Brother Multifunction MFC-465CN Printer Reviews

I purchased the Brother Multifunction MFC-465CN Printer because it offered everything I was looking for at a reasonable price.  It also got good customer reviews from several retailer's websites.  My HP printer was a piece of junk, so I was determined to try a different brand and thus, chose Brother.

This all-in-one printer is very convenient since I own my own business.  I can do all the things at home that I used to go to Staples to do in their office center.  I frequently use the printer, copier and scanner, but have never used the fax.  

I find the control panel to be kind of confusing...

Brother Multifunction MFC-465CN Printer is the best unit on the market.  Very easy to connect, use and so many features.  Fax, Copy Scanner, and Printer.  Photo Printing can be done directly from digital camera or flash cards.

Al Ihave been able to do with this printer is copy, scan, and print. The other functions iclude be able to print out pictures in the picture tray and fax. Ihaven't been able to do those functions and now the feeder for the paper doesn't work and I have only had this printer for a year. It has paper properly entered in the tray but it constantly tells me that that there is no paper and won't feed. I am so upset.
