Brother MFC-665CW Review

- Carrying a price tag of $200 (as of 10/25/2006), the Brother MFC-665CW is packed full of features for a small or home office. It offers a color fax, an answering machine, media slots, and wireless networking. The fax sends and receives at only 14.4 kilobits per second (compared to most rivals' 33.6 kbps), but the Brother can store up to 480 pages of received faxes. A telephone handset attaches to the left side of the unit, and also operates as a speakerphone. You get 80 speed-dial locations for storing fax and phone numbers. The integrated answering machine can store up to 29 minutes of messages in the 32MB of memory it shares with the fax.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: wireless ready

    Weaknesses: none so far

    Overall Evaluation: This is the great wireless ready AIO print server. You could set up this printer without any cable. You could directly operate scan/copy/fax/print function via network. Very very convenient! If this is a laser one, everything will be perfect.

    Weaknesses: Paper jams every time with a CD label sheet.

    Overall Evaluation: Super cheap for a MFC with WiFi, document feed, speaker-phone, digital TAD, etc.Brother support pathetic, just sent me list of supported paper specs (same as in the manual). It is supposed to accept up to 220gsm, 0.25mm cut sheet!! Grrr.On the whole excellent value for money spent.
