Multifunction Scanner/Faxer/Copier

Strengths: Scans are good, copies are covienient.

Weakness: Slow usb connection causes high speed usb hub to slow down, along with all other attached usb devices. odd placement of usb cable port.

I bought this multifunction device because I wanted a convenient copier and a new(er) scanner. I am very happy with the copies, as I can create both black/white copies as well as color copies. If you look at the picture, the smoke colored plastic top swivels up and out, exposing a multi-paper feed slot for the scanner. If you have ever had to scan a bunch of documents with a flat-bed scanner, you...

Brother MFC-5460cn Color Photo Inkjet All-in-One...

Strengths: This printer does all. Perfect. Wire/wireless networking is a plus.

Weakness: Dull color copy/printing

I bought this to replace my HP Deskjet F380 all-in-one, but the HP I own had no network interface, and fax feature. For several computers at home, I was really tired to change the printer usb connection all the time, so I bought this one for very good price, I have used for 20 days, and I absolutely love it, it was easy to install and networking, and printing quality was great. I haven’t used...

Decent All-in-One

Strengths: All-in-One unit, networkable

Weakness: Not great on photo printing

Easy to setup and use. Networking portion is fantastic. Print quality is good overall. Only lacking in photo printing department, but that's not this printer's main purposes. It's a small office work horse.

MFC-5460CN -- Good Choice

Strengths: Easy to Use

Weakness: Loading of Paper and need of very soft handling

Really good one for the home purpose.Printing quality is very nice. Copier is working fine as expected. It can be used as the Card Reader. It is a very good option. Happy to buy the porduct.But we need to handle very carefully.

Exactly what I need

Strengths: perfect All-in-One printer. Price are good too

Weakness: not very good on photo

I really need an all-in-one for my small home-office. This one do job well, in very good price. Ink are cheap too. In general, it is good for home or small business, but not very good for photo and fast printing

Handy tool for a home office

Strengths: All-in-one coupled with an ADF makes this a handy little gadget. Has multiple color toner vials so you only replace what color has depleted its reservoir.

Weakness: For word processing documents, I like the laser printer better, but as cheap as they are nowadays that is not a big deal.

Great-Valued Multi-Function Printer

Strengths: Great set of features (including in particular Ethernet network interface and built-in print-server) at a very affordable price.

Weakness: No external paper feed. Color print appears a bit dull. Software installation choice somewhat confusing.

I bought this printer (to replace my previous all-in-one printer Canon MP390 whose print-head drive solenoid disappointingly went dead after less than 2.5 years of service!!!) at less than $110 after instant rebate. It has all essential features one can possibly want from a printer under $150. I found its Ethernet interface and built-in print-server function especially useful as it allows me to...

A good home office printer but not a good photo...

Strengths: All functions you needed are here, FAX, Color/Black Copier without PC, Printer , BEST of all it is network ready.

Weakness: Photo paper loading is very inconvienant. Photo quality is not as good as a real photo printer.

In summary: It is very versatile with all function in one. However it sacrifice the photo printer quality. As a home office printer , it could not beated at this price range. But if you need a VERY good photo printer, it is NOT as professional as a real photo printer. Original ink come with printer run VERY quick. Will seek high capacity ink if I could find.

Easy set-up and operation

Strengths: Reliable operation after easy set-up. Feature-wise, I like the approx. 30-page ADF and the flat-bed scanner.

Weakness: Slow print speed.

I bought this printer after having good luck with another Brother printer. I got essentially the same features in the MFC 5460CN as in my previous MFC 3360C, but the flat-bed scanner of the 5460 allowed me to get rid of my stand-alone scanner and free-up some desk space. However, I do miss the handset of the 3360; a minor inconvenience. The paper tray is a little cumbersome but paper feed is...
