Comparison with Brother LS2125i: Is the Brother LS2125i anyway better than this model?

I think the biggest difference is the 4-step buttonholer on this machine and the 10 stitches versus the one-step buttonholer and 25 stitches on the 2600. The stitch length, width and thread tension are also preset for you on the lower end model. It's worth the $16 for the high end model because 4-step buttonholer is a pain and requires a lot of patience. Also, if there is no stitch or thread tension adjustments you can make yourself, you are stuck trying to work around problem materials on the machine without any way of adjusting the machine.

Yes. I replaced the Brother cartridge with the Cartritech model which is supposed to get 2600 pages of product and so far it has worked very well. If I get the 2600 pages of reproduction I will be very happy.

the printing on the bat 200 is of better quality and it looks like the same product except the next generation. I modified my 168 as completely closing it put pressure (over extension on the internal spring). Just my view but the later model is has some changes that I modified mine with. ( Engineer not a writer. )

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.

It's not better. The quality is far below the different Brother models that I have used. Qwerty keyboard, yeah, OK- except no comma and no ampersand. If I were going to leave something off of a keyboard this is not what I would choose. Better than no "e" I suppose, but not by much.

I never found out as I could not get it to print at all. In addition to not printing, it would not scan or fax and the software/instructions were unintelligible. After fighting with it for three days, I returned it and replaced it with a Brother MFC-7860 DW. The Brother is more expensive, but it took only seven minutes to set up (wirelessly, too!) and it works perfectly. Maybe it was me and not the Canon, but the Brother was so easy......

Sorry can't help you out there. I return the machine because it didn't work out for me. I found that the Samsung is to complicated for the user and the Brother are much easier and their online support is wonderful.

Davis , it seems tn360 will work for you as I looked up your models number hl2140. my other brother machine used the tn360 and I never had a problem and there are just as comprable prices .Hope this helps !

Sorry, don't know. I really did not like the software, so I dumped it for a Brother DS700d sheet fed scanner with Page Maker software which are far superior and costs less.

I forget the model number of the toner, but it is not the one rated for the larger number of copies. It is the smaller of the Brother cartridges. I went ahead and ordered the later toner but haven't opened it yet. We don't do a ton of printing.

The HL2280DW has copy and scan capabilities, which were additional features that I needed in a printer. If the copy/scan features were not desired then I would have purchased the HL2270DW. These two printers appear to be the same with exception of the copy/scan features. I don't know of any real advantages of purchasing one over the other. It's all about the features that one requires in a printer.

Here's another "thank you" for the information. I just received my new Brother MFC-9840CDW and bought the recommended SODIMM from OEMPCWorld. Everything worked fine, right out of the box. Fantastic!

Sadly (if you're on a budget at all), the next step up I believe is the Brother 1250...a gorgeous machine, but runs about $1700. Not available at Amazon; I think you have to buy it from a dealer. I want exactly the same thing, but not to spend that much on a hobby I only do once in awhile. I ordered the Singer Futura XL-400 because it just is TOO tempting despite the reviews....has large embroidery area and some nice regular sewing stitches....guess what? The machine CROAKED the first time we tried to embroider with it! My husband is a computer guy and I'm experienced at embroidery...we read the directions carefully..... VERY disappointing, I should have believed the reviews here on Amazon....would not recommend that machine, no matter how tempting it looks! Getting customer service from Singer is nearly impossible, too. Hope you find this helpful....wish Brother would come out with something as dependable as the se400, but with 5x7 capabilities at the lower price!
