There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The materials are a bit on the cheap sign, but not enough to be a negative.
Good:
The install was easy for me, but not for someone older..
The manual is substantial and does help.
Bad:
-Copier sucks if you need to feed the original through the scanner (it's the kind that needs to run the paper through, not the flatbed). It almost never works as necessary and often feeds the paper sideways.
- Paper Jams were common before I really figured out how to do it.
If you do frequent scanning, you really shouldn't get this machine. Only someone who needs the fax needs to get this machine. Otherwise, get a combo with the flatbed scanner.
I have yet to change the ink.
Two days ago the display screen went black, and I have tried many things, unsuccessfully, to get it to come back on. The function buttons do not work either. So now, I can print off the computer, but without the screen or the function buttons I can not scan or fax.
I have "Googled" the problem and evidently my only option is to take it to "my nearest authorized dealer". Since I live in the Caribbean, that would be Houston or Miami! So I am stuck with a non-functioning machine, and a brand new drum and toner cartridge that I bought as back-up.
In addition to the above problems, though the machine has a phone (which is one reason I bought it), it does not have a built in answering device. It makes relatively pale black copies and does not have a flat screen on which to make copies. So forget trying to make copies of your passport or scan anything of bulk. It's also ugly.
So, I am really sorry I bought this machine.
Top reviews from other countries
MFC-7240 there are couple of things I don’t like about it. First, it’s very loud when awake. Second, too bulky. Third, doesn’t have auto double sided print, you’ll have to open the tray and flip the page manually. Fourth, no wifi connection. I bought it for the fax feature. Wanted to return it but I git very busy. Print quality is good.
