Pros: Great print quality. Your not going to rival ink jets on photo prints, but this is still a great print quality. Not quite print to edge, but pretty close. My drum came with a little gunk on the drum. Following brothers FAQ, I cleaned the part of the drum with a qtip and out came my little line! Took a little work, but for the price, and the print and features. I love it. Duplexing is WONDERFUL. This printer can be detected by windows explorer by navigating to the IP of the printer. Most cheap network printers won't do this. It did not auto server me the print driver for XP, but it cut my network install time down from 10 min to 1 min. And I still gotta do 10 more installs, so much faster.
Cons: From what I hear, a good number of these printers are shipping with little bits of adhesive on the drum. It's annoying, but a little qtip and some time make the printer more than worth it.
Other Thoughts: I have not had this printer for an long time, but so far, it's GREAT.

OH Brother

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: High quality construction. Direct print of PDF and photos from USB drive. Wireless is really nice, dont have more wires running about my office.
Cons: None really..
Other Thoughts: After about 100 pages of printing, the magenta toner started to leak and deposit excess toner on the edge of the paper. Contacted Newegg and they said they can only replace the entire product, not indivdual consumables, which what I expected. Next, I contacted Brother, waited about 15 minutes before speaking to TS. They couldn't help me and call was escelated. Brother will replace the cartridge, but I have to provide a serial number from the INSIDE of the printer (the one on the back isnt sufficent) and a 20 digit serial number on the toner. In addition, they want page counts from the printer, then they will send me a new cartridge. In the meantime, I can print, but its annoying to have the blobs show up. Overall, I would say its good tech support and I am pretty happy with my purchase.

Poor quality & TONER HOG
Reviewed By: Finance Mgr on 10/29/2009
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Lots of features
Cons: This printer is set up to help Brother make money on toner. It stops printing after the page count for your cartridge is reached. And all three color cartridges expire at the same time. I called Brother and they told me that even with B&W some color toner is used. I open one "empty" cartridge and it still had 50% of it's toner.
Other Thoughts: And the duplexing is not automatic. Each user needs to select it each time they print. I have been unable to make it a default setting.
