Brother MFC-9970CDW
The first page takes... This printer is fast in all modes. From off position (39 seconds), standby (28 seconds) and when running (10 seconds). It's worth comparing these results with those for the Brother HL-4570CDW which we tested previously: the equivalent single function version of this... Read more ...
PROSCost per page: 8.9 pence / Several toner sizes, Good print quality / Rapid, including in double-sided mode, Secure document feature, Wi-fi / Double-sided / Mac, Windows, Linux compatible, Low power consumption / Energy Star and Blue Angel
CONSCopy quality is rather average, Noisy: 56 dB(A) when printing

3rd Brother Printer in 3 years
Ok, I'm not one to usually write reviews, but I always appreciate the people who take the time to do so, so I thought I would do one. First off, Brother Printers seem like they are a good value. They are nice looking machines and I like the functionality of the laser, color, fax and scan. Read more ...

70lbs of features, limited control
Turns out that all of the documents scanned are stored in 1 image.pdf. No way to make each document a separate file, AND there is no way to change the name of the file. So even emailing each document one at a time results in lots of emails with the same file name. Might as well revert back to FAX. Read more ...
PROS3,000 characters is not enough to describe the good and bad of this beast. You can visit the Brother website for the many positive qualities of this machine. There is a reason this machine has 4 manuals, each 100+ pages. It does come with a quick setup, and one of the 4 large manuals printed.
CONSI am required to submit documents to the home office. The scan to email was a great feature, I can loose the fax line completely.

Brother 9970cdw printer-Drum
In general, we really like our Brother printers (we have several). We did run into problems with this one with the "replace drum unit" message. It wouldn't go away even after replacing the drum unit with a new one. After looking at the manual and doing an internet search, we finally called Brother. Read more ...
