What's great about it: WE PRINT ABOUT 5,000 SHEETS A MONTH, I BUY TONER AND FILL $15EACH
What's not so great: ONLY PAPER JAM WHEN IT WORKS HARD THE HEAT CURLS THE SHEETS
A MUST IF YOU PRINT ALOT YOU GET MORE THAN SOME SMALLER UNITS WE USED WHEN OUR WORK WAS SMALLER. THE F3 SUPER FAX IS A MUST WE FAX JUST AS MUCH AND IT SAVES THEM IN THE MICHINE SO IT CAN MULTI TASKS EVERYONES WORK AT THE SAMETIME

What's great about it: Easy to use, easy to setup, reliable
What's not so great: Scanning Documentation
I purchased this machine for a new startup business mainly to have a fax, copier, and scanner. The printer is my backup printer. I found it easy to use and easy to setup. I am not one to read manuals and figured out everything except the scanner just by using the menu system.
The only downfall was the scanner documentation. Had problems getting it to communicate (machine is on office network), then problems figuring out how to make it scan. I did email brother and their response was quick and accurate. Now I think the scanner is the best, I do a lot of pdf scans and it is quick and simple and allows you to combine or separate a large number of documents to other documents.
Overall a great buy!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Just keeps going and going
What's not so great: none
I have been using this for my business for about a year. This multi function machine just works, period.
No issues at all, other than a rare paper jam but that will happen with any printer.
I print a ton of paperwork and the fax is used consistently with no problems whatsoever.
IF you want a good reliable machine to help your business rather than hinder it, get this machine.

A Simply Wonderful, Fail-Safe Business Machine

Brother" could not have designed a more versatile, reliant, and Self-Explanatory product!
I use this product for Mortgage Processing from an off-site location. I typically print and fax in quantities of up to 50 pages at a time, and as frequently as 6-8 times daily. My toner cartridge will last 2 months at this pace, and I have yet to replace the drum (going on 1.25 years now).
The speed is amazing! The large scale copier at my National Guard Unit moves at a fraction of the speed of this, "Brother," desktop model.
I rotate between paper sizes seamlessly--to include card stock, and am able to work all copies through the automatic feed-tray with only 3 paper jams in the time that I've owned this product.
The only downfall to this product is the included software for scanning documents. It's a bit confusing and will not effectively scan multiple items at at a time. It also fails to pick up the top and bottom edges of the item to be scanned, if the item is laid directly on the glass as opposed to using the document feeder. I have been able to manually scan documents one at a time, and save directly to the computer however this process is slow and takes some know-how. The machine puts out a great picture though! It's the software that needs improvement.
Overall, I will never stray from "Brother" when it comes to multi-function business machines. This product has saved my tail a number of times when negotiating last minute deals and price-locking. I fully recommend it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

We purchased this machine for our small office. We have it connected to the network router and everyone uses the printer wireless. The set up was simple; just pop the enclosed disk into each computer and follow the prompts. The software has capability of OCR and various scan formats. The machine is built very stout much like a full size office copier; it seems to be able to handle daily usage in an office environment. At this price it is a real bargain.
I would recommend this to a friend!
