Negative Positive
Title: Not reliable
Review: The quality of the copies that are produced is acceptable but not outstanding. My older Canon dedicated copier made better quality copies, and was faster. This may be the result of the compromise inherent in a multifunction machine compared to a machine that is dedicated to do one task. What is of concern is that this Brother began to make mechanical noises from its paper path when copying when it was less than 90 days old. On-site service is not covered under warranty. The local authorized service centers want $80 to $90 for on-site service, so the I had the machine taken to an authorized service center, where it is now waiting for parts. The machine will be out of service for at least one week. I am using a flat-bed scanner to do copying in the interim. I have a Brother fax machine which has been reliable, so the break-down of this machine is disappointing. I wonder if this machine will continue to be unreliable in the future. If I had to do it again, I would choose a Canon or HP.
Is the review positive or negative?
