Conclusion: Uses insane amount of ink
Review: This is a nice printer - with one deal-breaker: It uses an insane amount of ink to clean itself!! I print color copies very infrequently as I also have an HP Laser printer on the same network. I use the HP for 99% of my printing (and I don't even use the HP that often!) The Brother MFC 5440 cn cleans itself so often that it uses up cartridges with which I have only made 6 or fewer color prints with!! To add insult to injury, if ONE of the three color cartridges is empty, it won't print a black-and-white page EVEN IF THE BLACK IS FULL!! If I had to do it all over again, I'd avoid Brother printers. They are just too thirsty. Oh, one last thing. I thought if I turned the power off to stop the cleaning (so much for the fax function), that would stop the cleaning and therefore save the ink. WRONG! One has to completely UNPLUG the printer in order to stop the automatic cleaning cycles!!! Evaluation:
Conclusion: Complete garbage- from top to bottom
Review: This is the worst printer I have ever used or seen. The ink just goes into thin air, the printer james, the photos look like crap, and the user interface & software suck. Stay away. Whoever this crappy asian company is, they should all commit hari-kari. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Don't buy this printer - much better out there.
Review: A money pit is right! This printer just isn't worth it. There were at least 3 times where I bought ink and even though I only used the printer 3 or 4 times over the course of 4 or 5 months, the ink was gone and I'd have to buy refills again! It appears the ink must be allowed to evaporate somehow, and furthermore if you run out of one color the whole printer is useless until you refil it! Regardless of whether you're printing in B&W!
Don't waste your money on this; there are much better printers out there. Evaluation:
Conclusion: Great Printer, fax, copier, scanner!!!!
Review: I've had my printer for about 2 years now. It's a Multifunction printer. No need to buy a separate printer, fax, copier or scanner. This does it all!!!! My only complaints are that this printer is slow. This requires 4 catridges and if one ink cartridge is empty then it won't print unless it is replaced. I also notice printer will indicate that a catridge is empty even when the catridge still looks like it has some ink left. I Would recommend this to anyone who has a home office. Evaluation:
Conclusion: HORRENDOUS PRINTER!
Review: In case you don't believe the rest of the reviewers, this printer is HORRENDOUS!!!! Brother has done a great job at creating a scam with their ink cartridges. Hopefully, people have caught on and have decided to ditch this piece of JUNK! My ink cartridges were still semi full when the printer prompted me to change cartridges...like an idiot and because I needed to print, I went to the store and bought cartridges for $50! Way overpriced for the print quality you get from Brother. Shame on Brother for scamming consumers and making such a lousy printer. They may have scammed us once but Brother has shot themselves in the foot by losing many customers. I will never buy any other Brother brand product. Brother has no idea what relationship marketing is, it seems obvious they are just after making the one transaction and not about keeping their customers happy. I bought this because it had a pretty good rebate...a year ago I only paid about $80, still way too much money for this piece of CRAP! So to all looking to purchasing a printer, stick to HP, at least they don't scam you as much with their ink cartridges!
