I have been using this printer for years and have run about 50,000 pages through it!!!!! I am still refilling the original cartridges that came with the printer with bulk ink I purchased on ebay years ago.

BIG Mistake. Poor color quality printing (not at all similar to the original paper). Drinks ink non-stop. will not function at all if any of the ink is empty. Keeps giving "NO INK" messages, after I just replaced all inks. Not a good machine even for the money.

I've had problems with my MFC printer since the day I purchased it. First, I had problems connecting to the printer over my network. The IP address constantly resets and my laptop fails to recognize the printer 4 out of 5 times. This requires me to re-start the printer, reset the printer's network configuration and then re-start my laptop.
The copy resolution is terrible. They all turn out blurry and fuzzy - even after numerous attempts to correct the resolution through the printer head alignment feature. This problem has never gone away, thus rendering the copying feature worthless.
The ink runs out very quickly and the printer does a poor job of sensing when the ink is running low. Often, the printer thought the ink was about to run out when in actuality there's sufficient ink left. The problem is that once the printer thinks the ink is low, you can't do anything until the ink is replaced. Therefore, I rarely use the machine as a printer.
To top it all off, about 1 1/2 years after purchasing this machine, I received a "Failed to Init." message which means that the printer has a mechanical issue that needs fixing. The printer is completely unusable until this problem is fixed - costing more than the cost of a new one.
I decided to purchase a Canon MX-700 (for ~$100) and love it. This Canon machine is everything I was hoping for in an all-in-one printer. I will never purchase another Brother product again.

There were some issues with the product at delivery and we were truly impressed with how quickly and fully the service unit addressed our concerns to our 100 % satisfaction. I would certainly return to this vendor.

The black ink works after just 18 months, cleaning many times, try ahcohol to clean it, still not working ,had to throw whole set away, very bad product, I will never buy any Brother product again.
The design is that when any ink run out, you can not do anyting, and even you do not use, the ink dry itself, (it cleaning every few days by itself, using your inks).
