I was looking for a printer that could handle scanning and printing 11 x 17 inch paper. This one does and it does it well. It is great having two (2) paper trays (meand you don’t waste time swapping out paper and having to readjust the tray each time) AND a manual feed in the rear (allows the use of other types of media – envelopes, photo paper, other specialty papers, etc.). I also like the fact that this unit holds a lot of ink. I was very tired of having to constantly purchase ink. I am very satisified with its capability and performance at this point in time. Time will tell on its durability but it is a beefy printer so I imagine it will last a while. I highly recommend this product to those who need the larger format paper.

Scanning to a computer on the network is more troublesome than necessary. You need a software program on the computer to receive the scan. It seems impossible to select a scan in JPG, PDF, or TIFF format!

The MFCJ6945DW is the first Brother Product that I purchased, it is hands down ten times better than the previous HP Officejet Printers I have owned. Brother is more reliable, does great printing, and gas better features. ” Will never go back to HP”.

Amazing machine. Definitely medium-office size and quality, although I found some of the plastic to be a little on the skimpy side. Takes a bit of use to get familiar with the unusual (to me) 90 rotated paper tray, but no big deal. Scanning through the ADF is smooth and easy, as is the glass scan, although the lid is fairly heavy and awkward to open, but this need be done only for special items, I might reserve my smaller scanners for receipts and photos. Software a bit different from my years of HP design, but not a bother to learn. If it truly has a year’s worth of ink in the box, that’s major right there- remains to be seen, as does the cost of a new tank or estimated cost per copy. All in all this is about the most industrial printer I have owned for home use, and I love it.

Love it, period. Replaced an older version, which I liked: this is even better with some improved features.

Love everything about it but finding replacement parts, I broke the out feed tray and can’t find a replacement

I am happy with it so far. 50 page scanner and copier is a good feature. Ink supposedly only once a year is also as well.

Works great for bulk printing. Just a bit bulky but does a real good job

We are pleased with the ability to print ledger size as well as other sizes. The fact that we can go 2 months between ink refills is a great plus!

Overall, I like this printer much better than the top-of-the-line HP multi-function I had previously. However, all of your labeling in Tray 1 is confusing: I had to lookup most of your designations, like A5, B4, B5, B6, etc. For example, I had to experiment to find out that the common No. 10 envelope is shown as Com-10. Also, according to the description on your website, I could not print a 5×7 or 8×10 photo. I only found out that I could print those sizes and larger because I called Brother, and I was assured that those sizes could indeed be printed. I almost didn’t buy the printer because of those omissions in your website description. Also, your automatic ink shipping process was not explained to my satisfaction. I signed up for ink-shipping almost immediately because a salesman told me that the initial ink cartridges had a minimal amount of ink and would have to be replaced after printing a few dozen sheets. But when I called up Brother I was told that, no, they would probably last for possibly a year. So I paid for ink I would not be getting for many months, but I was given no information on the ink-shipping process. However, most, if not all, of my complaints, are because of lack of clarity or explanation in your descriptions. Otherwise, so far, I’m well satisffied with the printer

I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. The Brother all in one printer system I received so far seems to be an excellent product. Assembly was super easy; I generally have a difficult time installing ink cartridges but these ones were simple. I love that the printer came with a YEAR worth of ink. The printer functions perfectly, the colors are true and do not run. Some printers I`ve used leave weird random lines on the paper but this one does not do that at all. The copier is very nice and simple to use Overall the instructions are easy to follow when operating the machine. My only complaint (and not really even a complaint just observation) is that I was not anticipate needing how big the product would be. I had to actually buy a new stand for it as I had nowhere else it would fit in my house It`s too big to sit on top of a file cabinet, for instance. It`s also a bit heavy to lift. Overall I am VERY satisfied with this all in one machine and would certainly recommend it to others, especially anyone who has a home office setup as it saves space versus using several different pieces of equipment.

I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. I teach infant and toddler music classes, and part of my job responsibility includes printing and copying out music sheets for the parents. The printer and copier in my home office gets a lot of use every week, and plays a vital role in my weekly preparations.When I received the Brother MFC-J6945DW InkJet for my office, I was very excited to try it out! I appreciated that it has everything I need in one unit: printer, copier, scanner, and fax.ASSEMBLY: The Brother MFC-J6945DW InkJet comes fully assembled in its box. The box and its contents are quite heavy, so it`s probably best to have two people take it out of the box.SET-UP: Setting up the printer was intuitive, and the included instructions were comprehensive. From taking it out of the box to being fully functional and ready to go took approximately thirty minutes. This includes connecting it to WiFi, installing the ink toners, and downloading the software to your computer.PROBLEMS: While I personally have had no issues with the printer, some might find downloading the software and updating the drivers cumbersome. It also adds additional programs to your computer (specifically for scanning), which some customers may not want to use.Additionally, the copier is not automatically set up for legal size paper. You will have to manually adjust it to fit most standard printer paper.USE: I found the Brother MFC-J6945DW InkJet to be very easy to use! The touchscreen is responsive and intuitive. It prints very quickly, and there are no smudges or smears on the paper. The copier and scanner functions are also quick, with quality results. Overall, I am highly satisfied with this product, and it is a fantastic addition to my home office.

Great machine, a little grumpy with WiFi, but restart the unit and most times it’s ok. Excellent quality pictures with correct settings as described in the manual. Read the manual before complaining, many things are addressed.

I only have this for couple of months and so far is working great, Let see in 6 month to yeard

This is the best printer I ever purchased. Easy to set up and very fast. I previously had HP printers, but the ink was becoming very costly. I also like the 11×17 capability.

The second one was the charm. Some issue with the first one I received was handled quickly and efficiently by the seller. Now all is well and the printer is a gem.

This printer fits the bill for me for I often print in letter, legal, and 14 X 17 sizes. I can load all of these three paper sizes in the three provided trays and never have to keep changing paper sizes in other trays as I have had to do in the past. and the color?? AWESOME! I do have one problem though, I broke an ear off of the paper catcher on top. it works but I do need to replace this little tray peace. If you can let me know who I can contact to get this fixed, I would greatly appreciate it. Great Product Brother Peeps. Keep up the Good Work!

We’ve only been using the printer for two weeks, but, so far, it’s met all of our needs. Ask me again in a year or so. That’ll be the real test.

I bought this printer for my home business based on good reviews and personal recommendations. The double sided reading and printing was important for me. I often use the the wireless printing from my phone. The printer worked flawlessly for 11 months until I had a paper jam. It continued to jam even after following the instructions from the screen, the internet and from a customer service chat. After calling Brother directly they sent a replacement within the week and I am back up and operational again. I was fortunate that it occurred while still within the Brother 1 year warranty and that they stood behind their product.
