Buy it, buy it, buy it!,
I’ve worked in technology for over 36 years. I’m picky as hell. I’ve been looking for a new all-in-one (AIO) printer for a while. I’ve tried Epson, Canon, Lexmark. I never tried Brother. I saw this printer in OfficeMax where it was on sale before Amazon for $99 and picked it up. The quality and the price of the inks looked great, the features were killer, and I needed the scanner because I often scan documents and photos, as well as use DocsVault to have a paperless office. I figured I would return it if I didn’t like it. No harm, no foul.
Man, was I surprised. The quality of the construction is terrific. It has a small footprint and low noise. The paper tray combines holding the paper and providing the output tray. It also will store a stack of 4×6 photo paper ready to go. All you have to do is push a lever to move the photo paper into position. The tray will extend as well for legal size paper. The paper stops on the output tray and the fax tray are a little flimsy, but I can live with it.
The document feeder is smooth as silk. The touch screen removes the need for endless buttons by transforming itself based on the selected functions. The driver and software is excellent.
The printer functions both wired and wireless and has the usual fax functions.
Now for the gravy! There is an iPad and iPhone app that allows you to scan DIRECTLY TO YOUR iOS DEVICE! It works flawlessly. The quality of the scans are beautiful. In addition, there will be a FIRMWARE UPDATE in JANUARY 2012 that will enable the printer for AIRPRINT! SCORE!
All of that in a brand new released model for $99! What is Brother thinking? I don’t care. I love this device and I highly recommend it. The output is excellent. It prints very quickly in draft mode and does a great job of saving me paper with duplex. It is serving all of our devices in the house. Best I’ve seen yet!
What have you got to lose? Try it! If you hate it, return it. No harm, no foul.

|Just purchased the Brother,
I figure it is my time to give back and make some reviews. I purchased this printer today from Staples. The unit looks sleek, appears to be simple to use, and of course has all the bells and whistles. I did call customer service for clarity on the owner’s manual direction which is very difficult to understand. After numerous department prompts, I was advised I would be answered in the next order received; my time estimate was 14 min. After 25 minutes of being on hold, I gave up. I would suggest ditching the owner’s manual and go right to the CD. The CD worked perfectly and led me thru the process step by step. The only difficult part was locating the USB connection on the printer for wireless capability (you have to lift up both the copy and main lid) I called Staples and there service tech had a bear of a time locating the above connection. It printed the first time, no paper jams or issues.

|MFC825DW – So Far, So Good!,
I was searching for a replacement of my HP C309g-n which was a worthless printer if you want to print wirelessly (don’t buy the HP C309g-n!)
Oh! About the Brother… I just purchased it today and had it installed and working without a glitch.
The HP (did I mention it consider it worthless for wireless printing!) would take 10 minutes to print a single page, but this printer handled it with ease! What a relief!
I tested duplex (two-sided) printing and it worked flawlessly. That piece of crap HP would pause for 30 seconds to “dry” the ink before printing on the back of the printed front. The Brother doesn’t skip a beat. BAM! Both sides printed!
This printer has the equipment to print on CD/DVDs (that accept inkjet!) So I’ll have to give that a try. I don’t have any reservations about that functionality considering how well it worked on the others.
About build quality, it’s a $90 dollar All-In-One… it’s made of plastic! What do you expect! Get a grip and buy this printer, you will be suprised about the total package!
Word of advice… please, please, please, don’t buy the HP C309g-n to use as a wireless printer, I’d rather you send me the money… I’ll put it to better use!
So far… So Good! No buyer’s remorse.
