I too suggest that anyone interested in this printer get it directly from Brother (same price) because Amazon's method of refurbishing apparently is lacking (lots of complaints in the reviews on Amazon).
A note in case anyone needs it: I picked this up directly from Brother as an official refurb from the last deal. The printer came with new starter toner & drum kit, so you're not rolling dice on how much someone else printer before returning.
I bought this model on May 31, 2016, and I'm still using it today. It's a great printer, and the cartridges are affordable too, especially through Amazon.
yeah i wanna say mine is 2019? solid.
cant say i print a ton as toner will dry out before i completely use it, but it does still work
I usually find one of these on FB marketplace for like $50. I got one recently and it's a great basic printer. The ADF feature is nice when scanning documents.
I have this printer, bought about 1.5 yrs ago for 200 on amazon. I have this set up as wireless. Over half the time it won't connect to the PC, especially after I lose power but other times not. The reason why I bought it in the first place was my canon printer was doing the same thing. Most of the time, unplugging it and then plugging it back in will reestablish the connection, but not always. You can always initiate the scan from the PC and it connects just fine, just not always the other way around.
I use it mainly for scanning. You can not duplex scan using the document feeder. You can do one sided scans from the feeder. You will have to do duplexes manually. Or do all one side then do the other and then use other software to rearrange the pages. Also the document feeder does not work with smaller width paper like store receipts.
It's also pretty tall. I have it in my laundry room on the counter with overhead cabinets. You cannot easily open the top to get to the glass where you put the document to be scanned. I have to scoot it to the edge so I can open it enough to slip the paper in.
Other than that it works well enough. Don't think I've had problems with printing from my PC. Seems to work well in that way but I don't print a lot. And I like that the toner always works unlike inkjet printers which dry out. After this toner cartridge is done I will probably look for a more scan friendly printer.
Does your router combine the 2.4ghz and 5ghz in the same name to connect? You could try plugging in a Cat6 to the router/switch.

I had the same issue with MFC-7860DW before i replaced my router. Now the printer connects every time. It wakes up correctly when needed.

A lot of the old models of printers like Brother and Epson are only on 2.4ghz. So if our house wifi is in duo-mode, it could cause a lot of issue. A lot of their troubleshooting steps is ask us to turn off the 5ghz mode

Most printers aren't great on Wi-Fi. Plan on connecting any printer via ethernet or USB for dependable connections.

I hate this printer. Won't stay connected to the wifi, even after going through the helpdesk. Even my phone has to connect to it through the Mopria app.
what is a better color AIO you guys suggest? I have brothers inkjet J4335DW. It was printing very light and a recent firmware fixed the issue, but I am thinking to upgrade.
Not a fan of Brother B&W printers. Had two. Problems with both, the printers crapped out after a few years. Customer service = 0 . I was blamed for the problems. Switched to Canon.
Does your router combine the 2.4ghz and 5ghz in the same name to connect? You could try plugging in a Cat6 to the router/switch.
Even with Cat6, I couldn't connect to the printer consistently. To work around this, I had to reboot the router, and the issue went away.
For Wi-Fi, I use mixed mode, but I decided to dedicate my guest network solely to 2.4 GHz. This should eliminate connection issues since home appliances and smart switches don't work well with mixed mode. I also bought a few inexpensive ASUS routers and set them up as 2.4 GHz access points, and this setup has been working out well too.

I wish my brother 2280dw would just die already because I'd like to get this since it has a paper feeder for scanning/copying. My 2280dw it's a tank going for on a decade just working without any issue. Never get any other printer brand except for Brother laser. My 2280 probably going to outlast me 😂
