Multifunction Printers - Please reply with your opinons

My wife and I are looking to buy a Brother MFC-820CW.
Does anyone have one of these? If so, what's your opinion of it? Can it in fact print to fax, and receive a fax straight to a computer with out printing it and then scanning it? Also, can the scanner be used with Photoshop (Twain acquire)?
If anyone has one, we would really appreciate your feedback.
On another note, does anyone have a multifunction printer, fax, scanner that is network capable and all the functions work on a Mac?
Thank you!!!!

On another note, does anyone have a multifunction
printer, fax, scanner that is network capable and all
the functions work on a Mac?
Richard,
I have a Brother MFC-7820N that prints black and white laser as I did not need color inkjet printing. It does scan color and has a Twain plug-in for PhotoShop that works. It has direct PC fax send/receive capabilities, but I have not used that as my clients and I tend to e-mail PDF documents. The MFC is connected via ethernet to my wireless router. I found that Brother keeps up with Mac OS updates. I am very happy with this unit.
The unit you are considering has all the features you are inquiring about. My only suggestion is to find out how efficient it uses ink, i.e., are there separate cartidges for each of the four colors, or one cartidge for cyan, magenta and yellow with a separate one for black.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

    Hi, I was able to reformat my iPod and that worked. I read it on one of the threads and I am copy pasting the method below:
    I opened the "My Computer" window and right-clicked on my ipod, and then selected "Format". I select "Yes" to format since I don't have anything on the nano to delete anymore.
    I then Eject my nano from the computer and did a restart while the nano is disconnected from the computer.
    Once Windows finish loading I reconnect the USB to the nano(back of computer) which automatically pulls up iTune. It asked me to name the new ipod detected and created a playlist for that specific ipod name.

    There was a similar question posted before but I couldn't follow the fix - sorry!

    Launch System Preferences and open the Network preference pane. Select your Internet connection from the list on the left (it's the one at the top), and click the Advanced button. In the sheet that opens, select the DNS tab. What are the addresses of your DNS servers?
    Next, select the Proxies tab. Are any of the boxes checked? If so, what are the settings?

  • Please reply with the best laptops that can suit to my needs '̿'\̵͇̿̿\ .....(^o^)

    Hi foks!
    I allready have like 3 or 4 years a HP 530 with this capabillities:
    Windows Vista Home Premium (Service Pack 2)
    2,00 GB RAM
    32 - bit operation system
    Procesor Genuine Intel (R) CPU T2300 @ 1,66GHz 1,67GHz
    The system is classified by it self with the rate of 3,0... so i definetly need something beter
    So I need a new laptop that will aloud me to use the next things as the best they can get:
    1.- I want to use the full potential of programs such as Ableton Live 8 i mean without affecting my mixes, by the CPU Loads, because i like to play audio in multiple and different channels, unfortunately as normal this make my laptop slower.
    2.- It must aloud me to watch movies with 1080p Bluray (Rip or Discs) format and better if it can burn this type of discs.. I normally can only watch this movies on Windows Media Classic - Home Cinema via codecs, and by doing some suitable configurations, this always gets me tired at the end..so the limit size of movies that i can watch are about 15 GB. I actually played one anime movie with 20 GB very, very flawless but as i say.. it gets worse with files that have more capacity and real picture. And i cant watch any bluray Disc even if it is ripped (accessed as a disc by the folders) and they just have like 7GB size... 
    3.- I recently buyed a Seagate External FreeAgent Desk USB 2.0 that has 2 TB and i allready need more space xD..so it will be great for the new laptop to have external connexions for some FireWire400, USB 2.0, eSATA equipement's... and better if the size capacity of the laptop is close to the one of the external Desk i mean about 2TB
    This are extra requirments that i would like to have, but not primarly as the ones before:
    4.- I am a true fan of games, but since this is not a console well... i would like to play some games with real HD quality such as StarCraft 2, Assasins Creed, Battlefield 2, WoW, you know the classic and the newe ones. I actually woud like some laptop that is capable of playing PS3 games (whatever way if it is possible ;P)
    So please write down a list of laptops that have the primary needs that i want to have, and some another list of the ones that may be "better" in capabillities including the videgame functions.
    Thanks

