Brother Fax 770

I’m a document specialist so I need a good quality copier and fax machine. I had no idea which one would be the best choice, so I ended up doing a little research online and plumped for the Brother Fax-770.

The machine has clear buttons which are well labeled, easy to understand and well laid out. I’m not really machine friendly, but this has been an exception as I had no difficulties in getting it to do what I want.

The 770 can broadcast fax up to a total of 47 locations, and because it has thermal line printing technology this enables it to offer great printing quality and no messy print outs (unlike my old fax). It’s able to produce 99 copies at a time, which is way above my needs, but it’s nice to know that if I had to I could.

The Brother fax 770 is a great choice for people looking for a copier and fax in one, and it is a really reliable machine for home use, as well as the home or small office user. It also has great remote capabilities, which enables me to re-route faxes that come through to any nearby fax machine if I am working away from home. It can also be connected to the answering machine, which is a great feature, as whenever I am away I connect it with the answering machine. That way, if there’s a call, the answering machine picks it up and if it’s a fax it forwards it to the fax machine. It can even resend a fax to wherever I am if I need it urgently.

At first glance replacement cartridges are a little expensive, but the fact that they seldom require a change makes it okay again. In reality I think it works out as a pretty economical machine. Other pluses of this fax and copier include its size – which is compact enough to fit on the most cluttered of desks. F or home use it is really a great machine to have. The Brother Fax 770 is a really good choice for those looking for a small, economical and thoroughly reliable unit.

Brother HL 5340D

Finding an affordable printer is not easy these days, especially if one is looking for a great product. For anyone facing this problem the Brother HL-5340D might be just up your street. The combination of price, running costs and reliability combine to make this a decent prospect when you need your next printer.

It offers an average speed of 32 pages per minute for text documents. I decided to test this, and even when using a stopwatch to ascertain the truth of this claim, had to grudgingly accept it. Decent spped and good quality monochrome printing makes it ideal for small business and home users like me.

The duplex printing mode makes it easier to print double-sided documents. It can actually cut the time in half for those like me, who produce mostly double sided prints. Monochrome flyers and leaflets are still popular, thankfully, and I produce thousands of them, which is why I needed a reliable printer.

The Brother HL-5340D offers a standard paper capacity of 300 sheets with 50-sheet multipurpose tray for envelopes and letterheads. It is a decent capacity for the average user and there should be hardly any need to replace the papers on an average working day in a small office or home office environment. Although, when the time comes, filling the paper tray is extremely simple. The Brother HL-5340D offers an optional 800-sheet tray but someone my size would find this an unnecessary add-on, with the standard 300 sheets being plenty enough. While the standard toner is more than adequate in economy and efficiency, there is also a high-yield 8,000-page toner offered for that extra value for money.

The actual performance of Brother HL-5340D is pretty good. Most users will be able to use the ‘plug and play’ mode without any complicated setup. Even when fully installing, the driver CD takes care of it for you. Even where there are times of high demand or deadlines, printing dozens of pages a minute and loading new jobs constantly, the HL – 5340 is able to keep up.

The Brother HL-5340D performs well under strenuous working conditions and there are hardly any issues with cooling, overheating or slow response. Overall this is a workhorse printer that can work all day and night without needing any TLC at all. My kind of printer.

Brother MFC 8860DN

If you need a monochrome laser printer for your small business, you can’t go far wrong with the Brother MFC-8860DN. It is another solid performer from the office equipment specialists at Brother. The MFC-8860DN is stuffed full of options that will satisfy even the most demanding office environments. A good quality mono printer, a copier, scanner and fax are all incorporated into a reasonably sized machine.

The printer runs at around 30 pages per minute at 1200 dpi. The results are great, producing prints of clarity and depth that is surprising for such a price point. The copier runs just as fast, producing accurate and credible copies at 30 pages per minute also. Images are reproduced faithfully with only minor graining on the grayscale. Edges are sharp with no jaggedness seen on other printers of this ilk.

