Brother MFC-J680DW All-in-One Color Inkjet Printer, Wireless Connectivity, Automatic Duplex Printing, Amazon Dash Replenishment Ready

Printer works well, easy set up, & it will run on an Asus router so in my opinion its a wonderful printer. It's also very economical as the ink doesn't cost a fortune.Some draw backs: the printer can be slow. It's not super fast but this doesn't bother me because I'm not in a rush with my printer needs. You have to pull the paper tray out completely to load paper or change the settings for photo paper. Again not a deal breaker for someone who doesn't mind doing this. Another issue that I could see is bother someone is that there are 4 ink cartridges. 3 color & one black. Even though there are many cartridges, they're easy to install & takes no time at all.I also want to say I use this printer daily as a student. I've had it for near a month & have not run out of ink. So I'm not sure how long the ink lasts. I've also printed multiple photos(20).All in all if you don't mind a slow but precise print, this is a very good printer. It was a breeze to install & it works on dual band which is a miracle because this is the 3rd printer I bought because none of the others would work on it.Brother is a top notch company & if you need any help, they are always there. I called them before purchasing this one to make sure it would work on Asus router.

The Brother MFC-J680DW wireless color printer is a compact all-in-one printer/scanner/copier. Installation was a breeze with the included instruction sheet and CD. Just follow the prompts and it will connect to your wifi and computer with ease. The only issue I found was that after installation and connection, my computer showed the printer as "offline", although it was powered on and connected to wifi. I went to Control Panel-->Devices and Printers, removed the Brother printer from the printer list, clicked Add A Printer, found it from the available list, and re-installed it. It showed back up and Online. I was also able to print directly from my iPhone using Airprint. If you don't have an Apple product, I believe there is an Android Brother app that allows you to print from a smart phone or tablet. I also experimented with the scanner and the Brother software that came with the printer. I tried an 8.5x11 inch photo. I used the highest resolution setting and got bands on the scan. I just kept dropping the resolution until the scan was clean (1200x1200 and 2400x2400 were good). Installation of the ink cartridges (I'm trying the XXL 2,500 sheet ones) was very easy via the front loading door. The printer is a little noisy, but nothing more than any other inkjet I have tried. The paper drawer only holds 100 sheets...I would have liked it to be a little bigger but it will work for home or small business use. The adjustable LED touch screen is large and helpful. So far I'm happy with the printer and like the quality build. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a inkjet all-in-one for home use.

Update: after little more than 3 years of modest use, it no longer finds a connection to my computer, and no longer scans.Original review: The printer quality, and speed of printing is adequate, considering this is a relatively inexpensive printer. Of course, they make their profit on expensive ink cartridges that need to be frequently replaced, as do most printer manufacturers. But especially annoying is the frequent need to open the ink cartridge compartment, eject and reinstall each cartridge, and do this many times in a row, to get the printer to work. On some occasions, this very time-consuming process determines that you need to replace one or more cartridges. However, it is inefficient and annoying, and often no cartridge needs to be replaced, the printer was just confused.

Great printer for the price. I have been using Canon PIXMA MX870 for last several years, but it stopped working just recently (I got an error message requesting a service, but this model was no longer serviceable by Canon). So, at first, I was planing on getting a newer version of that Canon (MX922), but later decided to see if there is something else I can use (Canon does have good quality printing and scanning, but it is very big and uses a lot of ink).I do not use printer on a daily bases, but I do want something with good quality printing and scanning; also I did not want pay more then $100 for the printer, there are to many choices for under $100 to do that. After reviewing several different models from several brands, I stopped on this model and, so far, do not regret it.The new Brother Work Smart line is very compact, but very capable. The printing is fast and good quality; scanning is pretty good too. I used a wireless setup (no USB cable) to keep more printing options (to printing straight from wireless devices). It was so easy to do; I just followed the instructions.The only issue I had so far is WIFI Direct option. All descriptions and reviews I have seen state this model (as well as most others Work Smart line models) support this function, but I can not find any instruction on how to setup this (not on Brother's website, not in the manuals provided).Also, I was not printing a lot so far (printed only a few pages), so I did not have to replace the sample ink cartridges that came with printer. Some people stated they had some issues with replacing cartridges; I can not say anything regarding that yet.
