4 out of 5 stars 3 years and still running..........2007-02-24

I bought this machine in the summer of 2003 and I have used it ever since without any problems. I usually print out 30-50 pages per job twice a week using various kinds of paper. In all that time I have only changed the toner about three times a year but I haven't changed the drum unit not even once and I still get excellent print quality for my print and copy jobs, ranging from graphics-heavy church bulletins to letters to school assignments.
I have however given it a 4* rating because I'm disappointed with the quality of the scan jobs, especially when it comes to photos. The other problem has to do with the paper tray-it has no cover so when you leave papers in the tray for a few days while the printer is idle they get dusty and then they sometimes jam when you resume printing. I work around that by removing all the blank papers from the tray when not in use and then feeding only when I need to print. Otherwise it's a good machine and I've never had to call Tech Support.

4 out of 5 stars brother copier.......2007-01-10

I use 2 of these in my small medical practice. They require very little maintenance but some problems with paper jams on the automatic feed. Good quality copies.

3 out of 5 stars Good - with some drawbacks.......2006-10-28

I've liked the cost per page and good quality copies

BUT

You can not copy anything thick - the top must be closed. This was very annoying when trying to copy the bottom of a box so I could get the UPC code.

AND

It does not hold enough paper. I feel like I'm constantly loading the paper feeder.

5 out of 5 stars If you buy another printer, it will be larger & more costly.......2005-04-04

You can read all the reviews for all the other printers & compare the features or you can make the decision easy by getting this super value printer/copy/scanner & enjoy its printing quality within 12 minutes of opening the box.

I have a 2004 Compaq, Windows Home XP system. Set up was accomplished seemlessly the first time with the CD-ROM. This is the way it's supposed to happen. I opened the box, plugged the system into the computer with the USB, place the CD-ROM and followed the prompts and then set the printer as my default from the start menu and wow beautiful fast prints emerge from my command. The process took less than 12 minutes. It was so easy I did not have time to finish reading the instructions. I don't know where the other people writing these threads got their problems. The speed may not be the fastest on the market by specs, but the prints come out almost as fast as you can deal with them & as fast as the printers at work costing 10 times as much. The copy quality & ease are great and will not
disappoint you.

The initial cost & long-term cost are low. Over the next 5 years, my high quality prints will be less than $0.02 each including the cost of the printer.

Who needs a fax anymore. All you get from faxing is poor quality resolution. With email and the built in scanner all the functions that you would ever need for faxing is accomplished right here & you have the documents stored in your emials & not in a drawer. Also you don't need 2 phone lines or have the fax continually mess up your primary line. If I had a fax feature, I would not even hook it up, so why pay for a feature you don't want & could compicate the picture.

All the other machines of this quality are more exspensive to purchase and operate, are larger in size & are more complicated to run. I don't know how a home or small business could go wrong with this printer. A value priced home run.
Amazon got it to my house with standard shipping in 2 days. I am a happy customer with a product that fulfills its claims & purpose.

5 out of 5 stars What would I have done without it?.......2004-08-05

I've had mine for two full years, and I used it on most days. As a teacher, the convenience of sticking a book on the flatbed, pressing 25, and then hitting the green button, and having it print out 25 copies very quickly while I shave is... invaluable. I, for one, have never experienced any problems with the unit. I've replaced the toner twice -- a very simple procedure, and it's some of the cheapest toner around, giving me some of the lowest per page costs of laser printers. (Compare Brother toner to, say, Samsung toner.)

I don't experience paper jams, as I have with every other printer I, or my family members, have owned. The scanner integrates seemlessly with WinXP. Just a few minutes ago, I stuck on a cookbook, clicked "My Computer" in WinXP, then double clicked on the Brother icon, and it started the scanner wizard. I chose "greyscale image," it scanned it in maybe fifteen seconds, and then I clicked on "send to email" and I sent off the recipe to a friend of mine. The entire process took me about two minutes. It's not a scanner I'd use for archiving my photo collection, but it is good enough for most uses, and can copy a photo to my photo printer for a decent job.

I've been extremely happy with it. Cheap to operate for copying and printing, inexpensive toner with easy replacement, no printer jams. Two years service, and no decrease in quality. The "toner low" light does come on too early, but I just keep printing, usually a couple of hundred more pages, until I see fading, before I actually replace the toner. While this at first annoyed me, now I use the light as the "go order some toner so you have it around" light.

