    "Brown Should Retire From Writing Reviews" on by easyshare

    Pros: Easy set up, excellent print quality, like the idea of the hidden cables and takes 2 different quantity of ink cartridges and it comes with the LC65 high yield cartridges.

    Cons: Fax was a little difficult to set up, but a call to support got me up and running. Printing is a tad slow, but not unlike my previous hp"s and epsons.

    Summary: I guess Canon is Browns fetish, because if you check the net you will find a plethora of printers using this same style and footprint. So its not an outmoded style. This printer has no larger a footprint than previous printers I have owned. It sure a lot quieter than most. For Browns info, Brother does offer a wireless printer if you are so inclined. I wasn"t.

    I agree. I work repairing Canon and Brother machines. I find both brands work very well, and like them better than any other brand. The hidden cable is something most people compliment Brother on, and the upper case hinges not only to let you plug in cables, but also to deal with paper jams if they should occur. I might add that most Canon MFPs I work on also have a hinged upper half for this exact same reason, not to mention getting at the serial number. As for the design (style), that's completely subjective. I find this style looks no worse than any other style, and I also find I can get great print quality from these machines.
    Maybe CNET should change the guys writing reviews for these types of products, perhaps someone who knows how they work?
    By the way, Brother is the #1 selling brand in Canada at the moment, and they have the BEST service BAR NONE. They will NEVER charge you for tech support.

    I must correct my error. Rich Brown only edited the review. J. Yu is the one who did the review and should be ashamed.
