Pros: -compact design -ease of use -networking abilities
Cons: -print quality for photos is subpar -document feeder has small capacity -phot tray is inconvenient

I got this printer for what I perceived to be a great price and an overall great value. Prior to this printer, I was using the free one that came with my computer. Boy is this a step up! However, this printer introduces many nice features, but does ...

Pros: Reasonable quality, Good price, Low cost maintenance, Compact, Many features, Generally Fast, Performs Well
Cons: Small Screen, On/Off Button Acts Strange, Just for light works, Bad conception of paper tray

We bought this multifunction some weeks ago to replace a printer HP 940c and, possibly, an old Officejet 635. We use it at home. We looked for a machine which would allow us to combine office's and family's necessities: - Print photos directly from a ...

Pros: Fast printing, great quality, user friendly, very economical, compact design, many functions, a great machine!
Cons: On/Off button only works when it wants to.

I bought this printer after having to trash two HP printers that died shortly after purchase. I chose this printer for one because it was the only one available that wasn't HP, and it had an awesome rebate (I paid $69.99 for it after the rebate) in ...

Pros: - Saves space over separate Printer, Scanner, etc... - Fast, Performs Well - Call Display
Cons: - USB Plug is a Hassle - Small Screen - On/Off Button Acts Strange

I've had this multifunction center for about a week now. I've put it through it's paces and am pleased to announce that it performs quite well. I like that it has the option of using ADF and Flatbed capabilities for scanning. I also like that it ...

Pros: Lots of features.
Cons: Constantly needs ink. Can't print black and white without having colour ink as well.

I had this printer purchased for me, for office work I do at home. Boy am I glad I didn't have to shell out the big bucks for this one, although, sadly, I do have to shell out the big bucks to keep it running. It requires the gross domestic product of a ...

Pros: An otherwise reliable, competent home office machine.
Cons: Machine is disabled after a pre-determined amount of print jobs.

The Brother MFC 240C received reasonable reviews from epinions and given it’s price point (and the death of my rave reviewed Canon Multipass MP390 which I need to revise) I had to get a new machine in short order. I got stung years ago and learned an ...

Pros: Cheap, good print quality, scans nice images. Very functional.
Cons: Flimsy construction, poor fit, goes through ink a hot knife through butter.

You get what you pay for: yet another virtually disposable printer/scanner/copier/fax. Printing: it goes through cartridges pretty quick. For me, black lasted about 150 pages, colour lasted about 200. I've re-filled the cartridges twice so far, at ...

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Cheap

This printer is too expensive even if Brother gives it for free. I bought this printer a couple of months ago for home use where I need to use it lightly. I do not use it for colored printing and have only printed a few pages in black since I bought it. ...

Pros: Cheap, perform functions well, good print quality
Cons: Consumes ink without printer, dull color printing, slow printing, trouble setting configuration.

This printer does a good job in printing, scanning/copying and faxing. Unlike the other reviewer, I don't have any problem on paper feeding. B/W printing quality is good but color printing seems a bit dull. Printing speed is good but the printer ...

Pros: The all-in-one feature. Photo printing decent.
Cons: 99% of it. Paper dock, scanner size, color duplication, ink glutton.

My mom bought this product for it's cheap price (she thought "how bad can it be?" Our old HP Inkjet had lasted 7 years and we had to replace it only because someone dropped it. So we needed a printer and my mom rush bought it (always a mistake and I told ...

Pros: Great print quality, excellent price point
Cons: None yet

We just purchased this printer yesterday at Office Max for the rock bottom price of $59.99 after a $40 mail-in rebate. I have to admit we had some trepidation after reading these mixed reviews but figured we would have 2 weeks to change our minds should ...

Pros: Features. Price.
Cons: Expensive Ink. Chews through paper. Poor color duplication. Slow processes.

I bought this combo machine after research and reading reviews based on it's features & of course, price. From the very first day it ripped through paper, and even after I changed to different paper weights, it still did it. The cartridges need ...

Pros: smaller size, cost
Cons: small paper tray

I was looking for a fax machine but also wanted a flatbed copier so I wouldn't have to run to Kinkos all the time with rebates and financial papers that I needed copies of. Enter the world of MFCs, and you are up to your ears in so many options. I did ...

Pros: Easy to use, every function possible.
Cons: None.

How relieved am I to have finally found the all in one printer of my dreams! The Brother MFC-240 is exactly what I wanted. It faxes, copies, prints and scans. My last printer was a Hewett Packard, and although it worked I wanted to upgrade to ...

Pros: Decent machine, price, easy ink changing, flexible machine.
Cons: Stupid fax modem locks printer up while online with dialup.

While this printer is fine in quality and features, the problem lies when one has dial up internet access.

It seems that you can not be both online and use the printer. The printer refuses to respond, thinking there will be a fax coming soon.

So to print, one must download the object to be printed, go offline, then print. Scanner and copier likewise do not work.

Printer will refuse to shutdown, or enter standby mode while online.
