Brother MFC-J1010DW Wireless Color Inkjet All-in-One Printer with Mobile Device and Duplex Printing, Refresh Subscription and Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

Arrived on time and in good shape. Description says “starter” ink included, but digging around on Brother’s web site reveals that standard-fill cartridges come with this printer, and that’s what I received. Easy setup...except for the USB cord that was NOT included. I used the one from my old HP printer. It has a USB plug on one side to go to the computer and a squarish side that goes into the printer. Note, you have to open the printer to get at the printer port – pretty lame design. It’s easy, but I have no idea why they didn’t provide an external port. Anyway, they recommend using a cable of 6 feet or less, and routing the wire through the printer takes up almost 2 feet of that, so that leaves you with a printer no further than 4 feet from your PC, theoretically. I have mine 10 feet away using the standard cable and a USB extension cord, and it’s working fine, so far. (Also, instructions aren’t great on locating the USB port inside the machine – it’s simple once you find the video on YouTube; don’t sweat it.) Loading ink is easy. Software is downloadable only, like most things these days – no DVD/CD. But it went smoothly. They try to trap you into extra downloads at the end. In fact, from opening the box to every step along the way they try to trap you into letting them monitor your use and automatically sell you ink and more. You can opt out, but it’s not exactly intuitive. Just go through the install screens slowly after the initial printer/fax downloads. You may need to click cancel, or skip, or just close a window. Printed a color document. It made the usual racket that my old HP made getting itself ready, but this Brother was actually printing – by the time I thought it was going to start printing, it had finished printing. Nice! Four stars. Would have received 5 if it came with the USB cable.

I bought this in January 2022, I have tried to find replacement Black ink EVERYWHERE it is not available. I love BROTHER Printers but this is ridiculous.

This is a great printer so far, comes with ink and the Ink last for at least a few months if you dont print that much, the color quality is really good. Easy to connect to home wifi, printer doesnt come with USB cable but I didnt needed one. I love that i can use my phone or tablet to print from anywhere in my house and it has a fax and scanner. This is a really good printer with a great price.

Had a Brother printer for ever, amazing. Gave it away, got this one, now I can’t find ink for nothing. I am so behind with my work. What a disappointment!!!! Really want to just return it.

Waste of money! It doesn’t scan, spits out blank pages when I scan. The initial set up was a pain. I need to return this product and get my money back

Was searching for a new printer and wanted a BROTHER instead of what I have used for ages. This under $100 printer is perfect for me! In fact, I love it! Wireless, clear YouTube set up instructions, easy to set up, and is causing laziness in my life! I sit in my chair, with iPad in my lap and the J1010 prints. Who could have it so simple? I could not be more delighted by my purchase. Research your needs, wishes, and wants. This may be ideal for you! Hope so!

I replaced an HP printer with this dud from Brothers. It occupies much more space than my old HP. It prints OK, but to scan something requires a complicated, convoluted process that is terrible. Also, when I printed envelopes, each one has a noticeable crease in them. I wish SO MUCH that I had paid a few dollars more and got an HP replacement. The instructions that came with this machine had to do with installing it and nothing having to do with operating it. In sort, I HATE THIS PRINTER.

I had an old HP All-In-One printer that was always on the blink. So, I finally broke down and bought this one. I was looking for another all-in-one, relatively small, good price, and NOT an HP and this one checked all the boxes. I found the setup easy following the Quick Setup Guide. So far, I’ve only printed and made copies, and it works just fine. Quality is good. I haven’t tried the scanner or fax functions so I can’t speak for those yet. The wifi was easy to connect too and it works. The only con I would say, so far, is that I find it prints very loud but that’s not a big drawback for me. Overall, I’m very happy with my purchase.

This printer is loud, sounds like its chopping up stuff when pulling the paper in and when pushing it through while printing. None of my other brother printers in the past have done this & its definitely too loud to put at my work desk as it would disrupt my co-workers peace! Maybe is was banged around too much in shipping as they just slapped a shipping label on printer box and mailed out with no extra protection. Im contemplating returning this one!

Im not savvy so I rely on my sons to do the installations for me but when the printer/scanner was delivered, I was home alone, and I followed the installation instructions on the LCD screen on the printer and got my laptop and phone connected to the printer. So far, it prints well. I have used it for only a day but I trust it will be a good buy!
