forget the guarantee, and the parallel port

  • Pros: paper pack not protruding out
  • Cons: centronics slow, on site guarantee inexistant, pale print in graphics

After a lot of patches and tries from Brother, I had to buy a USB extender because the parallel port will not work properly (and scan did not operate). On-site guarantee means that a person from Brother phone you and tell you to look into your bios (yes!) for some mode. On Corel Draw some parts were not printed. 2 totally different (age, software) machines were tried with the same result. I buy a printer to be able to use it in a ¼ of an hour not a week of fight. The resolution is fine. The scanning is very grainy. Faxing/copying grey pattern is out. Noisy. If shared with your phone, switching the unit off can leave you with no calls. Do not buy it for the parallel port as I wrongly did.
