Canon is better than HP for sure, but not as reliable, compatible, or unobtrusive as Brother. I bought a higher-end Canon photo printer that just would not work well outside of Windows, and my main drivers are Linux and Android. Brother has never failed me there.
I spent way longer than I ever hoped to primarily selling printers. This is the answer. I’d wager a solid 80% of people would be better off buying a cheap brother laser and just going to walgreens/office depot/where ever the 2 times a year they need to print in color
And it’s still more expensive than a brother printer after a year and a half, and one of those will last decades.
I’m 2.5y into testing that claim, with a MFC-J6930DW. So far, no issues at all.
I have a brother color laser, only had to change toner. My mom has a brother laser, haven’t changed toner. These things run like trucks.
I’ve deployed half a dozen in the last dozen years. All still going.
Brother FTW 🐐
Canon tho!