Physically the automatic document feeder sits on top, and the wings overlap the chassis by a few inches. This is so the MFC-8860DN can incorporate a full sized scanner and copier, capable of processing full legal-sized copies or scans. The scanner itself produces good quality scans, to either paper or file. Integrated LDAP protocol allows scans to be sent using address book features on a network which is an interesting feature.

There is the standard 250 page paper drawer, which is expandable to 500 if you purchase the extra. Toner cartridges are easy to reach and to swap out. And paper is easy to load and recover. Jams were suspiciously infrequent, even when using the automatic document feeder, which is something well worth the purchase price all on its own.

The control panel is clean and clear, the LCD screen bright and easy to read. There are three buttons, one for each of scan, copy and fax, which makes the menu system simple and easy to navigate. This method avoids a lot of the convoluted menu systems that we have to fight through daily.

Installation is simple, with USB, parallel and Ethernet connections. Driver installation is quick and to the point, offering enough features to satisfy the busiest users. The scanner isn’t over endowed with tools, but the basic functions are enough for most uses.

Being capable of sharp, accurate prints, copies and scans, the MFC-8860DN is a sensible choice for the small business. It has enough features to keep the office working and enough areas of expandability to scale with the growth of it too.

Brother MFC 7840W

The Brother MFC-7840W is an attractive prospect for the small or home office, with a good all-round set of features. Priced to compete in that SOHO market it does perform well, and is worth the investment.

While there are many color laser multifunction devices on the market, they don’t come as cheaply as this monochrome MFC-7840W. Not everybody needs to print color, so this is an excellent alternative for those people. It is capable of printing, scanning, copying and faxing, and does them all with ease.

There are three ways of connecting the device, USB, Ethernet and WiFi, which is a good set of choices. The USB option is the easiest to set up, but offers slower transfer speeds than Ethernet or 802.11g. Networking the printer was easy, with it appearing in our workgroup as soon as we had connected it and switched it on.

The control panel is well designed and simple in operation. There are three large buttons that allows you to choose between copy, scan and fax and the bright LCD clearly shows you what you’re doing.

Output is good, with prints coming out at 22 pages per minute for monochrome at up to 2400 x 600dpi. The text was clear on all tests with clean edges and no bleeding. Grayscale was even and well distributed and reproduction was good overall. Scans were of a good quality, but the software leaves a little to be desired. The package is basic to say the least but you can get by.

Paper is held in a 250 sheet capacity drawer at the front. Toner can be changed quickly and efficiently with only a clip to remove. Replacement cartridges can produce 2600 pages, and replacement drums will last for 120000. While not the longest lasting consumables on the market, their relatively short life is reflected in the price. Retailers like quikshiptoner.com sells cartridges for $36 at the moment which is good value.

The fax is a standard affair, offering good quality matched with decent speed. The controls are simple and the control panel has the usual phone book, redial, resize and other options for normal use. Transmission was decently quick and print quality on received faxes was good.

For small businesses or workgroups who need a multifunction device for convenience rather than necessity will do well to consider the MFC-7840W. It has enough features, and produces documents of a quality suitable for almost any office environment. The consumables are available and affordable enough to make the cost of ownership low enough to be attractive to many buyers.

Brother Intellifax 2920

Purchasing the Brother Intellifax 2920 was the choice I made for meeting my particular needs. Being the owner of a small home-based business I was looking for a fax machine that possessed the usual features and provides fast, quality results. Sometimes things get a bit hectic and I need something that works quickly with the minimum of fuss. The Brother Intellifax 2920 turned out to be what I was looking for.

The super G3 fax machine was easily homed in my small office space. Its compact design and front loading paper cassette tray helped me fulfill my work quotas, while not taking up too much space, or being too intrusive.

The 20 touch dial locations in the Brother Intellifax 2920 allowed me to contact most used numbers and regular customers easily, quickly and efficiently. I’m able to communicate with my clients more often and more quickly which helped me in reducing their complaints by responding to their requests immediately.

