Unfortunately, the whole thing had a huge hook, because the devices tended extremely in clogs. On warm summer days (room temperature while only max. 24 degrees, and the case was not in the sun or so), the print head could often only a few hours to return. With original ink!
In contrast, the normal cleaning procedures described in this manual were powerless, and even the only achievable thanks to tips for users of "unofficial" support forums intensive cleaning procedures led not always successful.
As just Brother re-entry at this time in the inkjet printer market, I got (first privately, later also in the company) in order, and was beohnt with a lot of saved time and trouble, because even with the cheapest replica inks were the things not to clog to bring, and the printed image was not enough at the level of the Epson printer, but for most everyday affairs.
The initial "teething troubles" of Brother Plastic Bomber (paper feeding and just generally somewhat rickety-looking full-plastic construction) were also improved in subsequent generations, and so we stayed with Brother.
As soon as a replacement for a date now urgently needed elsewhere Brother MFC-J unit forth and had actually intended for this purpose equipment was not available, I gave way to short-term impact on the Epson WorkForce 3520.
And this supposed "emergency solution" turned out to be hit!
* The print image even on plain paper is great text and graphics as crisp as with a laser, and even photo-test prints on ordinary copier paper can be more than excellent. In addition, the photo-print directly from the card (although here used very rarely but if it has to go up fast) when still very ansehnlichem print image really, really quickly.
* The installation, incl. Network Integration, Cloud Print, etc., without problems, especially the configuration of the network scanning to exemplary.
* The thingy has a duplex scanner, ie fully automatic two-sided (!) Documents scan in an orderly QualtiƤt, though relatively slow because of the turning mechanism, but all at a fraction of the price, which you can elsewhere lie down for a device with this capability.
* Workforce 3520 was far faxing over my VoIP connection as well as cope for years no other device.
* Processing and material quality of the base chassis is top, but in need of improvement seems to me to suspend the scanner lid including document feeder, since my previous Brother (MFC-J5910) had clearly solid, boar was also a device "a notch higher".
* And is not yet plugged NIX, even with replica cartridges absolutely zero problemo.
All in all, seems to have been well done his homework at Epson, and what they came up with can really be seen, especially given the price.
And why would I not buy it again?
Not because I was dissatisfied, but because the best is the enemy of good, that is because there is a very small fee to Epson 3530DTWF (white) or 3540DTWF (black).
This is the only minimally larger (same footprint but slightly higher) design with two paper trays. If you often on other formats or paper prints a clear advantage.
