3.0 out of 5 stars Great machine, except paper jams every time, December 15, 2008

By	B. May (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this machine under 2 weeks ago, and sadly I am going to need to return it, because I can't get it to not jam on paper. The only way I can print is to manually feed each piece of paper one by one. Otherwise, it grabs several papers at the same time, printing part of a sheet on one and part on others, and often jamming up. I have tried different types of papers, different weights, the different feeders, read the manuals and the troubleshooting, and it hasn't made a difference.
Otherwise, the machine seems great. I had trouble-free installation on 2 XP computers, the scan quality is great, the print quality is very good when you put it at the higher level, crisp blacks. I would like to be able to keep it, but I can't be expected to be my printer's page-feeder for every document.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent all-in-one, August 17, 2008

By	Fokionas Bisbikis (Princeton, NJ) - See all my reviews

I have owned this printer for a few months and have been very happy with it. It works very well with a mac, it's very easy to use and the printing quality is great. The scanner works well too and its really easy to scan or make photocopies. It's very compact and takes as little desk space as an all-in-one can take.

Especially for mac users, I think brother all-in-one's are the best ones.

4.0 out of 5 stars For the price it's not too bad, July 23, 2008

By	M. Zoma - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This Brother all-in-one is a replacement for my HP all-in-one (7310) and a HP Laser printer. The Brother is slower in initial printing (start-up) then my HP laser printer but once it gets going it's pretty quick (they say 23 pages per minute) but I think it's a little slower than that. It's quick in making copies and the quality of the print is good to excellent. For the price tag of $239.00 it's worth the price (HP has an all-in-one for about the same price). This Brother all-in-one was very easy to connect to my wireless home network (much easier and quicker than HP in that respect). The scan soft software that is included is OK, not the best but it's free and included. I gave this machine a 4 star (it's probably closer to a 3 star) but then I tend to be on the generous side when evaluating products.
