Incredible Bargain January 2, 2009 Grant R. Gulovsen (Galesburg, IL United States) Printer arrived today. Setup in less than 15 minutes. B&W print & copy quality is outstanding. Envelopes feed smoothly and print much better than my old Samsung SCX-4100 (which this printer replaced). For this price, the number of features and level of quality justifies five stars. Cannot say enough good things about this MFP. Make sure to get it with the auto document feeder. In response to one of the other reviewers, I typically purchase OEM toners anyway, so the fact that this machine may not accept knock-off toner cartridges does not bother me (and certainly does not seem like a legitimate reason by itself to give this excellent machine only one star).
Forget Brother October 7, 2008 Mitchman (New York, NY) 2 out of 10 found this review helpful
Do not under any circumstances buy a Brother printer. They rig the machine so that it will accept no generic toners. You use a brother toner or the machine won't work. Amazing!
Great Printer, Excellent Value July 2, 2008 Christopher Ireland (Sacramento, CA) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Pros: Very fast print speed, auto document feeder, quiet, works great with Mac OSX Leopard, Vista compatible, separate (and cost effective) drum and toner cartridges, low price. Cons: None, especially at this price. I have this printer connected to my Apple Airport Extreme Gigabit base station and it works like a charm for printing from all of my Windows and Mac machines. Brother has made it extremely easy to install the drivers (and they've even already updated themselves on the Mac), so the entire setup was under 5 minutes. I love the fact that I can also use this printer as a standalone photocopier--and cheaply since it's a laser printer. Of course, network scanning would be a plus, but that's not the printer's fault. If I need to scan docs or pictures (rarely would I) then I can just connect it directly to my Mac and use it from there. But 99.9% of the time, I just print documents over the network and make photocopies. Great printer!
