4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good multipurpose device, April 25, 2007

By	GEEBEE - See all my reviews

I really like that it has a built in fax modem. That means it can function as a standalone fax machine/copier. you don't have to connect it to a PC to use it as a Fax machine.

Text quality is good. Photo quality is OK. Good enough for casual photo printing, but pros and advanced amateurs will want a dedicated photo printer.

Very easy to set up. Instructions are well written and easy to follow.

It comes with PaperPort SE with OCR and the device control program (Brother control Center 3)is very well designed and allows you to do all the things the device can do pretty easily.

I think the paper supply cartridge is poorly designed. It is too easy to accidentally change the size of paper that you are using and this can cause paper jams. I think this problem can be minimized with practice, but if you have a spouse who is a technophobe, it could be a point of frustration.

I just got it, so I can't confirm this, but the manual claims the black ink cartridge can produce up to 900 pages of text, assuming an average of 5% coverage. If this is anywhere close to true, this means it is one of the most economical ink jet printers on the market.

I paid $99 for this device, and for the money it is a remarkable value.

Update 8/18/2007 - I have resolved the paper cartridge issue. Apparently, I hadn't set up the cartridge properly, and that was the cause of the paperjams. However, while I can upgrade the unit for overall design, I must downgrade it for its owner's manual's poor description of the paper cartridge set-up. It's still a good product overall though. I still have no regrets buying it.

1.0 out of 5 stars If you get frustrated easily, DO NOT BUY THIS, February 8, 2007

By	D. Shaffer "Daisyoxoxo" (Naperville, IL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This printer prints just fine ... when you gan get the paper to load properly!! The paper tray is so poorly designed it's a complete nightmare! If you don't get frustrated by poor designs, then by all means give this one a go. But if you are at all like me, and expect your electronics to perform consistantly day after day... THEN STEER CLEAR OF THIS ONE!

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Printer Ever, December 17, 2007

By	M. Bailey "Megnog" (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Oh brother! Where to begin? This printer jams more than the Grateful Dead in the mid-nineties. It feels like every other time I print I have to clear a jam and then it have to turn it off to get it to reset, why does it say paper jam when there is no paper jam? Trying to print on anything other than 20lb stock...forget it, it confuses the printer. I am also surprised this printer is not built by Hummer the way it sucks down ink. I have a small business and this is the worst investment I made. I've only had it for three months and I had to have someone come out to fix it. The repair person just laughed at me and told me to get another printer. The printer has also stopped being able to take the paper without prodding and cursing, so it's always telling me there is no paper. Arghhh!The only good thing I can say is that the scan function does work. I highly recommend spending extra money on a better machine it will be cheaper in the end with the cost of ink.
