User Reviews about Brother MFC-5890CN Professional Series Color Inkjet All-in-One with Networking and Large-Size Printing
This all in one was recommended by my tech support professional. I can see why. It does everything, and the ethernet connection for the network bypasses the desktop completely so my laptop can print independently of that. The print quality is superb, color and B&W, and I'm still on the ink cartridges it came with - and I print a lot. I love the scanner, although I haven't figured out quite how to use it fully yet. It is a bit difficult, as it will scan each page of a multi-page document as separate docs, which is frustrating. The copier has an auto feed, which is great too. Unfortunately, the fax does not work, but I think that's our connection and I'm going to have the phone company come out and check on that before I complain. It's great for uploading photos, too. I just have two main gripes; setting it up was so frustrating I almost tore out my hair, and there was a horrible mixup with the delivery and purchase. Fortunately, Amazon finally got it straightened out. I love this printer and I'm glad I bought it. -- Awesome machine - everything I needed and then some!
The only problem I've detected is the printer's inability to feed glossy paper properly. If you put in more than 3 sheets of glossy paper, it simply does not feed. -- Glossy paper feed problem
I just got this copier and set it up today. Took two hours and a call to tech support to get it going, but now that it's up and running, I am really impressed. Lots of features for the money, and they all seem to work well. Love the document feeder. Problems reported by other users don't seem to apply to mine. No problem figuring out the paper tray. The black ink prints fine. Someone commented that there was no way to label the quick dials on the fax area, but mine came with an adhesive label for that area.
The main problem I encountered was that Brother has not included drivers for Microsoft 7 on the disk. But they are available for download on the Brother website. And once tech support talked me through that the rest was easy. I'm waiting to see how it does on ink consumption, as I've been told that the print heads clean themselves (i.e. use ink) before each use and there's no option for "use black ink cartridge only" when printing grayscale.
All in all I'm glad I decided on this printer! -- Definitely not "Plug and Play" but a nice little machine.
First printer had mechanical problem. Second & Third printers "printed at 90 degrees to paper axis". (The paper was installed incorrectly).
This is an excellent machine with tremendous capabilities, but you must read all 207 pages manual before you touch it.
[Telephone and on-line help is available, but is of low quality.]
A quick start-up guide would have avoided many difficulties. -- BROTHER PRINTER DOCUMENATAION
