Customer Reviews:

Great printer/copier/fax--weak color scanner [Posted on 2006-02-28]
I got a great deal on this refurbished multifunction laser printer and am mostly very happy with it after a few weeks light use. It has the features I wanted (except duplexing which was another price jump up), but I honestly can't say I've put it to a real test yet.

One of the critical performance issues for me is quietness in standby mode and brief lag time in powering up to print. I'm very satisfied on both counts. Scan quality is my only real complaint.

Print quality and speed are good and Brother's Postscript emulation seems to do an excellent job of printing from Adobe InDesign and Illustrator. Copying and faxing functions perform as expected, although the document feeder has tried to eat a few slightly curled/crumpled originals.

My only disappointment is in color scanning capability/quality. In my brief and admittedly less-than-thorough testing, color scans are practically unusable-too high in contrast with blown out highlights and no detail in the shadows. My test scan was extremely noisy, mottled gradations, and excessively saturated colors. I don't know whether the scanner has inherently poor quality or is just hobbled by very limited software that offers far too few controls. I'm going to look for third-party software before completely writing off the scanner.

Despite the scanning flaws, the price was right and I'm still happy I bought the printer.

Great product owned two of them.. [Posted on 2007-01-25]
I purchased a brand new MFC-8440 1 yr ago and continue with excellent usage. As my business grow, I needed another one so I thought let try the Remanufactured one and see if it is worth the price compare to a new one. So far i had it for 2 months with no problem. Work just like new!

Overall, it great. the only thing I wish it had network capability. Hey, can't have it all

Brother MFC-8440 [Posted on 2007-02-23]
For it's price, just over 240 bucks. I am VERY pleased with this multi-function printer. The first one fell off the desk when the desk collasped. After this the right side of the control panel stopped working but I could still use the printer from the PC controlled "Control Center". I ordered another reconditioned unit which again is just perfect.
