Customer Reviews:

Power-Guzzler.......2007-03-10

I returned the machine immediately when I discovered that the powerful lamp (probably 650 Watts) used to scan documents was going to be on ALL THE TIME, instead of lighting up only when needed (as, for example, with the Brother All-in-One I have been using). The so-called energy-saving switch only doused the tiny console lights. Since it was going to be my fax machine it would have been on 24 hours a day. Even had that not been the case, even if I were just going to use it as a printer during office hours, I would not have kept it. I had already returned an HP unit purchased at a local store for the same reason (with HP at least, you could reduce the factory setting for the time the lamp stayed on, unless reactivated, from 8 hours to 2 hours.) I find it unconscionable that in this time, when there is finally some recognition for the neeed to conserve power and preserve the environment, that these manufacturers should indulge in such energy wasting practices. Shame on them!

misleading features.......2007-03-01

we got this for a small office and were excited to have it on the network for our scanning and faxing needs, not until the package was opened and the users manual was downloaded did we find out that the machine does not support network scanning or faxing. now it is just a copier. that part works as it should, but it'disappointing that the rest does not suit our needs.

Great Multi-Function System.......2006-08-29

I recently purchased the MF5770. The cost of inkjet cartridges and the solid reviews led me to a laser-based system and this one in particular. While setup was not as intuitive as it could be I encountered no problems getting the system up and running in short time. Although the driver installation looks like Network OR USB, the network option covers both. I can print and fax from any computer on my network and scan from the one I've connected via USB. So far a great system for my needs.

If the scanner was only network ready..........2006-03-30

I purchased this machine about a year ago for our office. It was a little cumbersome to install and I sometimes get an error in printing which requires me to unplug and replug in the USB cable but in all, we have been very happy with this machine. It truly is a "workhorse" in our office. It prints extremely quickly and faxes well. The scanner is not network ready, so in order to scan you must have the machine hooked up through USB to a pc. Not the end of the world but it would be much better if it was network ready for scanning. After my experiences with many MF machines, I would definetely recommend this machine.

Setup Nightmare.......2005-11-11

Though highly reviewed for its attributes, this product comes out of the box with built-in ulcers for the hapless owner. The documentation seems to have been translated from japanese, with clumsy syntax and word usage. The setup CD offers the choice of network or USB, not allowing for the use of both in this device with a USB-only scanner. I was plagued with an alarm bell and flashing LCD error message the first time I turned it on that prevented printing, was not described in the troubleshooting guide, and required tech support to unravel. While I can now print, the setup of scanner and copier have so far frustrated my best efforts. We all by now have purchased and setup enough complicated devices to know that careful engineering makes such ordeals unnecessary. The bottom line: if you are a glutton for punishment go ahead and order one of these, but buy the antacids first.
