Brother MFC-8480DN

Fast. High-quality output for a mono laser across the board. Prints, scans, faxes over network

Doesn't scan in duplex (both sides of a page)

The Brother MFC-8480DN stands out as a winner, with fast print speed, reasonably high-quality output, and a wealth of all-in-one features.

Fast laser printer with great results ; Networked ; Large capacity tray

Setup can be complicated. I ended up mapping a network drive from my WHS to my desktop for "network" scanning. I never figured out the whole FTP to my server. No biggie, we don't scan often and when we do it works great

I run a law office and before purchasing read tons of reviews, almost all good to great. Purchased the 8860DN 5 years ago and which is basically the same machine from what I've seen at the OD store, except toner/drum cartridges and addition of USB port...

When using the MP tray for envelopes it makes creases at one end just about every time and depending on the number or brand of envelope it sometimes jams. But not very often. Make sure to get the large size toner. The toner cartridges appear to be the...

Last one lasted 3 years at 250 copys/prints a day (MFC-8460N)

Sadly, this is a manual duplex machine (if that makes any sense), which is the same as a simplex printer. In other words, it's NOT duplex capable

Windows 7 Compatible ; You can do everything via the network ; Remote configuration and monitoring ; Has an on/off switch ; Can scan up to 8.5x14 ; Scanning software does not suck ; Fast printing, but warmup time is a bit long ; Software behaves well -...

Tall for its foot print ; Warmup time for print is longer than other models ; Software needs to run on the PC all the time if you want the features ; Pricing is variable - It can be had for < $300

I retired all my dells and lexmarks MFC printers for this Brother. This printer is solid. Prints quick. User friendly use controls. Rare paper jams

When out of ink it wont print and no alert when its low. So you must always have a spare toner for emergencies

Have 5 of these units onboard several of our SHIPS and pennies for pennies /print for print this is the most efficient MFC you can buy

Does not come in dual voltage 110V/220V

Energy Saver, prints quickly and double-sided to save paper, easy to use ; Printing: 5 Eggs, Faxing: 5 Eggs, Copies: 3 Eggs, Scanning: 3 Eggs

Scanning in color is very slow, cannot scan double sided, the scanning software is not the greatest. Also you can copy to create a double-side document but unable to scan a double sided document

Fully functional duplex network all-in-one unit. This is a true network device. There are too many "pros" to list, so I'll try to get to the meat of what many people may be interested in knowing

No cons to list really, so I'll explain a few things to be aware of when considering this printer
