Yes, the Brotherdidprint color, but the quality of the inkjet printer was just far superior.
The colors were richer, the glossiness stayed intact, and it was just overall a better end result.
But, thats not the key focus here.

It was easy for her to find the prints from the Brother.
They were more vibrant, crisp, and better in every way.
Except for the photo department.

But, when it comes to photos, laser is just no match for inkjet.
In normal full-color prints (like thank you cards, flashcards, etc.)
it does a superb job.

And, for the occasional photo print, it does just fine.
28 seconds after the first sheet started coming out of the printer, the final one was complete.
The first 30 seconds or so was the job transferring from the computer and the printer processing it.

Setup Is Super Simple
Setup for the Brother HL-L3295CDW was nice and easy.
Whereas the standard tray is really only made for standard paper and card stock.
