I purchased this printer a week ago and have been very pleased it's performance for the money. It's not a printer you'll want to use for your photo printing but everything else is great. I purchased it after looking at Cannon, HP and Lexmark printers. HP (7210)was the only printer with a network card but it cost $269 and does the same things this printer does.It was easy to set up on the network and I can now access it from all three of my computers as if it's connected directly. While you can hook most printers to a printer server on your network, most only work in an omni directional mode and won't allow you to see ink levels, etc. The fax and copy features also worked great and I've had no connection problems. Yes, it's a little flimsy, but it less than half the cost of an HP and it's got a network card.Overall, I'm very pleased with the printer and would buy one again. Amazon as always was great to work with and delivered the printer when they said they would with no tax or shipping.

Well I've only used this printer for one day and so far I've been pretty impressed. the copying was a little off but I'm really only using it for school papers and stuff and some occasional photo printing but nothing MAJOR. It's a great deal for a college student too pricewise. i'll never get another hp printer again!

My wife purchased this device for our business office in Feb of 2005. My first thoughts were very good, as we have had Brother printing / faxing devices all along and had years of reliable affordable service from them. This model did it all, it faxed, it scanned,it copied , it printed , there is a phone and it even hooked up to our network ! Delight soon turned to dread as the MFC 5440cn did none of these things well ( maybe this is not completely fair as I don't believe we ever scanned anything ). This unit has the most flimsy paper tray I've ever seen , highly proned to paper jams , the ink is expensive, very slow printing , always beeping because of an often un-determined problem and I've had more problems faxing and recieving a fax than ever. It does look nice, but my in business it must be dependable . Maybe this multi functional unit is better off in home use . I've relieved this unit of it's duties and TRASHED IT. Now the miserty of "will it work" is over. I don't know what we'll buy next but it won't be another MFC 5440cn.

Excellent little portable home or office do-it-all. Very compact and light for a machine of this type. Fairly easy instructions to get set up. Copy and Fax functions simple and straightforward. Can't comment on photo capture feature since I don't have a digital camera; card slot feature in front and instructions will help when you're ready. Scan feature something of a mystery to me; my first attempts didn't have the results I expected, but with practice I'm sure this will change, since I've never had this feature on previous machines. Only negative thing (to me, that is) is that the colors seem a little flat but they are color, no doubt about it. Great for start-up home businesses or extended biz trips. When you compare the cost vs. features, and cost vs. other sellers, it's a big winner in my book!

Bit of a short review. I must disagree with negativity surrounding wasted ink. I do alot of color printing.. and nothing annoys me more than a cartridge that doesn't allow room for refilling that cartridge. It's a waste of time and a mess. Lexmark and now especially HP's newest cartridges do this. #56 and #57 don't even last the lifetime. They are so bad they die before I can refill it. Caused many a thrown object. I hate the 1200 and 1350 PSC from HP so much , I'm tossing the brand new 1350 out the window when I get a brother. I'm reviewing moms. I'm so jealous of moms I'm getting one. HP sent me the 1350 after the 1200 busted it's guts inside. By the time it was sent, both the printer gears and scanner gears were broken. Never again HP. The brother's are simply the best way to go if you refill ink. Which is far cheaper than buying Brother cartridges outright. 123inkjets dot com sell these custom carts that are even easier to refill than refilling the brother cartridges. No drilling of holes to speak of. The brother cartridges I simply adore. Very similar to the CFS (continuous flow systems) I've been seeing for certain Epson printers. And with a fax machine attached to it. ... Why would one go anywhere else. Maybe the Canon, but avoid HP and Lexmark. Unless your rich. And can afford the $25-40 cartridges. The brother printers are a refillers dream.The only possible downside is paper jams. But I can take a paper jam any day compared to bad ink cartridges.

