User Reviews for Brother Brother MFC-9440CN

Reviewed by: leacato

Duration of ownership: 4 Months

Strengths: Ease of use. Plenty of features.

Weaknesses: Very slow to warm up at start-up and to print a first page or single page. Mangles envelopes. Black and color are light even when adjustments are set for highest quality.

Overall Evaluation: I wish I had believed other reviews that mentioned the envelope issue. How can one manage a small office without the ability to print an envelope? Thankfully I kept the old HPLaser Jet which has been a tremendous workhorse for years but running up and down stairs for a single envelope is more than irritating.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Very nice prints. Easy to operate. Scanned images of great quality. Built-in fax and PC Fax are straightforward.

Weaknesses: No auto duplex. Heavy and comes with a very big box. I heard the toners and drums are very expensive.

Overall Evaluation: I've problem installing the scanner driver. Finally got it worked after three tries and reboots. I discovered I have to use Brother TWAIN, not MS windows. Otherwise, the setup is a breeze. The color prints from FINE mode with regular paper is only about 20% better resolution than the STANDARD (NORMAL)mode. I expected more. Anyway, the normal mode is quite decent and I think I can settle with this. I've not tried using photo paper for photo prints. Some mention the quality is much better using color inkjet.
