5 out of 5 stars Awesome Machine!   July 16, 2008
I should have sent this long ago....I have had mine for a year or so, and just got this second one for a family member. This thing does it all, comes with some very handy software, and replacement cartridges do not have to be name brand! Saves me a ton of money. The quality of whatever I print is excellent. It doesn't do all that well with photos, but is certainly good enough for my needs. I would recommend this MFC to anyone over any common inkjet printer by any manufacturer.


1 out of 5 stars Insane ink usage   April 19, 2008
Horrible device. Color inks disappear at an alarming rate (it eats them while idle) and as stated, the printer is COMPLETELY useless if any one color is low or gone. I think I end up paying a dollar a page when all is said and done.


1 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY - DESIGN DEFECTS! - IF YOU BUY YOU WILL REGRET IT.   January 17, 2008
I AM NOT WASTING ANY MORE OF MY TIME ON THIS MACHINE OF WHICH I BOUGHT 5 FOR MY COMPANY ...DO NOT BUY IT OR YOU WILL REGRET IT. I AM DONE WITH BROTHER PRODUCTS.


1 out of 5 stars The 5840CN Sucks   October 23, 2007

This thing goes through ink like water through a sieve. When the software decides you are out of ink the machine is non-functional until you replace the cartridge. The worst is that the cartridges aren't really out of ink. Even if you don't print, the cleaning system uses up the ink. The ink management system must have been designed by a someone in kindergarter, as a kid in elementary school would have done better.

Mine died after 1 yr + 7 days (warranty is 1 year). Print is slow & poor. Scanner worked fine as well as the fax including in TAD mode for an answering machine.
