A Big Step Up from my Brother MFC-8460 October 20, 2008 Michael A. Shoemaker (Houston, TX) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I use a Brother MFC-8460 in my other office and have been very pleased with the performance and reliability. I was about to buy a second one for a new office but came across an incredible deal on this MFC-9440cn (hard to pass up a color laser unit at the same price as the 8460 B/W unit!). Having bought it without seeing it in person I was a bit concerned, but when it arrived it exceeded my expectations.
Pros: * Quality construction: The weight of the unit and the quality feel of the machine is simply a cut above that of the 8460. And I am happy with the 8460 at its price, so I am really pleased with this unit! * Easy set up: While it is not a light unit, once you have it where you want it is very easy to set up. The instructions are easy to follow: Remove the protective tape, insert the toner cartridges and install the software. The software immediately located the printer on the network and configured everything without any issues. * Works: Every function that I have used worked the first time without any glitch or need to dig out manuals. (By the way, if you do need the manual it is nice that Brother includes a hefty printed manual instead of having to find the CDROM to get help.) * Quality Output: All of the tests that I have run have produced very nice output, including color photos on regular copy paper. (By the way, the one reviewer who rants that it uses color toner when printing black and white is incorrect. Like most color printers, it WILL use color if you leave the preferences in Auto or Color mode, but if you change your preferences to Mono it does indeed only use the Black cartridge. Read the software manual, page 39!)
Cons: * Slow for the first page out. Has to warm up and process stuff and therefore takes more time to get the first page out than the 8460 B/W unit. After the first page it is fine. * Run that fan! The first time you print something be ready to hear a real fan running hard! At least in comparison to the 8460 B/W unit, this unit has a more robust fan and it uses it. I am sure that it also generates more internal heat due to the four toner cartridges, so this more powerful (and therefore noisier) fan is actually a Pro and not a Con, but it was surprising how much more fan noise this unit produces vs. the 8460.
Overall, very pleased. And with the price that I paid (under $400), a downright steal! Even without that deal, I would feel very comfortable recommending this highly at its normal prices since I think the quality of the product is that much better anyway.
Does What It Says October 2, 2008 Gary Schlager (Chevy Chase, MD) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Like most, I was skeptical about all-in-ones. In fact, I waited a year longer than ideal to buy one, crossing my fingers that the "next" model would get all the bugs out. Well - this one did it. First a disclaimer.....I had my professional IT guy from my office come over to set it up/network it for my family and wife's business, etc and I max'd out the RAM from day one since I know color printing large docs can clog any machine up. With RAM being so cheap I recommend this to anyone doing large print jobs or photos of any kind.
So, given the machine's great performance with every function, I can only conclude that those who did not rate this product with 5 stars must be experiencing "user-error" at some point in the process. And don't be shy about buying a Brother machine - I too felt loyal to HP but based on most reviews and functionality (i.e. the Brother does faxing and the color laser HP does not - at the time I wrote this) this machine was the right choice.
Not only is this machine doing it all right, but it is actually performing its print, fax, copy and scan functions better than the previous 4 separate pieces of equipment we used to have. Most contend that this is an impossibility. Now that is a BIG bonus!
Another good Brother September 15, 2008 Birdieman (Big Rapids, MI USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
After suffering through 2 really poor HP printers I decided it was time to good for the gold and get a Brother MFC-9440CN. I found the Brother easy to set up and the print quality to be everything I needed. The Photo quality is not as good as an inkjet but is better then any magazine photo and for my needs it's just fine. If I want really high quality photos I'll go to a photo shop. The graphics are excellent.
No more ink cartridges drying out and/or clogged printheads. I've gone laser and never will go back. A laser may cost more but I know it will function when I need to print something. That can't be said of inkjets.
I'd recommend the Brother MFC-9440CN to anybody. It's fast and dependable. What more could one want?
Great product! September 6, 2008 H. Jellison (Nashville, TN United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a great product and I am very pleased with it so far. As other reviewers have already mentioned, it is rather on the large side. BUT-it is performing wonderfully! I am still trying to figure out how to get my pencil markings darker on the page. For some reason, it still wants to keep those light, but darken the original text. I am sure this is more an issue with the user, though. Overall, I feel very pleased that I bought this product. Now, we'll see if it holds up over time. That's always been my problem with MFC products.
