What "Signing Agency" are you representing?

While I agree that Brother printers are excellent I would advise against your recommendation on two fronts:

You said, "I suggest brother MFC laser or inkjet."

As a "Signing Agency" you should know that a LASER printer is the only acceptable printer for doing edocs. Of course, if you are not recommending the ability of doing edocs, then disregard this entire post. But, your statements may be very misleading.

You also stated, "We just purchased a new 9700 MFC laser ..."

Again, this is an excellent printer, but I would not recommend its use for edocs. Why? They only support PCL4 emulation. Some companies have already migrated to PCL5e and soon will probably be migrating to PCL6 which means this printer would not be able to support the printing of those documents. (I do know of one service that already requires that the printer support PCL6 and a couple of other services that require HP only printers.) Only HP printers have natively supported PCL engines and are the only printers guaranteed (by HP) to support all commands in the PCL specification.

I will say that I personally do not know of anyone with a Brother printer that has had a problem with printing edocs. I have heard of and seen posted, where people have stated they have had problems. But I look at it this way. Why take the chance? HP printers are guaranteed to support what the lenders and title companies throw at us. Will other vendors (including Brother) make the same claim for any printer they advertise as "PCL Compatible" and uses PCL emulated drivers?
