What are your requirements? Brother printers work pretty well and are priced pretty cheap for black and white. But if you need a high number of pages printed per month, or super-duper print quality, you may need something else.

Happy with my Brother printer as well, reasonably priced and gets the job done.

Glad I found this thread. I got rid of my old HP inkjet printer last year thinking I could just go to FedEx store for printing if necessary but with COVID, I think I need a printer. Looking for something inexpensive and easy to set-up with my mac.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a Brother HL-L2360D, letter size only from the tray, legal size from single feed and the best part 2 sided printing.

Actually, I run an old Dell Dimension XP box with a RAID as a storage server and have it plugged in to that and shared on the network, so don't use the printer wifi. It's how my HP LaserJet 4L was set up so why change a good thing :) The HL-L2360DW was $89, the 4L (which I had a loooonnnnggggg time) toner cartridge was $79 which is why I bought the Brother. Really like the 2 sided printing, saves a lot of paper. I'm surprised at the cost of the Brother printers now.

I'll just add another vote for Brother. I have the HL-L2395DW that a previous person suggested, it was SUPER easy to add to my new MBP when I got it, all through the network.

Thanks, hallux! I was debating between HL-D2370DW and HL-L2395DW. Both looked good, but I eventually chose the former for its smaller footprint and the price ($109 at Staples after $20 discount).

Just an update. the HLL2370DW I bought at Staples arrived yesterday, and I set it up wirelessly today. It took a while but after restarting the router and computer I could print stuff wirelessly. I love the simplicity and size of the printer! The print quality is just fine. For the price ($109), I am satisfied so far. I don't think I can go back to inkjet now.
