Brother Printer Copy Scanner

We bought this printer as a replacement for an older Brother. This printer is taking the place of having a separate copy machine. So far, it has been excellent.

Scan quality is excellent - I'm not even using our scanner, but scanning everything with this printer. Copy quality is excellent. This printer feels very professional to use and set up. There are great admin setup features, with so many levels of customization and user control. We are using it on our Ethernet and the connection has been no trouble. Bypass printing is reliable and fast. The ADF works well, even for duplex scanning/copying. Like others have mentioned, it feels a bit slow for getting that first page to print (still less than 10 seconds), but the tradeoff in quality, administration and features FAR outweighs the time to first page print. Definitely appreciate Brother's offering in this price range for our small business office daily use.TL

I really like and use a lot of the options that are available on this printer/copier/scanner/fax. I previously owned another Brother machine that had performed well, but this one is even better.

I resell Brother printers all the time. This one went to a customer that requested another Brother all-in-one printer/scanner. They are thrilled with this one and the one they have had for several years. I highly recommend Brother printers.

I purchased this printer to replace an old Brother laser jet. Since my old Epson scanner was no longer compatible with the current OS, I liked that this printer had the ability to scan as well. Setup was super-easy out of the box. I'm in a Mac environment, and I had no problem whatsoever getting it up and running. The printer is much faster than my old one - faster to warm up and to print. Quality is great, although the color is a bit dark and off. I'm sure I can adjust this, but haven't looked into it yet. The scanner works great, but be aware that you must sign up for an HP account in order to be able to scan. Overall, no regrets with this purchase. It serves its purpose and meets my needs.

After reviewing various consumer product rating publications I selected this Brother MFC-L8610CDW based on both predicted reliability and features. I'm glad I did - it is working great as my primary home printer/scanner. I have two computers (one iMac and one MacBook Air) connected to the printer via WiFi. I did have to reinstall the Brother driver software and fiddle a bit to get the scanner button on the device to connect with my computers. The trick was to make sure, when you attempt the first scan from the MFC-L8610CDW, to go back to your computer and pres "accept" on the two firewall security messages that will show up. After that, everything worked great!

Our second Brother printer, would not have anything else !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just love Brother brand, they make the best printers and scanners. My work uses all Brother printers. This scanner is just magnificent, super easy to set up, took me less than 2 minutes to do. I connected mine to wifi and was able to print it without any issues, prints comes out in high quality and straight, settings are easy to navigate thanks to touchscreen and it has all of the options you need. Scan to server, scan to SMP, scan to email, and etc., You can control the settings through the scanner itself, through app or a brother software utility on your PC. It does come with all the cables that you need to get it to work without wifi but my suggestion would be if you buying this, use the wifi, you can scan it anywhere. Set up a printer, download the brother full package software, install it and bam you have a wonderful scanner. Highly recommend it for businesses and even just for everyday home use. Definitely worth a price

Great printer and scanner!

Brother printer needs to use brother ink. I bought another brand ink that did not work.
