My first DCP-110C lasted just over 6 months and was replaced by the newer model DCP-115C. All seemed fine and dandy until around 10 months later started having problems again. This printer is a superb all rounder and creates brilliant pictures WHEN IT WORKS.. Had my first printer not been replaced I certainly wouldnt go for a brother again. I was attracted to it due to the cheap inks available as my last printer a Lexmark (which was simply amazing) was just far too expensive for ink.
The DCP-115C keeps failing every so often and when you are lucky enough to get it working(when its in a good mood) you will be pleased with its results. The main fault I am getting now (again) is with the inks. It wont accept new inks for some reason and I have tried numerous cartridges and searched Brothers site for help yet nothing is working yet again ...
Advantages: Excellent value for money Disadvantages: Flimsy , need to handle with care
headings make finding the relevent pages quick and the straight foreward language and diagrams

I feel however that there are a few disadvantages to this machine.
The first is that the machine has rather a flimsy feel especially the lift up top for the photocopier and scanner which isn't particularly robust.
The second problem is the ink cartridges, these are all individual
ie. a seperate cartridge for black, cyan, magenta and yellow. The cost for ink therefore can be expensive. Brother ink cartridges are not also as easy to purchase on the high street as some other makes although they can be purchased on the internet and i did notice yesterday that tesco has just started to sell the black cartridge for this machine.
A third problem is that the cable to link the printer to ...
Advantages: Excellent print quality. Easy to use and setup, reasonabley cheap to run. Disadvantages: slightly noisy fan when printing.
After my 9 year old multifunction decided to chew paper regularly, I decided it was time to replace it. I decided to look for a cheap laser mutlifunction and after browsing different website, I stumbled across this machine at Inmac in its clearance section. It usually retails at around £138, but being an open box product, this particular machine was a bargain £82. On to the review of the machine......
BOX CONTENTS AND SETUP:
On opening the box you find.....
* The unit itself,
* A brand new full size toner (good for 2,500 pages) rather than a starter toner you get with other brands.
*Manuals and driver software CD.
*Power lead
*Some Free Polystyrene :D
Setting up of the BrotherDCP7010 was very easy. Firstly, decide if you wish to use the parallel port or USB port (cable not included). Then simply load the driver CD into ...

Manufacturer's product description
As multi-function machines move from generation to generation, they look less like printers with scanners stuck on top. Brother's industrial design makes some effort to blend the lines of the two components and pages which eject from the top of the printer section are easy to retrieve from the gap under the scanner.
