.

Could not buy the product asked for
I tried to buy the product on the Brother website, but the checkout errored out at the last minute for no apparent reason, but the amount was still being put on hold in my credit card. I could not see any order in my Order History page. I contacted support and they said that they did not see the order at all. Eventually, they did release the hold on my credit card. But why I received an email thanking me for my purchase and asking me to write a review of my purchase is beyond me. Instead, I am writing a review of my experience while attempting to purchase the item.

Issues with paper feeding through manul slot and ADF
Fast printer, good printing quality for texts, if feeding paper from paper tray.
Issues:
1) When feeding paper from manual feed slot on the front or ADF on the top, the paper never comes out straight. The prints is inclined and the paper is rumpled. Really annoying. Cannot feed more than one sheet from manual feed slot, otherwise multi-pages will be fed through.
2) The prints is easily be wiped off by erasers, which in my mind should not happen on a laser printer. For bigger chunk of grey space, sometimes the printer cannot print out the color evenly.
Conclusion: OK for day-to-day work. But if you have demands for paper feeding, say for scanning, or if you need high quality graphic printing, this printer is not the one for you.

I would buy this product again.
Good, reliable printer. Reasonable cost per page for printing. Used for seniors monthly newsletter, delivery lists, etc. Bit of a learning curve, but simple to use once you understand the controls. Prints both sides of page in auto, but only scans one side at a time. Need to save the scan and join the two pages into one file in order to auto print two sided copy. Not really difficult, but not the simple, one step operation of a more expensive unit (reason for the 4 stars instead of 5)

Great printer, scanner and copies.
I ve had this printer for a year now and I love how simple and reliable it is. The automatic feed is a great feature. My old printer, an ink jet, never worked. There was always a problem with the ink or the wireless connection. The best thing about this is that it works every time I need it.
My sister has decided to get the same one for the same reasons.

A Problem With Software Accompanies This Product
The scanner program is not user friendly and simple. I constantly receive messages that my scanner is not connected to my network when it is actually is only 4 feet away and physically connected. Program updates seem to create disablement of the unit until I create some work around. The toner cartridges and drum are unreasonably high in their retail pricing structures.

Okay
I just set up the print in January and I already need to replace the toner. I’ve printed maybe 100 pages. Hoping I got a dud toner. The printer itself works great but it was purchased so I wouldn’t need to replace cartridges monthly so I’m a little bummed.

A very good machine
After owning a couple of 2700s I bought this machine and have been very satisfied with its quality and performance. it has fewer bells and whistles but I didn't need them anyway, and for how I do use it it does an excellent job. My only beef is that I can't convince it to make one-sided printing the default setting and have to manually select that option each time I print; if not for that I'd happily give it five stars.

Could be great but misses the mark
A couple of things. This printer on standard out of the box settings does NOT print dark enough and it's copying settings are even worse. I had to adjust it (which in my opinion is a PAIN) to get it to copy and print at a proper readable tone. Once I fixed that, there are no other copy/print issues. I do find the scanning to be a bit of a pain as well but it has more to do with the tiny screen and software rather than the actual scanning itself. The unit works great in that regard. And, lastly, why on earth would Brother make a printer password protected just to the software/driver updates on my computer?? The password is not listed anywhere on the printer so at this point, I can't update the driver. So frustrating! I want to love this printer/copier/scanner but because it's not user friendly, I'm not a big fan.

Office-quality printer you can have at home
For those who don't want a color printer, this one is easy to use, provides office-quality output, prints double-sided, and uses an office-sized ink cartridge (rather than the combination of small "ink pots" with three colors and black that run out quickly in many printers). Great price for what you get.

Draws far more power than the specs say
Bought this to replace an older HP MFC in my mobile office, which ran for years off a 1000W inverter that allows a temporary surge of up to 1300W. According to the sales website, this printer should draw around 500W when printing. That might be an average, because the live monitor on inverter was showing a range of 350-800W. Unfortunately, when the printer first turns on however, its start up process spikes to 1350W+, which trips my inverter's safety and discontinues power. In short, misinformation on the website made this the wrong unit for my needs. When plugged into a standard house outlet, however, it behaved beautifully.

WIFI function is glitchy.
Love the printer, love the idea of using black ink and not color for printing black but we also rely on the wireless function the printer. After a week of unuse the DCP Brother printer seems to go to sleep and the PC status shows off line. Nothing wakes it up when we try to print. After several attempts of reloading the driver the simplest fix is to unplug and plug power cord back in again. All our other wireless machines, phones, TVs and speakers work perfectly. I wish the 'big brain' programmers would have been trained in programing for 'wireless' part of wireless printers.

Great Black and White Laser Printer
I was tired of buying ink for our old inkjet printer and wanted to upgrade to a laser printer. For the price this is the prefect printer for our home, it’s very easy to use, the auto feeder works great, scanning documents is a breeze and back to back printing is a plus. The print quality is also fine for our needs.

THE BEST PRINTER EVER!
I am simply delighted with this product and regret that I hadn't purchased it years ago. It is everything that one would hope to find in a printer. Among the many fine features are the facts that I can save money by not having to buy ink cartridges or replenish my paper supply as frequently. Also, I appreciate the many messages offering technical support, if needed. I will be informing my colleagues and friends of this excellent printer. Much good luck and keep up the fine efforts.