This printer prompted me to write my first Amazon review. As other reviewers have also pointed out, the printer uses ink continuously even if no printing occurs through its "cleaning" process. Furthermore, even if you only require b&w printing, all four colors must read full. I receive only a few faxes and print 20-30 pages a year. After one year and less than 50 pages, all ink has "evaporated." That works out to nearly $2 per page and replacement ink prices mean that it would continue to be about $2 per page for the life of the printer. However, I'm kicking the habit and throwing it out.Brother's crack cocaine marketing strategy hooks you with a cheap printer that is designed to drink ink and then sells you ink fixes to keep you going.Don't buy 210c! Don't buy Brother! Say no to crack!

Don't waste your precious time and money on any brother products.I did - learn from my mistake. Purchased a Borther MFC from staples. In 13 months, the printerhead malfunctioned. Called Brother to see course of action - said nothing I can do. Further research revealled that Brother new of defective printer heads but hid it from public. Called Brother again with this information - they said they would pay for the new printer head if I take it to an authorized Brother dealer. Wasted fuel to drive to an authorized dealer - 8 weeks later, with the new printer head installed - the dealer adviced that other error codes in the machine would not make the printer work. The auhorized dealer now no longer repairs Brothers due to very poor customer service. Even the dealer told me that the printer requires replacing not fixing but Brother told me to take it to another authorized dealer.Don't waste your time get a Canon MP780 instead

[...] The scanner works great, the printing works great too, good photo printing even on plain paper! Card reader works, I use it with my Lexar/Olympus 512mb, Kodak 32mb, and Fujifilm 16mb xD-picture card that came with my E510 Digital Camera. This is my second All-in-one printer. The first one (MFC-7300C) I bought it around Christmas of 01'. It was slow, and I would get paper jams, and ink errors all the time.. But this AIO has a flatbed scanner, dual paper trays, media card reader etc. At first I had a hard time putting in the ink, finally (small framed me) got my mom to do it, because she is bigger and stronger than me. I haven't tried out the networking function yet. But like the MFC-7300C the new MFC-5840CN has some problems too, besides ink installing problems, coping is kinda on the slow side, no cables come with the printer like the USB or Ethernet cable, [...] Sometime the scanner functions stops working and I'll have to un-plug and re-plug the printer to get the printer working right again, this has happen 3 times already, I still can't get why this happens? Don't know if this is only happening to me or not? And as a matter of fact, when you run out of ink in one ink cartridge, like the black for instants, the printer won't work until you'll replaces the one emtpy cartridge. kinda dumb huh? I didn't have this problem with my old Xerox printer. I still recommend this cheap AIO printer, because it everything you want in a AIO, and more! There is a even a cheaper model(MFC-5440CN), this model doesn't have the media card reader, nor, does it have the etxra paper tray, but it has everything else the 5840CN have...Pros:Networking, media card reader, dual paper trays, fast printing and scanning, good photo prints even on plain paper.Cons:Slow coping, no color LCD, problems with installing ink, No USB or Ethernet cable included, for some reason the scanner function stops working, have un-plug and re-plug in the printer to get it working again, when one ink cartridge runs out, you aren't able to print anything until you replaces the empty cartridge..Recommended: Yes

I purchased this to replace my MFC420CN. It works pretty much the same way and uses the same ink. My MFC420CN lasted only one year and three months. The printhead belt came off the sprockets and I had to open the machine to put it back. Unfortunately the black ink stopped working afterwards. I hope the belt does not come loose on this printer.

My company has three of these printers. Everyone seems to be happy with them, and we haven't had any real problems. Not for heavy duty, but fine for moderate personal use.

