Re: Brother MFC-L5850DW

[Jeff Crosby <jlcrosby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I actually bought a Brother MFC-L5900DW.  It arrived today, replacing a
Brother MFC-8890DW.

The MFC-8890DW was ~10 years old and repair cost was almost the price of a
new printer.  I did nothing to the existing device description and it works
fine as is.
