I would recommend this printer to everyone. With the phone all-in-one idea, no space has to be allocated for a seperate phone which would even further clutter up a workspace. The printer is fast. The ink compartment is ideally placed for easy swap-out of cartridges. The paper tray with the cover on it, has to be pulled out so far and then does not hold a large quantity of paper. Also, if you subscribe to a distinctive ring package through your phone provider, cancel it. With this printer, it conflicts and offers it's own ring package. NIOCE Save me $4 a month on my phone bill!! Nice going Brother.

A money pit is right! This printer just isn't worth it. There were at least 3 times where I bought ink and even though I only used the printer 3 or 4 times over the course of 4 or 5 months, the ink was gone and I'd have to buy refills again! It appears the ink must be allowed to evaporate somehow, and furthermore if you run out of one color the whole printer is useless until you refil it! Regardless of whether you're printing in B&W!Don't waste your money on this; there are much better printers out there.

Bought this printer this weekend without much research, for $80 - figured you can't go too wrong for the price, so bought it. The unit is very well built and attractive. Set-up was very simple and quick, had it unboxed and working with 3 computers on my network in around 30 minutes. I've never had that easy of an install - kudos to Brother. Haven't done much printing yet, but the few photos and docs I printed turned out very nice with decent speed. Also scanned a few photos to different computers on the wireless network. It would have been nice if they had included a USB cable and/or ethernet cable, but I had those around the house so no big deal. I am very pleased with this printer, especially for the price.

I got this for about 80 dollars and it worked well for a couple years but now it can't even read that there is a cartridge in it. I have used all Brother cartridges and I still have problems with it. I hate that it has 3 separate color cartridges. Ink is expensive. I was happy with it but now I just want to throw it out the window but I believe in recycling. I think I'll just stick to the Partner Stores at rieseninternationdotcom. They have over 700 Partner Stores such as Circuit City, Office Depot, Shop, etc and they give incentives if you go through them. They also carry exclusive products as well.

I purchased the Brother MFC-440cn with high hopes after reading several positive reviews. Unfortunately, I have been extremely disappointed with the purchase.The print quality is only mediocre, even on the "best" settings. The paper handling is awkward and inefficient. The default print settings are nearly impossible to locate and change. Most disappointing of all is the fact that the printer makes it nearly impossible to duplex print. It provides no support or assistance for manual duplexing and because the tray is awkward and hard to get to, it is more trouble than it is worth.I tried to write Brother to get help with some of the problems I have had with the printer only to discover that the customer service is atrocious: rude, impersonal, and unhelpful.The printer isn't all bad: The networking is easy to set up and generally works well. There's a lot of features for what you pay; it's just too bad those features are so poorly executed.Don't make the same mistake I did. I was seduced by thinking I was getting a great value because of the wide feature set and low price. Unfortunately, the negatives far outweigh the positives, and this product is definitely not a "great value."I miss my super-cheap 5-year-old Canon printer. It was light years ahead of this machine.

This printer has caused me much aggravation. It worked ok for about a year. Now I am constantly getting errors. I was hoping this would last longer than a year. I would not recommend buying this printer.

I replaced a Lexmarck 1150 that was part of the deal I got on ShopNBC. The brother is the "No Contest" winner here. The Brother gives sharp clear prints. The copy function works without turning on the computer.the FAX works on your regular phone line, no dedicated line needed. I feel this was a great choice for quality and value. I don't know how many miles you get on the four ink cartridges as yet, but I have discovered that EFORCITY sells ink for this and other printers for a mere 3.99 a cartridge and they are not refils, but are new and compatable.With Free shipping from Amazon this printer is a best buy.

I have had this printer for about a month. I purchased it for its scanning and copying capabilities. Both functions have satisfied my expectations. Of course, the printing quality has also been great. The hide-away paper tray was a bonus. I installed this printer with a new Dell PC with a Vista operating system. I encountered no problems with the installation. The ink usage appears to be acceptable for my requirements. Third party ink prices for Brother printers are very reasonable. The combination of the ink usage efficiency and economical ink prices played heavily into my decision to purchase this printer.

I bought this to replace a noisy Lexmark printer which was supposed to have networking (it didn't).Setup was pretty easy, the only small issue was the manual was a version behind the installer software.I set up the printer as a network printer on 4 Windows PCs, no issues with the setup. Also no bloatware like on the HP's. Printed a few test documents, made a couple of copies. Did have one jam, but I may have put too much paper in. It doesn't hold much.This printer is much quieter than the HP and Lexmark MFP I had previously. Initial impression is good, I'll try to come back and do a long term update.

