    Compact Functional All-In-One Ink-jet

    By James  Oct 25, 2004 | 23 out of 24 found this Brother MFC-420CN review helpful

    Pros: Compact size, Network interface, xD, et al printing, Large ink cartridges, fax compatable with ans machine

    Cons: Slow printing, copying, typical cryptic fax tree menu

    I sought out this new offering of Brother because of Network connectivity, and the small size. It takes half the space of my previous All-in-one Xerox workcenter, and the fax does not scream at every caller on my line--it just sit and waits for an ...incoming fax tone to respond ("manual" mode), then comes to life--even if you pick up the receiver (upstairs), and it even ignores my answering machine. Very Slick! It connects to my computer via USB2 AND network cable, and it can allow faxes to go to the computer instead of printing. For $150, this is a bargain. So far I have no paper jams or problems. Note that there is a limitation of 10 pages in the copy/fax paper feeder. But for home use, this answers my needs RIGHT ON!I had a little trouble registering at the site (Sunday Night)--it locked up without entering me--but I'll try later. Read more Less

    A Great All-In-One for the SOHO

    By Gerry Lagasca  Nov 5, 2004 | 14 out of 14 found this Brother MFC-420CN review helpful

    Pros: Very Good Quality, Tons of Features plus Affordable

    Cons: Software is not that great but will do.

    I bought this at Staples for $149.00 last month. Works great as a printer using either color or bw. I will not use this for printing photos though. I use my Canon i850s to do that. Scanner works great with good quality. Used scanner from the button a...nd my pc. Have not tried scanning photos but have tried publications with images. Images turned out fine. Made very good copies in both color and bw. Results where almost identical copies. Color just a bit lighter but still good. Sent many fax documents in legal paper using top feed. Scanned as many as 30 pages to overseas. Used "Overseas Mode" which helps when line is choppy but still got cut-off after 20 pages. Lots of memory. Connected printer through my wireless router using ethernet. Installed drivers/software in 2 pcs and 2 wireless laptops. Easy installation in PC's with XP and 2000 using ethernet. Needed to re-install drivers/software in one laptop because of some problems with wireless connection. Used Memory Stick slot once to retrieve photos and it worked fine. Can't insert more than 1 memory card/sitck at a time. Manual is easy to read. Overall, I'm very satified with the purchase. Read more Less

    The Brother MFC-420cn is a good multifunction for easy digital photo printing, but it's too limited for heavy workloads. Read more

    Brother MFC-420cn

    With relatively slow performance and a 100-sheet paper capacity, the Brother MFC-420cn is aimed at users who don't print a lot of pages. But it offers maximum functionalityprinting, scanning, faxing, and copyingin a minimal amount of space and at a minimal price. Read more
