It's a good printer with issues
I bought the 3780 and I really wanted to like this printer. Super excited to buy it and initial set up was really easy. I am a Mac osx household. All mac's recognized the machine without issues.
This is not a laser printer, it is in fact an LED printer. I was aware of this before I purchased it, and it was a deciding factor. Less moving parts in an LED printer and I figured it would have a longer life span
The black text printing was incredible, crisp, sharp.
Printer isn't loud (other than the 1st time I started it)
There is a 15-30 second delay before it prints, but wasn't an issue for me
I never tried the fax, so no comment.
Photos are okay
Why the 3 stars?
I could not adjust the resolution of the print. It was stuck at 600 DPI.
None of my printing software could increase the quality to get a better print
I searched and searched but could find no way to change the resolution.
I just found the pictures somewhat grainy
Brother customer service is non existent. Nobody to call or to reach out to. Brother goes out of their way to ensure you can't call them. When I finally did get a hold of someone they wanted me to send in photos of prints, when all I needed was to know how I can increase the resolution. On my old epson eco-tank under "Media and Quality" I could select different resolution types, but non with Brother.
It is being returned because after 2 weeks of use, I started getting two white crease marks in the centre page. Mine might just be a lemon.
How to get to 5 stars? Easy
- Hire a customer support team
- Revamp the software to allow user to select the resolution
- Improve the model to accept photo paper (current model doesn't accep and can't do photos)

not worth the money
We have had brother laser printers in our small business for years, recently our MFC decided to quit working. It was less money to buy a new one then replace everything again on a 6 year old printer. This is the newest version what we had. I wish we had never bought it! The toner cartridges do not last even 1/4 as long as its predecessor and now we can not use it as it comes up with a drum error with all the drums being at 38%.
The consumables are just ridiculous in price and like I said do not last at all. If I could return it I would. If you don't plan on using the printer its the printer for you. Less than a year of use 12,000 pages and it is useless. I WILL NOT BE REPLACING IT WITH ANOTHER BROTHER THAT IS FOR SURE!

Great printer!
I've had a monochrome printer and this is my first colour laser from Brother. The printer is fast, the colour is excellent. It was easy to install and the printer works great wirelessly.