The efficient Brother Intellifax 2920 has the aforementioned front loading 250 sheet paper tray and a 30 page auto document feeder. You can easily store up to 500 pages in the fax memory for out of paper transmission and this fax also features 16 MB memory with dual access. The easy to use and convenient access also allows you to replace the toner and drums when required.

All Brother fax 2920 machines work using separate toner and drum which can be changed without drama. The Brother Intellifax 2920 machine is perfect for my needs and allows me to use the same ink cartridges for my laser printer as well. This multifunctional fax machine is able to send and receive a large number of faxes and also allows me to scan while the faxes are coming in and going out. It has all the features that an expensive fax machine would posses: from providing quality and quick results to easy and intuitive to set up.

This is a solid performing machine. As you may have gathered, things get a little frenetic at times, and this baby helps me out a lot. All I can say is the Brother Intellifax 2920 has helped me in sending and receiving high volumes of faxes and provides quality results every time.

Brother HL 4040CN

I am a freelance writer and editor and often have to print in large quantities. I bought the Brother HL-4040CN and found it to be ideal for my workload. Previously I was using a printer that was almost eight years old and extremely toner hungry, noisy and inefficient. A friend told me about the Brother HL-4040CN and I ended up buying one, despite plenty of research into competitors.

The main reason for buying Brother HL-4040CN is that it’s a color laser. I was tired of using black and white printers, and there was some work that needed an elaborate colored printing. Clients often want proofs with colored marking, which a monochrome printer just can’t handle. While my color needs were modest, I couldn’t do without it. I therefore opted for the Brother.

It’s also quick, offering an output of 21 pages per minute and has monochrome printing capability as well as full color. I am using the included Ethernet interface connectivity and it’s working fine for me. Paper capacity is around 300 sheets and there is high capacity replacement of toner cartridges.

The USB Direct Interface on Brother HL-4040CN provides PictBridge support. This means that I can connect my PictBridge-compliant camera to the printer and then print pictures directly from the camera. There’s simply no need of first downloading them on a PC. This is handy if I just want to print a picture or two rather than having to boot the whole computer.

I was concerned about the setup part as I am not well-known for my technical prowess. It was, however, quite an experience for me, being able to set it up within 10 minutes. The instructions definitely helped me out there as they were clear, descriptive and actually in English.

The control panel of the HL-4040CN is one-touch operation and enables me to complete all printing jobs with the minimum of fuss. I like things to be simple to use, and this certainly qualifies. An LCD display makes it easier to check the status of print jobs and the menu selection helps me in starting the process.

The replacement of toner cartridges and cleaning isn’t a difficult job as it is done through a front loading flap. I have become a fan of the Brother HL-4040CN because of it easy-to-use working and excellent printing results. While I’m no technophile, it does seem exceedingly easy to use, straightforward and does exactly what it says on the box.

Brother MFC 8440

The Brother MFC-8440 is a monochrome laser multifunction printer that is built to beat the competition, and we must say that it does. It prints at 21 pages per minute at 600 dpi, scans in color at 600 x 2400 dpi, copies as well as it prints, and has a fully feature fax machine that is all the fax you will ever need.

We all know the laser printer market is hot right now and competition is fierce. Multifunction devices really have to be good to stand out, and the features have to be spot on in order to sell. The Brother MFC-8440 succeeds in both aspects and deserves to be considered for any laser printer purchase.

Out of the box the device is simple to install and configure. The toner cartridge fits into the imaging unit and then slides right in to a drawer on the front. The control panel and LCD screen was designed with users in mind, so is intuitive and clear. It walks you through the rest of the setup process with ease. Drivers are also straightforward, walking you through the install and even telling you when to attach the cables.

The user manual is easy to follow and quite comprehensive. There is also further documentation on the driver CD. Technical support is readily available, with further manuals, information, FAQs and drivers available on the Brother website.

The MFC-8440 has the standard 250 sheet paper tray, which can be expanded to 500 with an optional expansion drawer. An automatic document feeder of 50 sheets, a fax with phone book memory, short dials and an intriguing feature that can disperse incoming faxes to clients on a network if you purchase the optional network card. It can also page you when a fax arrives which is a useful feature for faxes intensive offices.

