Greetings -

I am looking to replace my piece of junk HP J6450 with a new unit. I want something that has decent B&W scanning with an automatic feeder. I scan documents, receipts, etc. The HP ADF is terrible, pages come through choppy and unreadable.

I consider purchasing the Fujitsu 300M scanner and a small standalone printer. Otherwise Newegg has the Brother MFC-7840W for $209 through end of today.

Opinions? I also want to unit to work well with Snow Leopard and Ethernet.
 
Brothers seem to work well with OSX 10.6

I just purchased a Brother 495cw all-in-one (a bit lower-end than the 7840 :)) and it was a snap to setup under OSX 10.6.2 over a wireless 11g connection. So far so good.
