- Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2012.
Loved my MFC-7820N. This is even better.
PROs:
* Cost per page is very low (see Note 1)
* Printer cost is very low at times (see Pricing below)
* Duplex and Booklet functions save paper
* Browser interface - tons of settings, options, & reports
* Reliability is good
* Energy efficient when not in use (see Note 2)
OKs:
- Ease of use is pretty good. Print, Copy, Scan, Fax functions all work well.
- Toner-low shut-down hassle of previous models is now solved with a menu setting
- Warranty: 1 year
CONs:
- Noise: Fan noise for several minutes; chunk-a-clunk noise while printing. I've learned to ignore it.
- Does not support AirPrint (Apple's protocol for printing from iPhone, iPad)
- - - Alternatives - - -
- Wireless networking version (MFC-7860DW) if you're not hard wired. (average $20 more)
- Non-duplex version (MFC-7360N) (low tide around $100)
- - - Pricing - - -
Price is very bouncy. Low tide is around $138. Amazing deal. There's an "Online Price Alert" that will email you whenever this or any amazon product dips below your target price. Google it. It's nicely done. Or try camelcamelcamel.
- - - Tips - - -
- Toner refill powder such as TN-450 Toner Refill with Reset Flag Gear & Lever by AAAtoner or Laser Tek Toner Refill Kit 4 Pack for Brother TN-450 reduces cost even further.
- - - Notes - - -
Note 1: Cost per page (Toner + Drum) can be...
- 2.3 cents -- Brother toner and drum replacements at average amazon price
- 1.9 cents -- Brother toner and drum replacements at lowest price and extended usage; (3,000 copies per cartridge, 15,000 per drum -- reduced quality at tail end)
- 0.8 cents -- Use toner refill powder at lowest price and extended usage.
Brother Toner TN-450 is $42.50-47.00, 2600 pages. Brother DR-420 drum is $ 69-74, 12,000 pages. When replacing the gougy-priced drum, it's sometimes cheaper to buy an entire HL-2230 or HL-2240 printer on sale for $70 or less (includes DR-420 drum and a 700 page starter cartridge).
Toner refill powder: $8-12 (assume 3000 copies -- average 0.30 cents per copy). Starter cartridge requires Flag Gear Kit, about $3-6 (one time).
Printer comes with drum and 700 page starter toner. Subtracting the value of these, the hardware itself costs about $57 ($138-69-12)
Save more ink (and paper) by shrink-printing (2 to1) when appropriate.
.
Note 2: Standby energy: My old Brother MFC-7820N pulled 7.3 watts on standby. That's $35 to $105 over 5-years (24x365x5 @ 11 to 33 cents per kilowatt hour). This MFC-7460DN draws 1.2 watts on standby ($6 to $18 over 5 years). This printer also has a hard-off switch, which some other printers don't have.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2013For small office low volume printing and faxing this does a nice job. The scanner is very good, however; I have an Epsom that I prefer. Print quality is good, but there are a two big negatives.
1. Printing pre-printed forms, such as checks and invoices is a problem. Paper is inserted upside down and backwards, face down and bottom in first. Because there is no dialog setting to reverse order, you must manually reverse the order of the forms prior to printing,
2. It is tolerably loud and gives off a funky odor while running. The odor dissipates quickly.
We print very little, under 250 pages per month and find this suitable for everyday needs. When we run more than two pages, two sides in quantities over fifty, I send those jobs out. If you run low volume forms, reordering is not a big deal.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2013I bought this installed it into my Windows 7 - worked great!!! Ijust got a computer with Windows 8. Went to their support site to download the drivers - yes, they had them!! Everything worked fine until it was time to hook the USB cord - it read USB composite device. That meant the computer didn't recognize the Brother printer and wouldn't finish updating the device driver. I contacted Brother support via "online chat" (they answered once) and they told me to download and run a program to fix the problem. Did it and still didn't solve the problem. Tried to get back online support 15 times and no one connected to chat. I tried to call them. NO answer. I emailed them and got a "form response" with no follow-up. THEY ARE TOTALLY WORTHLESS WITH THEIR SUPPORT. What good is a printer if you can't get the device drivers downloaded that are sitting right there on their website. What good are they if they can't even provide customer support.
I just went out and bought a Canon Imageclass D560/530. The drivers say they are for Windows XP and 7. I had absolutely NO problems and it runs beautifully on Windows 8.
The upshot? I will NEVER buy another Brother. They are relatively inexpensive but that's because they don't have any support people to pay for.
