This MX is the 5th Canon printer I own, however, the first MFG. Currently I run still a Brother MFC 5870 in the office, so I can make direct comparisons. This new Canon, is ahead of the Brother in almost all his functions a bit, but he should also, as has passed between the two devices, a development time of about 5 years. The decor is from that of the Brothers, a bit more expensive, but the equipment will reward the effort, with professional features. My Conclusion! Absolute top device for moderate price, but a little brain power should already bring to the institution. Whoever is not willing to deal with the device should continue a separate fax, scanner, printer, copier operate. With best regards W. Schirmer
