Sherrod I am very pleased with my Brother MFC-9440CN. Here are some positive and negative points: -- Positive -- It is very easy to set up. I have it configured for access through Ethernet, and it was far easer to get set up than other network printers I've installed. Other setup options are easy to understand and set. It also supports USB and parallel connections. No printer cables are provided. Software installed quickly and without problems under Windows XP. Black and white print quality is outstanding -- as good as any printer I've ever used. The print speed is very good. Is a very solid machine (it takes two people to lift it). It feels like it is built to last. (see negative comment below) Copying is easy, and there is an option to collate copies of multipage documents (they call this "stacking"). Toner cartridges are reasonably priced on a cost/page basis It has a front auxiliary paper feeder that can be used for envelopes or other media. I find this extremely valuable. I haven't had any paper jams. I have successfully printed color CD labels using Neato label material. It handled the thick material fine, and the image was good. Faxes are easy to send. -- Negative -- It takes 30 seconds for the first copy to be completed when you do the first print while it's cold. I have an HP 2420d that gets the first copy out in 7 seconds flat. The machine is heavy and large. Don't try to move it by yourself. (see positive note above). The color saturation is not as deep as I would like. Don't misunderstand, the color is good, but when printing something like a bar chart with deep, solid colors, the colors aren't as deep as I would like. There may be some setting to adjust this, but I haven't found it. The machine makes more noise than my HP 2420d, but the noise is not objectionable. The machine draws a lot of power My room lights dim when it is warming up. Overall summary: Very fine color laser printer that is easy to set up, easy to use, fast, and solidly built. I have no regrets with the purchase. 43 of 43 people found the following review helpful. Excellent unit! By Ovidiu Predescu I was looking for a device to replace my aging HP OfficeJet D145, which started to have problems printing color. I was looking for a multi-function device that can print, fax and occasionally scan. I also wanted duplex capability, so I can save paper by printing double-sided. I read great reviews of this unit, and I saw it in action in a local store. The only thing which I wasn't clear about was the duplex capability. Amazon lists it as having this capability, but Brother's own web site does not. Since I bought this device I can positively confirm it does NOT have duplex capabilities. Nevertheless I was not willing to step up to its bigger brother, the 9840cdw, since it's just bigger, heavier and in my opinion not as nice looking as this unit I was looking for a silent machine, both when it's printing but also during its sleep time. For a home office printer I don't want more noise in it. This unit is rated at 30db noise. It's whisper quiet while sleeping, and not too loud when printing. It's certainly louder than the D145. There is a big fan on the right hand side of the printer that makes a lot of noise. When the printer boots up or prints the first page after it's been waken up from sleep, it tends to make a lot of noises for about 40 seconds. When not in sleep mode, the first page comes out in some 21 seconds, which is really fast and exactly as stated on Brother's web site. The print quality is excellent! If you're using an inkjet for your day to day prints, you should look at outputs from laser printers. I'll still be using my Epson printer for photo prints, but for quick pictures for my kids to take at school, I'll be using this machine This device comes with 64MB of RAM inside it. You may want.
