While it doesn't have a large footprint, it's fairly tall. This monochrome laser model feels amazingly well built and solid, with easy access to paper jams from the rear and a paper tray cassette that expands to accommodate different paper sizes. The best printer for students for black and white printing that we've tested is the Brother HL-L2390DW. Alternative With Supertank: Epson EcoTank ET-2760.All in all, it's a great all-in-one printer that should fit the needs of any student, and it's also one of the best printers with cheap ink that we've tested. Fortunately, colors have decent accuracy, which should be fine for normal use. The photos it prints look only okay, with washed-out blacks and plenty of grain throughout the photo. Unfortunately, it doesn't support Bluetooth, which might be inconvenient for some.

The connectivity options are great, including Wi-Fi Direct, Apple AirPrint, and Mopria Print Service, and you can use the companion app to print, scan, and copy from your phone. The scanning features are great, including a flatbed with an outstanding scan resolution and an automatic document feeder for multi-page documents. It warms up very quickly to print out the first page, and the overall printing speeds are great. The build quality is great, with easy access to paper jams.

It means you'll rarely need to replace the cartridges, even if you print often.

Like its predecessor, it uses the INKvestment Tank, a hybrid cartridge–tank system, for excellent page yields at an outstandingly low cost-per-print. This model is the replacement for the Brother MFC-J805DW INKvestment Tank. The best printer for college students that we've tested is the Brother MFC-J4335DW.
