The only way to print #10 envelopes with this machine is to load them manually via the multi-purpose tray. A whopping three-envelope capacity. Then, it mangles them as they are printed. Every one comes out wrinkled and creased. There is no paper tray that holds envelopes, and there is no optional envelope feeder. This is a very dissapointing feature of an otherwise good machine.

The Brother MFC9840CDW has poor quality printing, will not properly print Avery labels and requires access to the rear to change a setting for printing envelopes…a major inconvenience.
Brother will not do anything about a defective design and/or manufacture.

The Brother MFC-9840cdw Color Laser Multi-Function Center with Wireless Interface and Duplex does not print web pages or emails with graphics. It superimposes words over images, truncates images, omits images, and adds numerous line feeds which leads to occasionally 14 pages being printed instead of 2. I tried the most basic pages – my.yahoo.com, http://www.bbc.com. I’m connected using the wireless interface. I haven’t tried using the USB interface since I purchased it for wireless functionality.
When I called customer service they were very unprofessional and defensive. Both the first representative and the supervisor were not well trained in any troubleshooting skills other than repeating over and over again that Brother does not print Web pages unless they were “printer friendly”. I was very surprised to hear this given that any HP printer I’ve purchased over the last 20 years printed any input provided flawlessly. They were unable to tell me how to find out the driver version and download the latest versions. The sad part was they were perfectly fine with me returning the printer. Brother customer service really needs to look into this.

Okay… 21 PPM for color and b/w sounds great but it would have been nice to know…
Caller ID doesn’t work on a phone plugged into this fax machine. So if you like your Caller ID then you are plugging into another jack to know when Aunt Sally is calling and that you will be stuck on the phone for an hour if you answer it. Or you could get a Brother machine that has a handset.
There are a limited number of signal ring patterns that work with this machine. And changing the ring pattern isn’t so hard for the telephone company once you spend 30 minutes on hold and get forwarded 5 places before you find the person that can do it.
If you don’t have a couple of days to get this machine integrated into your home or office there are easier options out there.
Happy hunting.
