A big leap from inkjet printer. It's worth it
on November 19, 2013
Posted by: ownerwithcarpet
from New York, NY
I use it for:Document printing
I'm tired of using inkjet printers. I especially hate the Epson inkject catridges with programmed chips, they forced me to keep buying new ones although there's still a half-full ink. I picked Brother after doing some research. So far I like its superior quality, fast color printing, the duplex capability, plus it works with wirelessly. Also it has Energy Saver feature and yet it still can wake up, print quite fast. I wish they make a CD/DVD print tray adapter or something so that I can print on CD/DVD directly. Brother does make another Multi Function Color Printer that does it but it's not a laser printer, it uses inkjet. I finally selected and bought this one instead. Mostly I need it for my kid's school homework or project rather than printing on a CD/DVD (if ever).
What's great about it: No more ink catridges to worry about
What's not so great: It cannot print on DVD/CD directly like other Brother inkjet printer
I would recommend this to a friend!

The use of Brother Genuine replacement standard-yield toner cartridges like the TN-221BK helps produce sharp, black and white pages with the quality you expect from Brother products. The Brother TN-221BK replacement black toner cartridge is for use with 6 Brother printers. This professional cartridge is intelligently engineered to work in seamless unison without compromising the quality of the print. The Brother Genuine TN-221BK replacement standard-yield black toner cartridge can print approximately 2,500 pages. Brother is dedicated to being environmentally responsible and offers disposal programs for properly discarding its cartridges.

Good toner but wrong category (inkjet) in BestBuy
on November 17, 2013

I got Brother Laser printer after I finally got tired of buying Epson MFC inkjet cartridges with electronic chips. Laser printer is costly in the beginning but its quality is much sharper/better and it doesn't smudge if there's a little moisture. Also I don't want to deal with inkjet cartridges anymore. Unfortunately I need to spend more in advance compared to inkjet printer cost. And I could not find this toner under the laser toner category in Best Buy online but finally I found it under inkjet category. Best Buy online should fix this.
I used to have Epson printer. Sometimes the Epson ink dried out if I didn't use the printer for a while. Sometimes I printed only a few pages, the chips told me that I ran out of ink. And worse if one ink is out, then I cannot print anything. I never want to buy any Epson printer anymore.
HP printer has a good printing quality in general & better print quality compared to Epson but my past experience with HP inkjet printer, the ink cartridges ran out quickly. So it's not cost efficient but I got the worst experience with Epson inkjet printer and (as well as cheap Canon inkjet printer).

What's great about it: save $$ compared to my old Epson MFC inkjet cartridges
What's not so great: It's a toner but in Best Buy online it's incorrectly under inkjet

Excellent Commercial AntiVirus Program
on September 26, 2013
Posted by: ownerwithcarpet
from New York, NY
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an excellent anti-virus overall, my pc is protected. I got it with the limited 6 month period and 3 licenses so I can install it up to 3 devices. I like the parental control feature which is not available in the Free AntiVirus software like AVG or Avira. It seems to load a bit slow and behind of my other startup programs, I thought it should load first. And I tried SafeMoney feature but it once became non-functional or had issues, I couldn't access my wanted web site; I had to skip/ignore using this feature finally.
My Best Buy number: 0572147233

What's great about it: Has parental control feature
What's not so great: SafeMoney sometimes didn't work. Slow loading during pc startup.

Excellent quiet and bagless cannister vacuum

It doesn't cost as much as my old vacuum cleaner Dirt'nDevil vacuum (not canister type). This one is much lighter, more powerful and quieter.
Sometimes it gives an electric static if I grabbed the handle bar located next to the power switch while operating it. But overall I still like this canister vacuum.

Looking for sowftware
I have a problem with my computer right now, and I have done some research on it to make sure and I' m not the only person who has had or has this problem. I'm unable to download anything examples I cant download updates for my computer or anything of a secure website I get a message that says downloading then says download deleted contained a virus, a lot of problems I have read says its a problem with AVG but I don't have that another said it is because of to many antiviruses on the computer and another says it has to do with IE 10, I' m clueless on what to do and I don't have the money to take it in any advise will be helpful
Once your computer has been infected with viruses and without an anti-virus protection unfortunately it's really difficult to have your healthy pc back. Some viruses are quite destructive and bad, some are not so harmful (but still bad). Even if you're quite technical, you might need to do a lot of work and clean ups. Finally you might have to purchase an antivirus software like Kaspersky and boot from the CD provided, it might be able to disinfect most of the viruses or it might try to repair your pc files and operating system. But there are some files that once corrupted/damaged, they cannot be sanitized anymore. The cleanest and free way is to restore / reformat your pc and reinstall your Windows operating system if you know how to do it and if you don't have anything important (documents/family pictures) in your pc. Otherwise you'd better safe some $$ and then try to buy one antivirus and salvage your important files, then reinstall your Windows to make sure you have a clean pc.