Print quality is good, nice, crisp edges on text and decent image reproduction. At 21 pages per minute it isn’t lightning fast, but respectable enough. The scanner is okay, easy to use, and the lid can move up and down for thicker documents. This adds quite a bit of flexibility when copying or scanning as thick books or magazines are now easy to archive or duplicate.

Running costs are reasonable, with consumables being competitively priced.
A new toner cartridge is currently around $30 and will last a good 6500 pages, while a new drum is around $65 and will keep going up to around 20000 pages.

All in all, this is a product worthy of note and well placed in its target market. It has everything a multifunction device needs, and complete all tasks with ease.

Brother MFC 9970CDW Printer Review


Overview
The all-in-one Brother MFC-9970CDW will save you not only time, but money and space as well. You will be able to get any tasks done fast using the print, copy, and scan capabilities of this machine. There is also a touch screen control panel feature that will save more time and effort on your part. You can even print or scan your work from a USB flash drive, which a lot of businesses seem to need to have this option nowadays. This printer will provide your office with the efficiency it’s looking for, at a price that won’t break the bank.  Overall, your small or medium sized business with low to moderate print, scan, or copy needs will be well suited with this machine.

Pros
The Brother MFC-9970CDW weighs about 63 pounds and has dimensions of 20.9 inches high x 19.3 inches wide x 20.7 inches deep. It would be well suited for an area or room nearby, so that it won’t be in the way near any workstations. The printer can fit easily on a table or large desk. Two people will probably have to carry it and set it up due to its larger size.
Duplexing is standard on this model. This feature allows for work to be printed on both sides of the paper. You can save costs on purchasing paper and will give your company a ‘greener’ edge over competitors at the same time.   The scanner is also duplex-ready, and can read both sides at once.
The printer has a display that is a 5” color touch control panel. This makes selecting your options extremely quick and simple.
Wireless connectivity is another great feature included on this model. This makes it easy and quick for both users and guests to do the jobs they need.
30 pages per minute is the printing speed of this machine. It prints just as quickly whether doing black & white or color. Even the largest printing jobs can get done just as fast.
Cost-per-page for black & white is 2.7 cents and color is 13 cents.
The paper tray holds up to 250 sheets, and an ADF (automatic document feeder) has the capacity of 50 sheets. If there are larger printing needs, there is an optional tray you can purchase that holds 500 sheets, making the total capacity 800.
 
Cons
While the text quality of this printer is outstanding, the graphics and photo quality falls a bit short. If you are going to be printing a lot of images, this is probably not the printer for you.
Considering the fact that the paper capacity of this printer is on the smaller side while the speed is quite high, you will be running through a lot of paper very quickly. This means it can get quite bothersome to constantly have to be refilling the paper tray.

Brother MFC 8890DW

The Brother MFC-8890DW is an all in one machine, allowing the user to do all the scanning, printing, copying and faxing on one piece of equipment, saving costs and more importantly, workspace. This is a relatively newer model in the MFC series. A stand out advantage of this machine is the ease with which you can produce your documents in different styles. No more manual flipping of pages with the MFC-8890DW laser printer.

The MFC-8890 DW saves a lot of paper with its duplex ability. This newer model in the laser printer category allows producing two-sided printing and scanning, unlike the older makes that have duplex only for printing. The machine has a built in automatic system of document adjustments, allowing the user to produce what they need without having to leave their seat at all. The machine is wireless, a feature that I prefer in each type of office equipment. However, it can be wired to different systems when required.

The manufacturer claims a printing speed of thirty two pages per minute but practically it is slightly less than that. I personally prefer the quality of prints that the machine produces over lesser speed as the resolution is great with all the prints and scans that I do. The print resolution given by the Brother MFC-8890DW is approximately 1200 x 1200 dots per inch. The fax option that comes in with the printer is also one of the reasons to go for Brother MFC-8890DW. The fax machine in the system is easy to operate and there is not a lot of hassle involved with faxing.