    Go to an Apple store.
    I'm not being facetious - I've owned several HP laptops, and several Apple laptops and desktops. Apple does everything better. The problems I've had with HP and Windows are enormous compared with Apple. My newest Apple laptop is about seven years old, and it is faster than my two year old HP. One of my HPs has been back to the factory three times in one year for repairs. Now it's out of warranty and pretty much junk. The two year old Pavilion (Vista Home Premium 64) is now pretty slow, it works OK but not as fast as my old Macs.
    Every Windows software update has been a problem and generally causes the computer to run slower. Meanwhile every OS X update causes my Apples to run faster. I know you don't believe me. That's OK. No one believes this until they try it for themselves.
    Windows used to be OK, but has been steady downhill since XP. I have bought my last Windows computer ever. Now I am looking at Macbook Pros for my next laptop, since the last one is still going strong after seven or eight years I expect a new one should too. The only thing I've had to do is replace its battery, but just once in seven years.
    Apple support is better, much better. Just look at the Apple user discussions forum and you'll see lots of very informed people willing to help. This board is full of complaints like mine and help seems virtually nonexistent.
    I think HP is dead as a company too. Used to be great, but now they just make cheap disposable computers and printers. Most of their revenue comes from selling overpriced ink.
    So for your questions:
    Ableton Live 8 has an OS X version.
    Blu-Ray: No Apple laptops have a Blu-Ray option but there are plenty of aftermarket internal and external Blu-Ray drives. I think Blu-Ray licensing fees are the problem.
    External drives: All Apple computers have Firewire 400/800 except for the low end laptops. All have USB 2.0. The maximum volume size OS X can handle is 8 exabytes (8 billion gigabytes). Not sure about eSATA. All their internal HDs are SATA drives though.
    Gaming - I'm not a gaming person but I have many friends who started out with questions like yours and none of them ever stayed with Windows. They didn't believe me either, since they all thought once a computer is two or three years old it is junk. After buying Macs they know better now. One friend in particular spent $5000 on what he described as a "custom high end Windows gaming computer", after a year of problems he bought the most expensive iMac there is, for half as much (27" Intel Core i7). He says the iMac is better. After a few months of not using his $5000 windows desktop he practically gave it away.
    So bring your skepticism to an Apple store. Leave your credit card at home though :-)
    Good luck.

  • Kin two m- PLEASE REPLY WITH HELP IMMEDIATLEY!

    I downloaded the Zune software on my computer for the KIN two phone. I downloaded and am using the free 14 day trial. I plugged my phone in with the USB cable, and dowloaded some music. Then i unplugged it, and all the pictures from my cell phone are on thE COMPUTER! and now all the pics on my phone are gone. I tried to download them back on to my phone, but it wont work. PLEASE HELP!!!

    I have a third theory concerning your difficulty with transferring pictures [back] onto your phone.
    I observed a behavior about the Zune software and the Kin that I found a little exasperating.
    I wanted to transfer some video clips through the Zune software to the Kin. As you can see in the photo provided by fisharefriends in the post dated "01-13-2011 11:39 PM" in this thread (link), in the lower-left corner of the screen [while using the Zune software] there is an icon of the phone. During this time, the screen of the Kin says that it is connected to the Zune and that to disconnect it from the Zune that you should swipe your finger.
    After I had transferred a few videos, I wanted to evaluate right away their playback on the Kin and then resume transferring videos through the Zune to the Kin.
    After I swiped the Kin's screen, I could use the phone in a normal manner. Since the Zune software was still running and since the Kin was still connected via USB cable, I was ready to transfer some more videos. But the icon of the phone was no longer in the lower-left corner of the screen of the Zune software -- therefore, the connection between the Zune and the Kin appeared to be severed. After attempting this and that, finally the only way I could think of to restore the connection was to unplug the USB cable and re-plug it. Voila! The connection was re-established.
    But this was a pain-in-the-neck way to do things. So here's what I found out I could do if I wanted to temporarily sever the connection so that I could temporarily use the Kin in a normal manner ...
    - don't swipe the Kin screen to sever the connection; instead, close the Zune application but leave the USB cable plugged in
    - now you'll be able to use the Kin in a normal manner [such as to evaluate the files that you hope were successfully transferred]
    - when you're ready to re-establish the connection between the Zune and the Kin, re-launch the Zune software. It'll detect that there's a Kin [still] plugged in via USB cable, and the icon of the Kin will be in the lower-left corner of the screen of the Zune software.
    So that's a long way of saying that during your attempt to transfer photos, even though the Zune software is presently running on your computer and even though the Kin is plugged in that maybe what the problem is is that the connection has been severed and you will need to unplug the usb cable for a few seconds and then plug it back in to re-establish the connection.

