3 out of 5 stars First one wouldnt print black   August 23, 2010
Gina Gray (Prunedale, CA United States)
Got one from costco. Test page wouldn't print black, so called CS & was sent a new one (they needed a credit card to send you a second one, no charges have appeared as long as you send them the old one within 3 days of getting the new one).
Anyway, the new one is working fine so far. Seems to be an OK printer, if you can deal with the hassle of possibly getting a printer with issues. Do like the print quality, cost for cartridges.



1 out of 5 stars ZERO stars for ZERO customer service!   July 30, 2010
Isuzan (Midwest)
Well, give it up for another company that sent it's customer service people jobs overseas - they can only read from a script and nothing else. I purchased this printer at Staples yesterday; got a great deal on it (SO I THOUGHT) 'cause they were clearancing them out for the newer model. I even looked at Amazon reviews prior to purchasing it. Some were so stellar I thought, "Hey, I have to give this a try!" but the bad ones really made me nervous. Guess I should've gone with my gut.

I happily unpacked it today, put the cartridges in, and it printed out a perfect page. HOORAY! NOT SO FAST THERE 'PARDNER...I shouted in jubilation far too quickly. Immediately it went into convulsions (that machine gun sound) and gave me the dreaded error, "Unable to Init. AF". I went through all the troubleshooting online and called their "Customer service" center (and I use this term loosely). He said it definately needed to be replaced, and would be happy to assist.

He said that he'd need a credit card to put a $50 hold on my credit card "In case the original machine is not returned". WHAT? I said, "I don't have a credit card". My only other two options were to take it to service center (this thing is HEAVY...I should not have to lug it an hour away to get it repaired - oh, and wait at least a week); or I could pay to insure it and send it back to Brother at my OWN EXPENSE.

After hours of this nonsense (trying to get a non-working new printer to work) and dealing with non-English speaking individuals who don't understand the nuances of the English language, I'm perturbed and will NEVER recommend or purchase a Brother product again. I will find someone who can give me a credit card so this can be exchanged and be done with it; but will spread the word that this company is awful to do business with - and that this product should be avoided at all costs. Hopefully the replacement works; I'll update this later if it does not.

I purchased one other Brother printer this year - through Amazon, and had to send it back as it also have untold errors. Does Mickey Mouse put these things together?

Is there a number less than ZERO I could give this manufacturer and product? Sure wish there was!



5 out of 5 stars Love this all in one / Great preformance, low operating cost.   July 26, 2010
Lance L. Scheafnocker
I am very impressed at the longevity of the ink cartridges of this machine, bought this at the end of April this year have run off at least 200 plus copy's and have not had to replace the ink cartridges yet. On my Lexmark 7100 I would have done a replacement twice by now. What a difference and a pleasure to have this machine it has almost paid for itself just in a few months and I have years of warranty left and I bought two sets of ink replacements with it. I am probably set for at least the rest of this year and maybe to the anniversary of me buying it next year, it was easy to set up, its easy to use and best of all my wife likes it and has told me thank you for buying it; and after 25yrs of marriage I did something right thanks "Brother" you made it possible.
Its is worth every penny you pay for it. Thanks Amazon for bringing us these high quality products and the extended warranty's that are offered it really makes the purchases a even better deal.



1 out of 5 stars Very user unfriendly   June 11, 2010

2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I setup this printer yesterday in my lab. I was very surprised at first that there was no mention of where the network cable needs to be inserted. Basically you have to open the printer first. I have no idea why they decided to make it so complicated. Setting the printer up is overall a bit of a pain. For some reasons there is no web server working on it, though port 80 seems to be open. The little menu is very counterintuitive as it is not clear what you have to do to go back through the menus. The last straw came today when the printer refused to work, giving the only message "unable to print 30". There is no clue given about what this means and about what to do. Reading on the internet, it seems something might have got stuck. Not bad since we printed something like 5 pages before this happened. But what really angers me is that there is no explanation given for the error, just a useless number. The printer is clearly not thought with the user in mind. Be prepared to waste a lot of your time. I hope my lab will be able to return it.

I got the printer and it was easy to set up on our three computers. I love the 11 x 17 printing. The only problem I have had is that under the normal quality setting, black is more a very dark grey. Under the fine quality setting, the black is black. I order remanufactured cartridges from [...] for about $2.50 each. It is a big printer but it is a great printer.
