I've been using Brother lasers for many years and like them a lot - they've seen me through writing two books, among other things. My current machine is a few-years-old MFC-9125CN colour 'laser' multifunction, and it supports scan-to-email (via a built-in SMTP send client) or scanning to a network share. Both of those are gloriously driver-free distro-agnostic scanning solutions :-) Doesn't work for all use-cases, but serves me well for documents, receipts, and the occasional photo. -Chris On Mon, May 6, 2019 at 11:25 AM Lennart Sorensen via talk <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

I agree that Brother laser printers seem to work pretty well. Almost all the laser printers I've bought have been brothers.
I still hold a grudge against their laser printers from 20 years ago. I dealt with one that claimed LJ III compatible, but the margins it had were wider than the LJ III so pages were cut off if you used the driver it claimed you could use. That is NOT compatibility.
So as a result in my mind brother equals junk. :)
The BJC10 is the cause of me having the same opinion of all Canon inkjets.
Probably neither is entirely fair.
