MFC-9450CDN

 

Brother's MFC-9450CDN color laser multifunction printer juggles speed, features, output quality, and design well enough to be a worthy choice for most small offices or small workgroups. The only people it is likely to disappoint are those who need...

Fast; low purchase price Autoduplexing included

Pale, yellowish color prints Lack of detail in color scans

Brother's MFC-9450CDN offers speed, features, and economy along with tolerable shortcomings. It's well worth considering for a small office that doesn't need high-quality color graphics

Brother MFC-9450CDN

 

The 9450 prints flawless text, and can be trusted to print your best text documents, even those enhanced with spot color or graphics.

Great Printer

 

Owned this just over a year. No trouble to speak of. Prints fast, prints good color, nice it has a toner save option (use this most of the time). Double sided printing is great, interaction with computers for scanning is cool. More features than I've used

Software suite's interface is a little heavy and non-standard, but it works

Can not be installed on a print server

 

Do not purchase if you want to install on Windows 2003 Server. This devise has it's own internal print server and some of the most important settings can not be managed via the print server with out installing all the software on every individual...

Has a lot of functionality if you don't need advanced settings

We use a Windows 2003 print server to manage all printers at my location. This device was purchased because it had the ability to be networked serving multiple purposes, i.e. it can be kept in a secure location for specific people to print to. The...

No Duplexing for scanning, faxing or copies

 

The scan to ftp works best with my Samba file servers. I setup two windows 7 64 bit stations with what came with the printer then downloaded the updated full windows 7 (64bit) drivers, the scan to PC feature would work for a while then stop, with the...

Supports windows 7, duplex printing is nice, the output quality and speed are a big improvement over my decade old Tektronix phase 550 that recently died ; The non duplex ADF is not bad, I ran through some random stuff to test it out and it was 40...

After printing my 7th page, I got an error about "No Waste Toner ; To get to the perfectly brand new waste toner, I had to remove the two removable parts above it, the Belt and Drum Units, 3 times to clear out this bogus error message, plus several...

A winner on all points

 

Came to this machine reluctant and skeptic from really bad experience with bottom-of-line Brother mono laser MFC (7820N), which did nothing well (setup, network operations--print, fax, copy--all). But other users & reviews pushed me, Newegg's sale...

Points: easy install (and my network is complex and Norton-walled), well-documented setup that covers most all bases

Not really a con, but a caution: most color lasers are heavy; this one's no exception (75 lbs)

True Network Scanning!!

 

I am buying another for a diff workgroup in my company right now actually.

The basic stuff is all good. Prints swell, faxes swell. But the thing I really like about this MFC, is it lets you scan from an IP. Meaning the scanning function works over, uses TCP/IP. Not the usb like most of these MFC's, or conversely installing...

None. I have had tremendous success with Brother machines over the years (I am an IT sysadmin/Mgr.) Don't know why more printer companies don't do this scan over IP
