Bummer, I’ve been a fan of Brother in the past. Owned two monochrome laser printers that have been great over 10 years of service with not a single paper jam.

Indeed, I had seen so many good things said about Brother on Hacker News that I recently got an MFC-L2750DW for my home office that I am looking to swap for a MFC-L3770CDW as for some blasted reason Brother decided to get rid of printing and scanning from/to USB storage devices for the MFC-L2750DW. Having read this now on Hacker News, I am at a loss and tempted to dump Brother altogether.

Is there any reasonable alternative out there if you want:

* Laser printing

* Duplex printing

* Do not necessarily need colour

* Printing from USB storage devices

* Scanning to USB storage devices
