5 out of 5 stars Excellent for Small Businesses   August 30, 2008
Ground Zero Museum Workshop (New York City)
I have read some unfair reviews on this machine. I say unfair because I love it. I own a 9/11 Museum in Manhattan and just purchased this. It make copies very fast, has a paper feed table that is unbreakable because of the crutch that was ingeniously created below it (our last one broke) and we have faxed up to 30 page docs for billing at a time without the machine getting jammed. So, I don't know what all the fuss is, unless you have a large business that demands major copy machine output. It is a good machine for the money and we have no problems with it. -GMS www.GroundZeroMuseum.com New York City


4 out of 5 stars Big but loaded with features   August 24, 2008
Gordon Ewasiuk (Washington, DC)
Out of the box, this printer is big. Be prepared to give it some space. Physical setup is a breeze. Phone, power, printer, and network cables all plug into the back of the unit. Power button is on the right side. Paper tray reloads from the front of the unit. br / br /Having a laser printer that connects to a network is a joy. I can roam around my home with my wireless laptop and send stuff to the printer all day long. No more USB cables connecting to the printer. No more parallel cables. The printer can be configured and managed using a built-in web-interface too. If you can use a web-browser, you can use this printer. br / br /Printing itself is fast and clean. Specs say up to 21ppm. I've achieved around 18ppm when printing straight text. Printer comes with a 250sheet tray. An additional 250sheet tray can be added. br / br /Scanning is just neat. This printer supports a "scan to FTP" feature too that lets me scan my old documents and get them sent to my computer. I've scanned old bills, tax records, and other documents that have been sitting around in file cabinets for months...even years. Having them in an electronic format is convenient for many reasons but primarily because now, they can be searched/indexed quickly. No more flipping through old bank statements or invoices. br / br /Copying documents is pretty fast too. Printer just scans in the original and prints out copies so process is pretty fast. Specs say 21copies per min. Not your office copier speed but still. br / br /The fax machine is your typical fax machine with the usual features -- lots of speed dials on this unit. br / br /I put this unit to work when I had to submit a bunch of expense reports. The copier made copies of all my receipts. The scanner read in my expense report and saved a copy on my computer. The fax machine was used to send in all the reports...and I received fax confirmations using the laser printer when everything was done. br / br /A brilliant printer. New toner carts are can be had for under $100 too. Go price comparable carts for HP and Lexmark. (My last Lexmark E232 cart was $179). br / br /This is my first Brother unit...but it won't be my last. Highly recommend. br /


4 out of 5 stars Great Home Office Multi Function Machine   May 31, 2008
Keith Barrand (Ridgewood, NJ United States)
I love this machine. Works great networked with both my PC's and my Mac. Printed 50 copies of a document in the same amount of time that my inkjet would have taken to print 3. Crisp text. Came with a starter cartridge that I've been using for 2 months now. Only flaw - it crinkles envelopes a little when printing them.


4 out of 5 stars Good machine so far...   April 20, 2008

I bought this machine specifically to print on envelopes and checks. It is the only laser all-in-one that has a multi-purpose tray at a good price. I was concerned that the snake paper path would not print well on envelopes, but there does not seem to be a unit with a nice straight-through paper path like my old HP 5Mp. br / br /When I ran my first envelope, I was disappointed at the creases in it, so I visited the Brother web site and followed the extensive how-to. There are a couple of levers in the back of the machine you must flip and then using the network setup (control center 2) you set the MP tray to thick. Then let the machine crank through your stack of envelopes. br / br /I just printed 200 heavyweight envelopes with NO creases. So it pays to read the tech support. The page goes on to state that if you are getting creased envelopes, you may need to be sent a new machine. br / br /One problem I did encounter was a loss of communication (I'm using my MFC over an Ethernet connection), but cycling power brought it back on-line. Will tell you more as time goes on. br / br /*** So here's the update. Still printing/faxing/scanning/copying just great. The network problem was that sleep mode was turned on. So I turned it off. Find sleep timer in the menu and then with the cursor on sleep time press the 'Secure' and 'Job Cancel' buttons at the same time. Then turn sleep off. And guess what? The machine goes 'idle' instead of 'sleeping'. It doesn't use any more power in 'idle' over 'sleep' according to tech support.
