I have a brother DCP-117 before this and it was brilliant, had it for years then went on holiday came back and it just didnt work anymore, think it was the waste tank.
Then i went a bought this heap of junk. but as its only used for printing packing slips and not much else it will do.

same as my two - 5910dw's :rolleyes: - if you read back some posts, i,m just BACK from pc world last week with my other non sub brother 5910, that will be the 3rd one to go back for paper jam in LESS than 1yr !
i was then looking for an epson workforce instead of this brother - they had none in stock...only the brother 6510dw....payed the difference and took it, cause i needed it for that nights work
i have the whatever happens warranty with the shop so not to bothered, its just i was in the middle of orders AGAIN, it decides to go.....you can actually here when its gonna go.....the first 2 sheets of sub paper went in with a little funny noise, not the usual smooth noises ( trust me you get to know every little noise these things make), i said, NO, surely not ? - loaded in my my next sub paper....creak, moan chug chug...DONT YOU DARE YOU PIECE OF.....ARGHHHHH - JAMMED

- wheres my baseball bat - if it wasn't for the warranty, it would be in pieces by now
and i,m really starting to get a complex going into this shop with these printers when they break down....every time i ask a different guy - do you get these printers back often ?, no not at all sir:redface:, you must be unlucky...NO, YOU DONT SAY ?