I bought this one and a Lexmark all-in-one at the same time. I hate Lexmark, or so I thought, so I assumed this was the keeper. However, I was wrong. Gripes:1)no multipage scanning into 1 document. I thought the Lexmark had the same problem since it didn't come preinstalled with a pdf output, but once I set it up to scan to acrobat pro, it could scan several pages and output them into a single file. Perfect. This Brother one wouldn't do it no matter how I tried. Each page is it's own pdf. Sort of defeats the document feeder principle if my hands have to do the work elsewhere. BIG PROBLEM.2)won't scan or fax or do ANYTHING else w/out the print cartridges installed. Sounds weird, but if it's a multi-function and one of the functions gives out, or isn't going to be used, the rest should still work.3)REALLY slow head-cleaning process. Won't let you do ANYTHING else while waiting for it. Can't scan, can't fax, must wait.4)bad software - whereas other scanners let you 'scan to application' and let you choose apps, this one has email, file, image and ocr as the only 4 choices.5)is very controlling in general, you don't get many customized choices at all.6)I think the ADF reverses the order of the pages you put it. Wouldn't be that annoying if you could put in more than 10. But if you're scanning a 30page doc and have to stop and manually reorder each of the 3 groups? That once again defeats the time-labor saving principle that anyone who wants a document feeder is going for.7)really noisy after buzz after a scan is done. Takes awhile to shut up.On the good side: ADF didn't seem to jam even with bent pages. Great price, although you get what you pay for. Easy to assemble, lots of features w/on-board card reader. Still, I'd rather have this scary Lexmark or my mom's HP we got her for Xmas than this. The HP software is WAY better, despite the fact I don't really like how babyfied it is. And the Lexmark software allows more flexibility as well. I'm a little disappointed in Brother on this particular model. I wonder if higher models have different software control panels?

Overall the printer is good, but the answering machine crashes twice a week.. I have to restart the whole printer and sometimes I lose a few messages. The CUPS drivers that came with Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy) didn't work, I had to install the cups wrapper and use the drivers from Brother's site. I can't get scanning/emailing documents to work in Ubuntu (I'm doing everything over the wireless network so maybe that's why). This is my first all-in-one printer so maybe I expected too much.Update: My printer ran out of magenta ink and now refuses to print at all (including grayscale). I'm disappointed because I only printed a couple of pages in color. I found out that every so often the printer uses up ink in a routine internal testing (to see if it still has ink)? And over time it used up that color. What a waste!

This is a great printer/fax/scanner/copier for the home or home office. The print quality is great, and everything was very simple to set up. The paper tray is relatively small, holding only 100 pages at a time. But you'd need to print a lot of pages for that to be a major concern. Outstanding all-in-one for the price!

First off, I'd just like to say that the review by G. Long "letranger66" below shouldn't even be here. It's a MFC-3820CN, NOT a MFC-5440CN; he should write the review for that product, not this one because the inkjet technology is TWO complete generation apart.The MFC-5440CN uses the latest cartridge design by brother, the LC-51 series, and the ink cartridges fit into a futuristic area on the southeast corner of the printer, completely apart from the actual print head. The printer then sucks the ink through a tubing system to the print head, so the cartridges are always stationary. The LC41 series is similar to the LC31 series of the MFC-3820CN this poor fellow had... DON'T buy any brother inkjets that use the LC-41 or LC-31 cartridge. I had the unfortunate experience of owning a MFC-3220C that used the LC-41 cartridge. The printer broke and was replaced some 6 times. The service depot said that the print heads used in these older printers were very very finicky and will clog up just like that if you use 3rd party inks, and in many cases, even it's own ink! Thankfully, it seems Brother has finally improved their print heads, also increasing their max print resolutions as well.Anyways... Back to this printer.It prints with decent quality, not the fastest and not the slowest either. But, it has the ease of use. I've yet to see any other network printer as easy to use as this one, and allow the full multifunction capabilities through the network.In addition, Brother has excellent drivers for both Windows and Macintosh, both of which run perfectly in my network with this printer (Yes! Brother's drivers are CUPS for Macs!!!). Software included for Windows is my favorite, Scansoft Paperport, which usually costs around 90 dollars retail. Software for mac though is a bit lacking, Presto pagemanager 4 is extremely dated and slow.In all, this printer won't disappoint for those of you that want a simple to use and setup printer, the installation wizard does everything for you. Ink cartridges are also decently priced and last around 3 months for our family (we print about 5 pages a day). I have been using 3rd party inks with this printer with no problems as well. Photo prints look decent as well, not the best, but passable for the casual printer.****One gigantic note though! When you're installing the drivers with windows based computer. DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE WHILE THE INSTALLER IS RUNNING!!!! For some strange reason, brother designed the installer to automatically click through those "windows has auto-detected a device" window and fill in the correct values for them. If you run the installer and are doing something else like browsing the internet like I did, the installer will not click on those buttons and the process will just freeze, forcing you to start from square one.