For $100 (after rebate), this device seems tough to beat. First of all, it definitely works as advertised. We have a small wireless network set up at our house that includes a Mac running OS X Tiger and a PC running Windows XP. Set up was a breeze. It was literally as simple as plugging the device into the ethernet router, installing the software on both machines, and within minutes i had both computers printing and scanning. I assume the USB set up is as easy if not easier. Some people seem to complain about Brother's support, but I haven't had a need for it yet - so I can't comment on that.I was looking for an all in one device (mostly for printing and scanning) and chose this device after reading many reviews about its capabilities and its compatability with both Macs and Windows. My primary goal was to find a scanner that would allow me to archive the ever growing mountains of paper that seem to clutter our home. And this machine handles that task with ease. The auto document feeder is a MUCH more efficient way to scan multiple sheets at a time, while the flat bed allows for some versatility when scanning odd shaped or bounded documents. And the OCR software included is amazing (haven't tried on the PC yet, but works great on the Mac). Combined with Tiger's 'spotlight' feature, it makes searching for the scanned OCR document a breeze.Anyway, i would highly recommend this to anyone using Mac OS X or Windows XP - especially if you are looking for an easy way for multiple computers to print/scan from one device.

This printer wastes ink and shuts down when ink runs low. You can't even send a fax if you run out of one of the inks. Also, mine shows that the ink is empty when there is actually ink left.I recommend a printer from a vendor that is working to help you and your business, noe one that *seems* to be focused on getting you to buy un-needed ink.You can, however, put black electrical tape over part of the cartridge to continue printing and faxing when it claims ink cartridges are empty.

For cost/benefit, I've been impressed with all the Brothers I've bought, both those for home (5050 B&W Laser and the multifunction 420CN). I also own 2 additional 5050s at my office and have had no problem with them. Suffice it to say that I've had precisely the opposite experience with HPs, with major, irreparable breakdowns in within 6 months of warranty expiration on each one. Plus, Brother has a neat philosophy of common sense cartridge replacement - if your color HP cartridge runs out, you have to replace the whole thing for $50 or so right then. Brother, on the other hand, allows you to replace individual color cartridges (black, cyan, yellow, red) as they run out, for $10 to $15 apiece. Lots of savings. My Brother B&W lasers were cheaper than equivalent quality competing brands, so I wasn't expecting much, but they've been basically flawless for 2+ years now and exceeded the rating on the toner cartridge by hundreds of pages.

This printer seems great at first, but will annoy you to death in the long term. The main issues are:1) -NOTHING- on the printer works once the printer is out of ink. You can't send faxes, scan, or print B+W if any one of the ink colors is out.2) The printer believes ink cartridges are empty long before they are. I have just removed a yellow cartridge with at least 1/3 of the ink left which the printer refuses to use.3) The printer uses LOTS of ink to clean itself several times a day.4) Print quality degrades over time- look for choppy/streaky blacks in the first 6 months.5) Network support is completely undocumented and poorly supported.6) Technical support, even web-based, is horrible and useless.Do not buy this printer.

I have a small CPA office. I bought one HL-5140 in January and another one last week. The first one died yesterday with a broken part; the second one died today after printing one page at a time. Brother HQ apologized several times and offered to send me a reconditioned printer--for the one I just bought last week.I knew the printers were disposable and that printer repair places will not work on Brother printers. But I did not expect the printer to die after a week.Luckily Best Buy is across the street so I bought two Lexmarks. I hope they will last until April 15!

I am really impressed with the MFC-5440CN. I have used network printer devices of various types. This is the first time I have seen one that every feature is available to all network users. Fax, scan, print, all work just like it was directly attached. Set up was dead simple, no problems on any of the 5 different machines I installed the software on. Working both on wired and wireless devices. Since the cheapest printer server boxes are around $35 for a single port and don't support scanning, this is a really good deal.Print quality is more than acceptable considering the low page cost. Black is good enough for business coorespondence, color is excellent for graphics and OK for photo. If you need super quality, you need something with 6 or more color tanks. This one is just for everyday printing and does the job.At this price point, you can buy one and use it for 20,000 pages which is when the print head goes. Cost to replace the print head runs around $100 at the local brother service place. Just throw it away and buy another new printer.Great for a small office or home network!!!

