Brother MFC-5460CN

Pros: All components work well. Inexpensive. Good quality text printing and copying.

Cons: Noisy, others have screen for viewing photos. Photos not as good as developing stores.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend this printer for anyone on a budget who needs occasional photocopying and faxing along with their printing.

Review: I bought this printer to replace my HP model because I really wanted something that could photocopy. I was on a very restricted budget and this was on sale for a very good price. This is not a top of the line printer but I am very pleased with what I ...

Pros: The front panel is large enough to read without glasses.

Cons: The paper tray is difficult to open sometimes. Printing is louder than expected.

The Bottom Line: After using this product and finding it's high standard of quality, I highly recommend this product.

Review: I purchased this Brother Multi Function Printer shortly after my Epson All In One printer died one day for no apparent reason. I've been very pleased with the Brother multi-function printer for about one year now. I have printed at most about 10-20 ...

Pros: good ink usage, copier and fax easy to use

Cons: a bit noisy, 100 sheet holder

The Bottom Line: Good design, well engineered, very cheap.

Review: I wanted to replace my old cheap HP4330 inkjet printer because it was just too expensive to use (about 100-200 pages per 40$ cartridge) and my wife needed a fax machine for a contract job she got. I got this unit because the MFC-240 reviews were not ...

Pros: great price, good scanner, OK printer, & multi-functionality in one small machine

Cons: limited functionality of the copier, printer not photo quality, fax difficult to setup

The Bottom Line: An inexpensive solution to printing, copying, and scanning everyday things. But faxing is difficult, printing isn't photo-quality, and copying anything but normal-sized pieces of paper is almost impossible.

Review: Rather than buy a printer, scanner, fax machine, and copier separately we bought the all-in-one Brother to do the jobs of all four. We have had a Brother printer before and were pretty happy with it. The scanner works well, even to scan large amounts ...

Pros: Its an all-in-one that is effective for routine printing.

Cons: As a printer, it can only do the most basic jobs.

The Bottom Line: One would expect a printer to print on commonly available paper stock. You shouldn't have to discover the night before the big meeting that you bought the wrong machine.

Review: We all like the fact that one machine can do almost everything. However, I found that as a printer this machine is really limited. It is okay for standard printing but if you need to print trifolds or use thicker paper stock occasionally, you are just ...

Pros: Easy to unplug.

Cons: Misrepresents ink level, forces to change cartridges. Takes several pages at a time when printing.

Review: It very frequently says that the ink is empty and when you look at the window on the cartridge you see that there is plenty of ink still in it. But since absolutely all functions, even functions such as scanning that do not need ink, are blocked when the ...

Pros: None yet

Cons: Same as above...sold in 2007, copyright 2005 old and sold as new?

Review: I just bought this today 12/23/07. It was easy to install but when I printed out my first document the second page was faded. This ink shows full on the monitor but is really printing like the black cartridge is empty. Another complaint is that I just ...
