Print * * * * *
The quality of the prints is crisp and clean. Since we have the power - these are now nine months - we did not have a paper jam.
Copy * * * * -
The copies are for domestic use in order. For larger amounts, or mandatory high quality I copy prefer to work.
Scanning * * * * -
Scharf of Brother scans only what touches the glass directly. If you put eg his watch it, the dial is already blurred. This is due to the special method, is scanned with, and is probably the same for similar devices from other manufacturers. But books or images it scans sharp. Examples can be found here on Amazon at the set from me scanned pages of the children's book "The little hedgehog and the great gift: sensing, will you?":
Operation * * * - -
Operation is simple and clear for the most part, if you want to scan, but you have to press a very getting used to key sequence.
Toner - - - - -
Points deduction there because toner rip off. All too soon, warns a little window that the toner soon comes to an end. And soon he says: Toner all. The toner, however, is far from all !! Bad that the printer will not print! He is blocked!
Remedy:
After vigorous shaking the toner cartridge, it went by about 100 pages, then was re-closing. Then I glued the small round transparent window ("portholes") on the side of the toner cartridge with firm opaque tape, and he printed again! Yet more than 500 pages came out in first-class quality! Then, the toner was really empty.
UPDATE: Meanwhile, I had also the case that the taping was not helpful. After Prolonged internet research I've found the following tip: on the cartridge side is a square button which is pushed slowly in a semicircular arc from the printer from one end to another. This one must if want to continue printing, and does not help to push back on the other side. How this works exactly, can be found out through search engines.
The toner cartridge that needs this printer, is not a common model. There is therefore no replicas of well-known companies. I have tried a no-name replica, but the quality was poor. Original cartridge is more expensive, but now it prints properly again.
UPDATE: Meanwhile, I've also found replicas with reasonable quality. Pay attention to the reviews.
Except with the toner control, we are very happy with this multi-Funki printer, we would buy it back to us.
