Epson AcuLaser CX11NF

closeHey, just so you know ... this post is now about 17 years and 6 months old. Please keep that in mind as it very well may contain broken links and/or outdated information.

Epson CX11NFMy Brother 3820CN multi-function printer fell prey to the dreaded Error 41 that seems to plague Brother machines. Now, in Brother’s defense, they did extend the warranty on my printer from 90 days to 24 months, but that 2 years just ran out in May so I was out of luck.

So I needed to get a new printer/scanner/copier/fax and decided to go laser … and not just regular old laser: color laser! (Ok, technically it was my wife’s idea, but I wasn’t going to argue!)

There’re only a few machines in market that would do everything I wanted to do: color laserjet printing, network built-in (including support for network scanning!), flatbed and ADF, etc. I read bad reviews about Brother’s entry in this segment and personally decided I was done with Brother anyway. My choice: the Epson AcuLaser CX11NF.

This MFC is identical to its cheaper sibling, the CX11N, but adds the fax capability and the ADF. Since it’s a laser printer, its much larger than my old Brother (those 4 toner cartridges have to go somewhere, after all!) but still fits nicely in my home office.

So far I am very impressed the ease-of-setup, printing/scanning speed, and print output of this device. I hope it lasts a little longer than my previous Brother did however (just over two years).
