Is there a difference in the quality and speed of the printing compared to the mfc-j825 model?

I sent the printer back was not happy with the quality of the pictures. Would not connect to network. I purchased a canon instead and am very happy with it especially because it prints up to 13x19. Very nice printer.

See this: http://www.office.xerox.com/latest/OPBFS-13.PDF for an apples to apples and useful cost analysis between their lasers and solid ink printers. Note: The Phasers are laser printers while Colorqubes are the solid ink printers. The 8870 model which is aimed at higher volume shops has a higher up front cost but significantly lower ink costs than the 8570. As far as I could tell, they are basically the same printer with a few minor differences. This may no longer be correct or I might have missed something... I have had two of these over the years, the latest one is significantly better in every way and does not waste as much (very little) ink. The ink "qubes" are not interchangeable between models are country specific and foreign ink will not work. Off brand ink may or may not work well. I had a problem (with the older model) after several years with clogged nozzles which I attributed to non OEM ink. As a side note, the yellow ink from Xerox is bright yellow, the off brand that I thought would be high quality was a dirty yellow almost orange color and it was more brittle resulting in broken cubes.

I had previously answered with details of the Artisan 50 but was not aware of the L100. Curious, I started searching for information. I found the L100 mentioned only on European sites; I'm not sure it's even available in the US. One Indian review I read panned the printer, labeling it "expensive for a single-function printer, noisy and slow."

It is about the same to a little less. I think it is more efficient than the 2610xi which is similar all in one machine and my wife copies a lot of articles and recipes on the new printer so it is very effective in producing images from a wide variety of sources. I am not sure what printer you are comparing to but the two others we have used were using more ink than the Envy 120.

Part of that is warm up, but I have had no complaints with the speed it prints. I haven't personally timed the pages, but it feels about right or even faster.

Raj,Difficult to say, I replace the initial slight supply proceeed in the printer when purchased and bought a DR-420 to provide me with a large quantity of copes when the refill expire but it has not. Thats been close to a year ago and i use it as my desk copier and print page after page when I want a hard copy. Bottom line is that it is certainly worth the price.

Brother MFC-J280W Printer but it may end-up messing up your printer like it happened to mine. Miy machine was no longer able to detect the yellow ink cartridge color, so it would no longer print.I will never use any compatible ink cartridges if not only original ink cartridges.

I only own the 2540, but just scanning the specs, it seems as if the 2542 is faster. I can't see any other notable difference: both offer wireless connectivity and the ability to do basic printing jobs as well as scanning and copying. They use the same inks, and the printing & scanning resolution seems similar. You may want to ask HP what the differences between them are (vs whether they are basically the same device). The paper feed on the 2542 may be different? But I can't tell without having one here, and suspect that many others out there own either one or the other but not both, and so may have a tough time addressing this question.

To add to the other answer: I don't often print 20+ pages at a time, so if I get them in minute or two, it doesn't matter much to me. The main feature I'm really jazzed about is how fast the first page comes out. Considering the price for the machine - I'm very happy with it!

From my research the duplex was the only difference. Just a warning that if you want high photo quality this is not the printer to get.

It appears to me that the XL 200 has a longer print time compared to 200 cartridge. I haven't used the Epson for a long period of time compared toLexmark or HP printers but there is a difference.

Yes, it does! I purchased this exact item, have the mfc-j430w, and I love it. The only bit of trouble I had was in getting the little plastic arm into the slot just right so the printer thought the door was closed. It has to be just right, and in the perfect place, so keep trying if you don't get it the first time; it does work. But other than that, I plan to install this on every printer I have in the future. I will never go back to individual cartridges!

I have an Epson WF-2540, so it's close. I'm OK with them so far. I've noticed a slight difference in color intensity, but very slight. I got this bunch for less than half of what it would cost to get the Epson make, and pictures come out fine. What's annoying is the error messages the printer sends out after the cartridges are installed telling you they're not authentic Epson, but but then things go quiet. The printer was reasonably priced, but it would cost about two sets of Epson refills and you paid for it again. That's not worth it to me. I will shop around again if I need to, but I will buy these again if the price is right. Hope that helps. I have an Epson WF-2540, so it's close. I'm OK with them so far.

I do not know, haven't exactly gotten past the 1000 mark but as the others say it is cost effective and it fits in the printer that it was listed as compatible with. Also the quality I haven't noticed much difference between the two though I will have to say I did not do an in-depth comparison between the two but it's probably got 200 prints so far.

By default, the printer warms up and goes into "normal" print quality mode, not "best" (what you want) or "fast" (poor/draft quality). It does this for many reasons, primarily to save ink since most people print typical documents containing mostly text, not graphics. You can always change the printer's quality from normal to best by going to: Devices & Printers -&gt; Brother mfc-j6520dw -&gt; Adjust Print Options. If you mostly print images that require hi-resolution (lots of ink), you can set "best" quality as your default.

I have a Brother model MFC-J270W and I've had no trouble, unless it sits for long periods, then you will need to do a manual Ink "Clean" on the printer menu ............. GDW