  • My Story. (reply with yours, good or bad)

    Im a perfectionist and ive admired Apple products since the dawn of the MacBook. I was unable to afford anything Apple untill the first iPhone was released. 3 months after owning it I knew I wouldn't want any other phone again.
    In my opinion, the iPhone 4 is 99% perfect, but its that one percent that iritates me. I don't get dropped calls, but i do notice the signal problem every now and then. It doesn't affect the way I use it, but knowing it may cause problems if I hold it differently (for example, in bed, lying on my side) is allways at the back of my mind, this is that one percent.
    Im getting a case soon and that should solve the issue, though im not getting it for that reason. The amount of grief I get from friends about the "Death Grip" (Just because they heard about it on the News), sometimes makes me think about other phones, but not for more than a second. The clarity of the screen, the fluidity and consistency of the software and the amazing HD video, these features combined in such high build quality and a stylish design, no other phone out there comes close. I love my iPhone because of its features, but I couldn't switch to another phone with better features because of the software. Its something that I don't often think about, but benefit from everyday.
    Happy days, Andy

    Shane's Stock Answer #20: Using iMovie to Capture for use in FCP.
    iMovie handles the media differently from FCP, specifically where audio is concerned. So it is not a recommended workflow. Here's why...
    iMovie captures using DV Stream (.dv) standard which does not use timecode. That is a big disadvantage over the way that FCP captures in that you can't go back and recapture the material at a later date if you need to revisit a project.
    The DV/NTSC specification (the one FCP uses) also calls for seperate tracks for audio and video, even if you capture it as one clip. iMovie' DV stream format is muxed audio and video, which means that they are tied together (I can't get into specifics because I ain't no engineer or programmer). FCP is a bit more demanding and captures the seperate audio/video tracks, either in a single media file or as seperate video and audio files. With FCP you could capture video only or audio only because each is defined by the DV specs. while with iMovie you can't.
    Also, if you drop the iMovie footage into the timeline, your will get the RED render bar forcing you to render the footage in order to see it. You can use either QT Pro or Compressor to convert the .dv footage into DV/NTSC in order for FCP to work with it without needing to render.

  • I know its Friday but please reply with some real time scenerios...

    Please let me know the kind of challenges you faced on your current project and the kind of approach you took to solve them...
    Regards by heart
    Bhalout

    Hi Bhalout
    We can say every project is a challenging one .... But one of the case i can explain is .........
    We are getting monthly data from source , but we need maintain that data in ODS according to Weeks.
    Example:
    CompanyCode| Month | Key Figure
    1000 | 200703| 100
    I have split the monthly records in to Weekly record when loading the data in to BW. This is done by selecting Return Table option in the update rules of a Key figure and a writing a start routine..........
    Example:
    ODS/Cube Data
    CompanyCode | CalMonth | Week | KeyFigure
    1000 | 200703 | 200709 |25
    1000 | 200703 | 200710 |25
    1000 | 200703 | 200711 |25
    1000 | 200703 | 200712 |25
    Hope this example works..........
    Some other challanges you can explain about are
    Query Performance issues when go live and you can explain about maintaining aggregates, data load issues such as failing of delta in a process chain .........and how you resolved those issues.
    One example is you can say Users want to see some special characters in the report and I used RSKC transaction to allow those special characters.........
    Mostly this question is a general question and I hope you can get more real time scenarios from sdn.......
    Assign Points If useful.......
    Regards

  • Dear Verizon, I ask that you please communicate with your customers. We know now that if our iPhone 6 Plus hasn't shipped by now, its not getting to us on 9/19. Will you at least update us on a expected ship date? Sincerely, Everyone.

    We call customer service and get told:
    There were no iPhone 6 Plus available for a 9/19 ship date.
    All iPhone 6 Plus are back ordered until November.
    Our system was sold out as soon as the store went live for pre-sale.
    If you ordered within the first 10 minutes, most likely a mid October back order date, otherwise November.
    I would like someone to tell us what is going on with our orders.