The Brother MFC-8890DW functions well over a network with both wireless and wired networking options available. The transfer rate is fairly swift over the network. The machine has the option of color scanning over the network, a feature not very common in multi-task printers. The paper storing capacity is up to 300 sheets, which is sufficient if you’re a small team using the machine, otherwise you may have to feed paper frequently. This is not an issue frankly, as a lot depends on the nature of work we have to do.

There is a fair amount of software installation that I had to do before the machine started functioning. This is a slight drawback for those who are not good with such things.
Otherwise, Brother MFC-8890DW is enough for all my printing, scanning, faxing and copying needs at the workplace as well as having the added bonus of being really efficient with toner usage, so it is not an expensive unit to keep.

Brother MFC 9440CN

The Brother MFC-9440CN is another winning machine from the Brother stable. With a brand name synonymous with quality, it’s bound to offer something for every occasion.
Brother isn’t often the first name you think of when shopping for printers, but it is a big name in the small business market. The company has a few printers out there at the moment, and they are all good quality, reliable machines.

The MFC-9440CN is no different. It is a full color multifunction device that offers printing, copying, scanning and faxing, all from one convenient chassis. While not the smallest device in the world. It is stuffed full of features, and contains just about everything the small business needs.

The control panel is simple and straightforward, taking only a minute or two to orient yourself. The panel is divided up into functions which makes it easy to navigate, and prevents confusion when using more than one function. The two copier buttons, one for monochrome and the other for color was a nice touch, and makes selection about as easy as it can get.

Printing and copying is of good quality. Reproduction during testing was accurate and sharp. Edge details were crisp with no bleeding, even on the largest text. Image reproduction was also good with no banding on black and white images, and accurate color reproduction on full color images.

Print speed is also good with a rating of 22 pages per minute for monochrome printing and copying and 17 pages per minute for color. The scanner is decent and can be used from in front of the machine or the desktop. The included software allows for decent editing before and after scanning and is an excellent addition to the suite.

Toners are easy to replace, and there is even an ecology mode to allow for savings wherever possible. The single pass technology that brother uses, not only permits the high page per minute rate, but also offers savings on toner use. Standard cartridges are good for 5000 sheets in black, and 4000 in color.

Connecting and configuring the MFC-9440CN is pretty straightforward. It can be connected via network or USB and is easy to set up. The drivers and user manual are complete and easy to use.

This is a solid device for the small business. It is fully featured enough to offer the flexibility that a business needs while the cost of ownership is low enough to make it an attractive proposition. The running costs are also attractively low, with toners costing less than competitors, and the ecology mode saving as much as possible during use.

Brother MFC 8840D

The Brother MFC-8840D is the duplex variant of the MFC-8840. It has all the same features like the 20 page per minute monochrome printing, copying, scanning and fax, with the added bonus of automatic duplexing.

The MFC-8840D is a fully featured multifunction device that offers nothing new to the genre, but is a good enough performer to warrant a review. It provides printing, scanning, copying and faxing as per all the other true multifunction devices out there, but it does something that most of its competitors don’t. It performs all functions well.

Often when purchasing a multifunction there is an inherent knowledge that there is a compromise somewhere. To get the benefits of four functions in one chassis, something has to give. An average scanner, basic functions or resolutions of high toner use are typical symptoms of this. But, with the MFC-8840D there are no compromises, the device does exactly what it promises.

The laser printer outputs mono at 21 pages per minute at a maximum resolution of 2400 x 600 dpi. It is fed by a 250 paper tray, which can be expanded to 500. There is also a single sheet multipurpose tray and an automatic document feeder on top. The MFC-8840D supports the usual printer languages, PCL 6 and BR-Script which is Brothers version of PostScript. This enables the device to work with any operating system with the correct drivers.

The fax can function as a standalone fax machine, or as a PC operated one. There is enough memory to record up to 600 faxes, which is also expandable for heavy users. The standard is 32Mb, but this can be stretched to 160Mb by purchasing a larger DIMM.

