Brother USA Reviews

Having had several all-in-one printers, the Brothers MFC-J491DW is my latest. The control panel is fairly complicated. The production is excellent. It's the ink cartridges I have a complaint about. I pay around $60 for a set of cartridges that include all the colors. I found out that it only costs around 23 cents to fill the cartridge. The copier manufacturers, and this includes all manufacturers, sell the copiers at almost cost to be competitive knowing they will make their adsorbent profit on the cartridges. And, all personal copiers are built to fail after so many years. You could fill your own cartridges, but under the holographic label on the cartridge is a small metal plate that has to be replaced if the cartridge is to be reused. The metal plates have to bought on-line from a third party manufacturer. It's a real shame that ALL copier manufacturers pull this same shill games on consumers.