There may be faster machines that may have more features but I'd be hard pressed to find one in this price range! It's been great! I purchased it for a home network along with a wireless router because our kids received their own laptops for Christmas with wireless networking and I already had 2 computers, a PC and a Mac that existed on the network and this was a fairly straight foward process when following the easy to read instructions.We love it here. It prints fast (compared to others we've owned in the past) it faxes and scans quickly and is a snap to do a quick print from the camera memory card!Get one, you're gonna love it!

First of all, the black isn't black, even in the best mode. It's dark gray at best. With my old HP, black actually printed black. And I thought I was upgrading! Since I print more documents than pictures, this is important to me. Printing is also very slow. But the real deal-breaker is that the scanner doesn't work on my new iMac with Leopard. I chose this printer partly because it was to be compatible with Mac.I think I will be returning it. Just wish I knew what to replace it with.

The print quality of this product is pretty good. It did take some manual adjusting before it would print pictures without background lines. It's not as fast as I would like it to be without jeopardizing the print quality. Overall I am satisfied with the product but if given the opportunity to I would tweak a few things.

Don't buy this printer unless you want to keep replacing cartridges that are not empty when the printer says they are! I have had to buy and replace cartridges when there is considerable ink left in them, about 1/4 inch, hence, not empty! I made a report to the BBB, who contacted Brother and Brother contacted me by phone, twice. After lengthy dissertations and explanations, I think designed to tire me out, the second time they asked me what would make me happy and I told them to replace this machine or buy it back. It also was suggested by him that I might take it back to Staples where I bought it, now that's funny, since he read where I purchased it almost a year ago. The rep stated that it is necessary to keep "some" ink in the cartridges so the heads don't dry out. I also was told by the rep that this is how the inkjet machines function. When I asked why I can't even print in black when it is full, I was told that it has to do with "suction". The selling point on the box which I was attracted to was that you don't have to replace cartridges as often, as in the tricolor printers, saving me some money, I thought, and I told this to the Brother rep. Again, I'm no tech, but this printer was not sold at high end stores, it was sold at Staples, to the general public. He said it is in the owner's manual, hmmmm. I don't know anyone reading the owner's manual in the store before a purchase. I think we were duped and now we can buy Brother cartridges forever. But not me, I have drilled holes in those cartridges and bought generic ink and filled them up. I told the Brother rep, and he said maybe I could have a problem, and I said I already have one! I won't be buying any more Brother cartridges! I sold my HP printer when I bought the Brother, what a mistake! My complaint to the BBB stands, and I'll be looking for that new HP.

Great printer without all the bells and whistles that one doesn't often need. Does a good job with photos and documents, copies and scan to e-mail etc. A little slow, if that's an issue, receiving the info from the computer. The LCD screen is small and often hard to read unless you get close and would be better if it was lighted.All in all great printer for the price.

I highly recommend the MFC-8820DN instead of this model. It's about the same price and it includes automatic duplexing (that's the 'D' in the model #) and it includes a network interface (that's the 'N' in the model #). Definitely don't go for a 7xxx model. The 8xxx models use high capacity cartridges which means about seventy bucks for > 6000 pages instead of fifty bucks for about 2000 pages for the 7xxx models. Think about it. After just a couple toner cartridges you'll have paid for the better machine!I didn't buy mine on Amazon as they don't sell the MFC-8820DN. I don't know why - it's much better IMHO.

I imagine the people giving this product glowing reviews haven't run out of their first ink, or if they have, they had spare ink all good to go. Listen up: if this printer is out of ANY ink the unit won't print. Even if you're out of yellow and you want to print in MONO, and set it to the MONOCHROME setting, it won't print AT ALL. Now that's just plain rude! This is just so great if you get caught short at midnight with a report to print. Puh-lease. I've had it - this thing is only three months old but off to the auction site it goes.

Just as expected. Scans flawlessly. Phone and answering system works great. Printouts and copies seem just fine. Wireless hookup was simple. In this day and age, for so many functions to work so easily, so quickly, without fuss is rare. Too many manufactures come up with great ideas, which are fundamentally flawed once you try using them, but this unit meets all expectations. The small size is a plus as well. I usually find at least something to complain about with any product, but nothing stands out here. The icing on the cake? The price - under $200. Simply exceptional. Let's hope it stands the test of time.

W O W....I just set up my Brother MFC-465CN All-In-One printer and it was a snap. The Quick Setup Guide must have been written by someone that has gone through the nightmare of setting up computers, TV's, stereo components, answering machines and all other electrical gadgets that come with truly non user friendly manuals. If you can read you can set this machine up without pulling out a single hair. For the price the quality is Ok though I was disappointed that it comes without a USB cable.