The scanner can use either the automatic document feeder, or the single sheet glass. It works on resolutions up to 600 x 2400 dpi and produced credible scans. Not many of us use them anymore, but having a decent scanner on hand can be a good thing sometimes.

Running costs are modest, the MFC-8840D has a power saving mode, toner saving mode and seems pretty efficient. Toner itself is reasonably priced, with a high yield cartridge having a 6500 age capacity and costing a little under $30. Replacement drums are just as cost effective at $65, and will last for 20000 pages.

For a small workgroup that has medium to low printing demands this is an ideal device. It’s cheap to buy, cheap to run and produces documents of a quality much higher than the cost.

Brother MFC 8480DN

There are more choices of multifunction devices than I ever thought possible now. A bewildering array of multifunction’s both color and monochrome to fulfill almost any need or business. The Brother MFC-8480DN has just complicated things further.

While not the prettiest of devices, the MFC-8480DN is all about function. The overlapping scanner and copier flatbed protrudes over the body a bit, but this is necessary to add the full features to a small chassis. The 250 sheet capacity paper drawer is solid and moves freely. There is also a 50 sheet multi-purpose tray on top and the option to add a second 250 page paper tray in the body.

Setup is just a matter of unpacking, connecting the cables and toner then installing drivers. Our test machine was up and running in no time. There are drivers for Windows, Mac and downloadable ones for most flavors of Linux. Once up and running the operation was smooth and quiet.

Performance was impressive too. Monochrome prints began appearing a mere 18 seconds after being switched on. Once warm, text prints came out at an impressive 32 pages per minute at the standard 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution. Reproduction was good, with strong bold colors and clean lines. Image production was also good with impressive grayscales and only a couple of gradient errors when studied close up. Nothing that would give a business user cause for concern though.

The automatic duplex printer is a great feature. Although it lacks the duplex automatic document feeder to compliment it, the performance is excellent and a great feature.

The consumables are easy to manage and replace. The cartridge is readily available online and are quite good value for money. A single high yield toner cartridge is good for 8000 pages and retails at only $35 at Quikshiptoner.com.

The MFC-8480DN is a solid, middle of the road performer, that will still be working quite happily long after many, more expensive printers have been retired. Ownership costs are low enough to be as attractive as the feature set, and the reproduction is of a quality to suit all business needs. The printer market, just got a little bit more complicated.

Brother HL 4070CDW

The Brother HL-4070CDW is another good, solid printer from the Brother range. This is also aimed squarely at the small or home office market, and delivers on all its promises.

This is a color laser printer that can output up to 20 pages per minute monochrome or color. Print quality is good in the default 600dpi resolution. Monochrome blacks and grays are clear and well formed. No bleed or jagged edges on large text or images. Color was much the same, with accurate reproduction and smooth clean lines throughout.

Paper is fed into a drawer on the front which can hold up to 250 pages. Toner cartridges are also fed from the front, and a convenient release button allows quick access. The black cartridge will print up to 5000 standard pages, with the color ones reaching 4000.

The LCD screen and controls are simple and easy to use. The screen changes color depending on the status of the machine, which is a good touch. It stays green when it’s ready to print, red when there is an error or problem, and orange when settings are being configured. The controls are a square directional affair with a Go and Cancel buttons to complement.

Setup is easy, with four connection options to choose from. Standard USB, parallel, Ethernet and WiFi. Configuration and driver installation is just as easy, with the software package installing in just over a minute. Wireless setup is probably the most straightforward you can get. You can either use the SecureEasySetup program or connect via Ethernet and configure it. The first method worked well and detected the network straight away.

Another useful feature is the USB port at the front, which enables you to print straight from a USB drive or digital camera. This saves a bit of time, not having to load them data onto a computer then print. The LCD screen allows you to choose the files you want to print and then prints them directly from the device.

The reasonable cost of the printer, added to the availability of consumables from places like Quikshiptoner.com make the HL-4070CDW a solid contender for the home or small business market. While a bit light on features, the reproduction is of good enough quality to satisfy most business needs. With fast printing and good quality results, this is a great purchase.
