Works as expected
Date:April 13, 2013
By Anonymous
from South Florida
It is a good product for the price. I was able to scan 250 documents in a couple of hours because of the auto-feed capability.
I bought this printer for two reasons:
1. I wanted an auto feed scanner/fax machine.
2. I needed to replace the drum on my HL-5370DW Brother printer, and it was "cheaper" to buy a new machine.

I have only two complaints:
1. The paper tray could be a little larger.
2. The sound that the printer makes sounds a little cheap; it does not sound as solid as my HL-5370DW which I love.

WORST PRINTER EVER BOUGHT
Date:March 15, 2013
By MAMATWO2
from WICHITA FALLS, TX
THIS PRINTER WAS NOT WHAT IT WAS HYPED UP TO BE. WILL ONLY PRINT ONE ENVELOPE & IF YOU TRY TO PUT MORE THAN ONE ENVELOPE IN AT A TIME, IT WILL CAUSE A JAM. IT IS ALWAYS SHOWING A PRINTER JAM WHEN THERE IS NOT ONE, HAVE TO TURN THE PRINTER OFF & RE-START TO GET IT TO WORK PROPERLY. WILL NEVER PURCHASE A BROTHER PRODUCT AGAIN. I OWN A BUSINESS & IT TAKES ME TWICE AS LONG TO PRINT ENVELOPES FOR OVER 250 CLIENTS.

some good some bad
Date:February 15, 2013
By andya
from Georgia
I use the individual paper feed for printing checks. I have 2 of theses printers and both do not feed straight. If I load check to the paper tray they work fine but almost never feed a single straight. I have owned other Brother MFC and they worked fine. Brother fell down on the job when designing this machine.

nice machine
Date:February 13, 2013
By Suitedup07
from Lawrence, NY
I have to say the machine works great...nice faxes, copies, scans, etc..There are minor things I do not like, for example, the display is dark, even when the brightness is on full, the menus are limited and it is a little loud; but it does get the job done

Great so far!
Date:February 4, 2013
By pollykate
This machine outperforms itself so far. It does all that I would wish for and wanted in this size printer. It is economical, scan function is great...only one small recommendation...when I print #10 envelopes, it doesn't spit them out, you have to reach in...

MFC-7460DN Learning all about it
Date:January 8, 2013
By jthebb
from Iowa
Appears to be a fine machine. Have not had it long enough to learn "all about it." There is so much to learn but not a surprise with a machine that has these capabilities. I did struggle with the scan device and finally decided to be satisfied with just using Xsane from my computer. I also have a HL-2170W in another setup.
Suggest this is about the only machine needed for home work.

Disappointed
Date:December 31, 2012
By rbjb
from Indianapolis, IN
The drivers for scanning in Windows 8 are not available as of 12-31-12. This feature is very important to me. Your tech person gave me a work-around, but your product is not/was not ready to sell into a market where Windows 8 is being sold on PCs.

Paper problem after printing
Date:December 30, 2012
By Suzie
I am returning this product, and will receive a replacement - same model number. Every time I print, on both Laser paper and Multipurpose paper, the paper curls slightly and leaves a white line about 1/3" wide all along one side of the paper. Since I print out documents which need to be professional in appearance, I cannot use this machine. I am really hoping the replacement will be better as I did a lot of research on this particular model before deciding to purchase it.

Great Network Printer
Date:December 30, 2012
By GMAN765
from Columbus, Ohio
Works as advertised. Excellent network all-in-one machine. If your looking for a black and white laser this would be the one. Good software interface, easy to use, excellent print quality. You won't be disappointed with this machine.

No Legal Scan to Email
Date:December 24, 2012
By Somer
from Western North Carolina
My main complaint with this product is that the scanner does not cover legal documents when I scan to PC. Therefore, when scanning to email, the legal sized pages are cut off.
Otherwise, the print quality is good and the speed is okay. I like the fact that the paper tray holds 250 sheets.

Cautious Optimism
Date:December 22, 2012
By Norman
from New York, NY
I can't give a meaningful review since my MFC-7460DN still doesn't have the updated Brother drivers installed. That download is supposed to be available in early January.
The functions that I do have, printing and faxing work fine. The print quality is excellent.
The machine is much noisier than my old MFC-7420, which I had for a number of years and was very happy with. I only replaced it because Brother was not going to provide updates to accommodate Windows 8. The noise is a bit disconcerting.

Quick and Easy
Date:December 22, 2012
By Muscles74
from Ronan, Montana
Have only had the copier for a few days, but love the quick response from my computer to the printer and the remarkable speed that it prints. I have a colored copier and the 7460 both hooked up to the computer, so can select which printer to print black and white or color. It works great, and saves me having to purchase the more expensive black ink cartridges for the color copier.
