It is a larger printer, but fit well in the corner of the desk which allowed for full functionality. Set up was extremely easy and it was ready to use in a matter of minutes from taking it out of the box. I was also able to connect it via Bluetooth and print directly from my phone, Ipad, and laptop. It prints very quickly and the pages come out clean and without smudges or streaks. The copy function allows for a top feed of multiple pages, which is very efficient and saves a lot of time. The only complaint that I have is that the cord is dedicated and can`t be swapped out if it goes bad. Overall, I am very pleased with this printer.

The MFC-L2717DW works great as a USB-connected printer/copier, but needs better directions to set up Wifi printing. Unfortunately, the Scanner does not have AutoCrop (a basic feature in most other scanners), cannot scan double-sided, and cannot scan at 800dpi (only 600dpi/small file or 1200dpi/hugemongous file).

The machine itself is very well made & works well, but the software & drivers are a headache. Even with firewalls turned off every PC I install the software on results in a different experience. One main problem is if one installs all the software that's afforded to the products it will cause conflicts. My best solution was to only install Control Center & not install the other apps. Other then that it's a great product & value.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were retiring our workhorse Savin and wanted something lighter, smaller and easier to set up. I ordered this for my husband and it was so easy to set up. The wi-fi let's us print from phones and any computer in the house. This model is lighter in structure than my commercial units, but he is retired and was sick of fighting withe bulky technology. He loves this unit. Scans and copies easily. Bypass feeder works well. Very happy. Great price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Brother in exchange for my honest opinion/review of the product. This printer is truly a little gem. It does not take us much space on my desk, but it does perform quickly and with good printer quality. When you are a busy business owner you do not want your printer to give you the dreaded PC Load Letter and this does not. The instructions are pretty simple, you do not even have to read the enclosed instructions. Although they are included in a quick start guide. You just plug it up and go! We love it and now it is our go-to printer for the business.

I had another brother printer that worked really well. So I went with this one expecting the same, but it is very hard and frustrating to connect for printing. I have to connect multiple times to get it to read to my mobile device. My other printer worked much more easily when it came to printing from other devices!

Great printer. My second Brother printer. Would not buy another Brand. This new one replaced one I had for many years. I had friend to help install and took about 10 -15 min including set up. You do not need to use the CD that came with it. I wished I had watched person installing so I could give you hints but suggest you call Brother if not sure. I set up on Ethernet instead of wireless as my computer/router very close. I can print from my iPad and iPhone easily by using WiFi but I keep my computer turned on when doing this. The duplex works great, it scans and copies well. I do not fax so cannot attest to that. Not had paper jam (and hardly ever on previous Brother printer). Using laser printer (black and white) saves so much money compared to using ink jets. I do not need color printer for my work.

Works great so far. Connects to all my computers and phone. Just follow the instructions that come with it. Easy to print and scan, as long as you have the right driver. A bit noisier than I expected. I don't have much use for Fax, but good to have this in case you need it.

I was replacing an older unit and first disappointment was no bonus printing cartridge in box. I then moved my old unit to another state where I occasionally work and when I came home discovered this unit can't do 2-sided scanning! What a joke - very disappointed and now will likely bring home my old unit. Can't return this unit no time and threw away all packaging. Product quality also WAY better on my 12 year old unit.

The printer itself works very well. My chief complaint is the inaccuracy of the installation instructions.. Nothing worked and even though I called support, the info they gave was also inaccurate. After several hours and attempts, I was finally able to figure it out.