Just like many of the other reviewers said, this machine was designed to syphon ink (and money) even if you are not using it. It supposedly cleans itself every so often (using some of the ink to do so). Even though I never used the color ink, it kept beeping and indicating empty color ink cartridges and will not print even in black until you replace those cartridges.This is one of the worst machines that you can buy and I am sure that the company has heard many complaints about it, but they seem to have one thing on their mind and that is to rip you off by designing such an ink waster even when the machine is not in use.I gave it a one star rating only because the choices did not have a zero star which is definitely what it deserves.

I PURCHASED THIS FAX FOR $99.99 WITH A $40.00 REBATE.THIS UNIT CAN FAX AND PRINT IN COLOR AND BLACK. THE PRINT IS VERY CLEAR.I CONNECTED THIS UNIT TO MY PC WITH A USB 2.0 CABLE,IT CAN'T BE OVER 6' LONG .THIS IS A PLUS BECAUSE YOU CAN PRINT FROM YOUR PC.IT HAS A 300 PAGE MEMORY AND 10 ONE BUTTON INSTANCE PHONE NUMBERS CONNECTOR.THERE ARE 4 INKJET CARTRIDGES WHICH IS GREAT BECAUSE YOU CAN REPLACE THE COLOR THAT IS NEEDED.THE SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD IS VERY SLOW FROM THE WEB SITE ONLY.I HAD TO TRY 4 TIMES BEFORE I GOT THE PRINTER AND FAX SOFTWARE.I RECOMMEND THIS FAX OVER A TONER FAX ANY DAY. IT HAS A QUICK SETUP AND A LARGE OWNER MANUEL TO EXPLAIN ALL THE FEATURES.THIS MACHINE REALLY LOOKS NICE AND EXPENSIVE.IT IS A GREAT BUY AND THE $40.00 REBATE IS A PLUS.

a defective machine that failed to fun ction al all-the company gave me directions to pursue that we're impossible to follow -the only bright part ofthis deal is that Amazon took back the machine without conflict ot hesitation - full postage paid and full refund.Additionaally the machine itself was "tinny",insubstattial and cheap appearing.I bought a Canon for about thr dsme price at Best Buy-worked beautifully fron the get go-and appears a well designed and substantial machine - has some substance to it,Thanks Amazon for trying but I would advise you to drop the line, D Macdonald

Good printer if you print a LOT. If used occasionally, it's very hi cost per page because you will replace all cartridges frequently regardless of how much you've used it. But since the ink cartridges are only reservoirs (no electronics), I resorted to refilling them with bulk ink, which worked for about 4 refills. Then, the print head clogged up and I couldn't get it cleaned out. Had to junk the printer after one year of use.

I purchased this printer about 6 months ago. Overall it is a decent printer. The black and white and color prints are good quality. The copier and fax work well, no problems. The sheet feeders is OK but what do you expect at this price. However one thing really ticks me off and is the requirement of the printer that you can not have any empty color carts. If any of the color carts are empty then you can not print at all even if it is only black and white. I have never owned a print that worked like that. I think that the printer failing to print black and white just because my yellow cart is out is crap. Even though I think it works well as a printer these little nickle and dime operations to bleed me for more of my money drive me towards other printer brands.

The printer doesn't work when one of the inks is empty. This is ridiculous considering that for an average user this situation could happen every month. The product is practically unusable. Do not recommend for home or small office use.

NEVER EVER BUY THIS PRODUCT. I concur with all negative reviews. The ink simply evaporates away even when you don't use it. Cost of ownership is extremely high. You have to buy all the 4 cartridge for it to work, even if you need only black one.I have trashed this product as you can buy a new printer with the cost of 4 cartridge replacement for this stupid product.Brother company is simply giving this product for cheap to get continuous ink order, which is far more profitable for them.This machine will not take third party ink or refillable ink.stay away from it