Only a Brother printer will do!!!
This printer is fantastic! I have it up in my home office and can print from anywhere in the house. Works like a charm! I will never buy another ink printer and probably never buy a printer that isn’t a Brother. My husband has one that isn’t wireless and has had it for many years so I’m hoping this will last me as long!

14 year old DCP7040 upgraded to big Brother:)
I purchased a DCP 7040 in 2008. It was still working fine but as I was coming on to need a new drum, I decided to upgrade. My new DCP- L2550W meets all expectations and now I have Bluetooth wireless printing even from my phone. I expect this printer will last as many years as it's younger Brother :)

BROTHER Printer review
I wanted a black and white printer. I previously had a Canon that was still working well. I tried an Epson and was not happy with it. I got this Brother and it has been working well except it keeps wanting to do double sided so I have to check it every time I print. Overall I am satisfied.

Great workhorse of a printer
I love the functionality of this printer. It is a well used, dependable item. I do wish that when photocopying it would default to sort instead of stacking. It causes delays in putting bundles together when I have to sort them myself. Other than that it is fantastic!

Disappointed
I was not impressed with the printer and setup. I was just disappointed when I found getting to my computer that text all came out garbally. It was unreadable it was just a bunch of nonsense. I was under the impression that it was two sides again so the document feeder but it does not two side scan at all. Sorry really disappointed that I had to call three times to get the printer to communicate at all.

Difficult set-up, great printing.
Never owned a Brother printer until now. Bought a simple laser printer. Never worked so hard to connect a printer! Took forever, in fact gave up the first time and went back to it a week later. Bought laser because I don't I no longer do much printing at all and I was told that laser would be a better choice with no ink cartridge to dry up. The printer itself works great. No complaints about the quality of printing, just the set up. ONce thats done, you'll have a really nice printer.

Works Like a Clock
The DCP-L2550dw works well and does an acceptable job of printing for us. It gives consistent quality and has few glitches. It is easy to install on all work platforms (We use it with computers running Xp, Windows 7 and Windows 10). Generally we are happy with this printer, albeit, it does cause us some concern, as it is quite loud while operating. It has worked consistently for us, but the noises make us wonder if at any moment it could grind to a halt.

I purchased this printer several weeks ago. I have it in my home office. It was easy to set up and I had no problems printing and copying. It's quick, has 2-sided printing, and it was easy to print wirelessly via bluetooth. It is loud and the lights flicker in the room when I'm using it. Doesn't bother me so I'm happy with the purchase.

Terrible Support Service
Bought this printer with an extra tone cartridge. The printer went through the toner twice as fast as was promoted on the box, supports solution was to reset the toner to trick it into continuing to print. Then it completely stopped printing wirelessly at all, support was unable to troubleshoot. We now have been trying to get it warrantied to no avail.

DCP-L2550DW
My Brother DCP-L2550DW is working fine now. I had some issues after set up that it did not connect automatically with my computer even though the WIFI in the printer was connected. I had to re-connect by choosing my WiFi and entering the password multiple times to reconnect my printer every time I open my computer and try to print. The issue seem to have resolved at the moment and I am hoping it stays resolved. In fact I was so frustrated at the beginning that I was ready to re-box the printer and return it to Office Depot. However now it is working fine (cross my finger).

Disappointed with most Customer Support reps
This is a replacement for my original colour Brother MFC-J5830DW printer. It took many hours of my time & elapsed weeks to finally get the printer connected to WIFI. It was over the ability of Chat reps to solve the problem, & Senior Techs said they'd contact me at their convenience but they didn't. I eventually found a knowledgeable Chat Rep who knew how to solve the problem. Thank you! I also don't like how minimal the User Guide is. I much prefer my previous Brother printer but I couldn't afford to replace it. I'm not the happy Brother customer that I once was.
Brother: Please stop asking me to rate my satisfaction.

Good printer. Decent scanner
I like having a laser printer it's cleaner and more efficient than the inkjet that I replaced. I found that I don't need color nearly as often as I thought. I don't miss not having color prints. It works well on my network and I like that it has an Ethernet port.
When it comes to the scanner I'm less enthusiastic. The resolution is okay perfectly fine for text. However, I do scan album artwork like CD artwork and those don't come out as well as my prior printer scanner combo unit. I knew the resolution was lower going into the purchase so I don't want to knock it too much but it would be nice to have a higher resolution scan. In terms of the scan software it lacks a setting to Auto crop based on the content being scanned. So, if I scan CD artwork I have to manually select a size that's close to the the artwork and then crop it myself. The scan software for my prior printer did autocrop and it was very nice. This is why I give it four stars instead of five.

Great for all black and white printing
I am for the most part happy with this product. We seldom have the need for color printing and in fact black and white photos print very nicely. The economy of the toner cartridge is more than twice that of ink-jet printers. My only complaint is that the printer goes into a "deep sleep" mode and iin my experience, it is difficult and frustraiting to "awaken" the device.

Great printer for just over 200 bucks.
Had a Lexmark printer for probably 15 years. Was time to get a new cartridge but the scan had issues so a new printer too. I did my research (mainly lexmark) and narrowed down 2 printers. We went to Office Depot for supplies and the sales person there recommended this printer. I was skeptical but we purchased it anyway. I used it a few times for tax printouts and other documents. Easy to set up. Wireless is awesome. Great printer that is fast and 2 sided without having to turn documents and reprint on other side. I am amazed at this for just over 200 bucks. Great for home office.