        Product Description

        The Minolta Maxxum STsi Panorama DATE offers some major advantages over even the most advanced point-and-shoot compact camera. The first is versatility. The Maxxum STsi is part of the world-renowned Maxxum system of autofocus SLR cameras, lenses, and accessories. The STsi can accept any Maxxum or Minolta AF lens, ranging from ultra-wide-angle 16mm fisheye to 600mm super telephoto, including zoom and macro lenses. This interchangeable lens versatility enables a quality, diversity, and style of photography that is not possible with any type of point-and-shoot camera. Additionally, the STsi can accept Maxxum's high-power accessory flash units, which provide the extensive and flexible flash coverage that's also impossible with a point-and-shoot camera.Another SLR advantage is through-the-lens (TTL) viewing. You see just what the lens sees. There is no need to make approximate parallax adjustments when framing the image. What you see is what you get. And because you're looking through the lens, you see the autofocusing as fast as it happens, so you know your subject will be sharp. A third SLR advantage is higher performance. The Maxxum STsi has a much more sophisticated autofocus and autoexposure system than a point and shoot camera, and this sophistication can easily be seen in the resulting photographs. Plus, because of the autoexposure system's flexibility, the STsi can accept the widest choice of 35mm films imaginable (ISO 25 - 5000, print or slide film, color or black and white). There is a wealth of information available on the uses and advantages of different film speeds and types. The Maxxum STsi will allow you to expand your photographic capabilities with lenses, flashes, and accessories as your interest in photography grows. It is a camera you'll want to keep for years to come.

                    Amazon.com Product Description

                    The i5853 from VTech is a 5.8 GHz cordless phone system with a number of handy extras, including caller ID/call waiting compatibility and multi-user expandability to eight handsets (one included). The i5853 utilizes the 5.8 GHz frequency and digital spread spectrum technology to provide clear, accurate reception with less interference than traditional 2.4 GHz and 900 MHz phones. Caller ID/call waiting compatible, the phone displays caller information on both the base and handset LCDs; it has a 50-number caller ID memory. A separate 50-name-and-number phone directory helps you keep track of important contacts.

                    Handset-to-handset call transfer allows you to route incoming calls to any handset registered to the system, while three-way conferencing lets you communicate with multiple parties at once. An intercom feature provides a way to communicate between handset locations, and a global page/handset function lets you speak with all handsets at once.

                    You can select among eight ring tones and 12 musical ringers, while the supplied audio patch cord allows you to record custom ring tones. Speakerphones on both the base and handset combine with headset compatibility to provide a number of hands-free communication options. Additional features include flash, redial (last 10 numbers), hold, and mute.

                    The NiMH battery provides up to eight hours of talk time and up to five days on standby, while a low-battery indicator lets you know when to return a handset to its charging cradle. A new message waiting indicator alerts you to any new voice mail messages (requires subscription to a fee-based service), and handset and speakerphone controls allow you to adjust volume levels. The i5853 also comes backed by a one-year limited warranty.

                    2 out of 5 stars Ok Phone...HORRENDOUS customer service.......2005-09-23

                    The i5853 is ok. The appearance is excellent not too many phones look this cool. BUT...There are what I consider to be three major problems, four if you count the customer service.
                    1. The caller ID stores the numbers like a cell phone without the number '1' to call long distance, so if you find the number in the caller ID and want to call back at the touch of button, that will not happen, you must dial the whole number manually to include the '1'.
                    2. The reception seems good, but there is a definite echo in the headset and can be quite annoying, a little surprising that they would design a major aspect of the phone operation like that...there are many complaints posted on the internet about this.
                    2. One of the best features is that a spare set of rechargeable batteries can be placed in the base set and will power the phone for a while if the power goes out or used as replacements for a handset. This feature seems to work, but you must use and buy at additional cost the Vtech batteries even though the manual says any NiMH at 1.2v. If you put anything but Vtech batteries in the base set the unit gives you a warning that you placed alkaline batteries in even if you didn't which makes a light on the base flash VERY VERY bright and non-stop, which is really disturbing if you use in a bedroom. The batteries from Vtech are NiMH, 1.2v, 1400mah. I could not find 1400mah and put 2200mah in, maybe the phone can tell the difference? The batteries do work, but again, they give a warning and the annoying flashing light.

                    I called the customer service/tech line to resolve the battery issue 4 times over 2 weeks. All can say about that is I hope English is not your only language and you can handle dealing with rude idiots that have no clue about why they are working there or their own products. They do however seem to know how to lie quite well when they do attempt to communicate. I can not state enough how HORRENDOUS the customer service at Vtech is. I am trying to be nice about this, but I would have liked to express this in expletives. Anyway if you get lucky and can find at working phone for cheap ($50.00 or under) then maybe, but never again for me. I took a chance on Vtech and lost. Good luck to anyone buying anything from Vtech.

                    4 out of 5 stars Great features and good phone - An excellent buy.......2005-08-02

                    I was looking for a cordless phone with a speaker that wasn't in the handset. I didn't want an answering machine since I have voicemail through my local provider. I searched high and low and found only two phones like this. The V-Tech is a good phone. It has a speaker in the handset AND in a small speaker the handset sits in. I like that there is also a dial pad. The caller ID is great and when I have messages, the phone has an indicator light, even though the message isn't stored in the phone itself. My only complaint is the sound quality. It is good and more than acceptable, but it would be better if I could manually adjust the bass and treble (the phone does this automatically per call).
