I''ve had the Brother MFC 4350 for 7 years and loved it. I finally decided to upgrade to a new Brother MFC 7225N. The printer installed very easily. The printer quality is very good and overall, I think I''m happy with the purchase. Two pet peeves:

1) The machine is much louder than the MFC 4350 when its printing. If you have home office, you probably can''t print a large document and talk on the phone at the same time because of the noise.

2) The top and the bottom of the printed pages curl up. For home use, this will probably be ok. If you are printing proposals or official business-related stuff, this may annoy you. (not as professional looking)

I wanted an all in one laser unit that was as small as possible. Although it has scanning capacities I don''t need this since I also have a full size scanner. The print and faxing capabilities are good as I have the unit connected via Ethernet to Win Vista and Mac OS 10 (latest version) computers. I used the Brother install disks for each computer. At one point I lost the network connection on the Mac and had to use the USB port. Later I lost the Vista network connection. I went back and tried setting up the network connections on both computers again and was successful. For whatever reason the Mac couldn''t see the printer at one point and then later it could. With the Win computer I just deleted the original Brother icon and Vista found it the next time. At this point I am very pleased with unit.

I replaced an earlier version of this fax that lasted for 6 years but the rollers had worn out from heavy use. I use it as a stand alone fax but I could print from my computer if I had to. Its a good sturdy fax.
