Strengths: Does just about everything we want and is very easy to operate.
Weakness: Automatic document feeder is adequate but has limited capacity of a few dozen pages. I would like a larger input.
I got this machine about 6 months ago and feel it is now safe to tell everybody what a gem this is. After struggling with a Xerox multifunction machine for years, this Brothers MFC-8860DN is a real pleasure to use. It does everything and does it well. I got it from Provantage, a vendor I had not dealtr with previously. I got a great price and prompt delivery!
Strengths: Fast, clean copy
Weakness: No single page bypass, scan software needs some tweaks
All in all, I'm very pleased with this machine. The creaks and pops noted by others at warmup do not bother me. The lack of a single page bypass is somewhat annoying, however - you can't simply feed a single envelope without reconfiguring the paper tray. The most annoying thing with the scanner is probably software related. When you open the scan screen, the paper size is set at A4 - even though...
Strengths: Fast everything, great print, it does more then I expected
Weakness: A little loud when printing, but I'll take that in exchange for speed.
I love it, everyday I find somthing this machine does that I love, so far I love the fact when you fax all the paper goes thru and comes out, then the fax goes thru, I'm not sitting & waiting to re-file my papers if their fax is slow at the other end. I kept my other printer for color reasons. But I send 3 pages to the old printer & three to the new one & the new one is done bofore the old one is...
Strengths: Very fast; duplex capability; USB, Parallel, and ethernet connections; supports up to legal size documents and its a laser.
Weakness: No color support, but those run another $300 at the minimum.
We purchased this product about 3 months ago. We bought this product because my wife wanted the duplex capability for home-schooling. We love the speed and ease of us for this product. We have a 4ppm HP Laserjet 4P that I bought while in college 12 years ago. 30ppm is so much faster. When I print a document less than about five pages on this printer, it is normally done before I walk over to it....
Strengths: speed, price
Weakness: none
I used to share an office with several attorneys, and we had some pretty good office equipment. I just moved my office to my home, and not having the resources for the fancy printers and copiers, I bought this one, and am very pleased. It sits 3 feet behind me, and I have no problem with the noise. However, it does sit in a rest mode for about 30 minutes before "going to sleep", and during that...
Strengths: Fast, sharp double-sided printing, multi-sheet scanner/copier, network
Weakness: lack of a single-page feed
I needed to replace an ordinary laser printer (NEC 870) but settled on this Brother 8860DN, which has a boatload of features that I don’t use. Yet, I am extremely pleased with this machine. The 8860DN, at heart, is made up of a very good duplex laser printer and a fine multi-sheet feed scanner. The printer churns out word docs in a blur. Text is sharp and graphics decent. Duplex (two-sided...
Strengths: Duplex, scan to PDF
Weakness: None so far
MFC-8860DN is the best all-in-one I have used. It prints, copies, and scans, and best of all, in duplex (double sided). In addition, you can scan to PDF (via email or FTP). So the machine is ideal for small businesses (e.g. 5-20 people). Finally, the print speed is amazing, about 25ppm. With this machine, you don't need to lease those expensive copiers anymore (easily 200 to 400 per month).
Strengths: Works great when it works (see my comment) - relatively fast 1st page, nice network scan, fax, copier.
Weakness: When it works: 1100 Watts – toooo much; Paper is overheated – curves; A bit noisy; When you have problem: NO WARRANTY, NO SUPPORT; NO LONG LIFE
I was with HP for 15-20 years, needed MFP read all reviews here and decided that MFC-8860DN will be a good choice (other option was HP 3055). It has everything I need – copier, network print, scan, fax. Easy setup (I am in IT for 25+ years). Everything was almost perfect. The only complaint you need to keep in mind – IT EATS 1100 WATTS when starts printing – light could flash. It was OK,...
Strengths: It does everything - and does it well. I'm particularly impressed with the way the software interfaces with the machine.
Weakness: I know of none.
I suffered for years with a Xerox multifunction machine that failed often and could only be serviced by shipping it back to the factory. This machine is like a breath of fresh air. When you push the button or click the mouse, it does every is says it is going to do. It is loaded with features. A real pleasure to use. PS - It cost less than the Xerox and the supplies cost less.
The Brother MFC-8860DN is an all-in-one black and white laser printer that is suitable for small to medium-sized businesses and is a step up from the MFC-8460N. The unit includes print, copy, scan, and fax capabilities to provide all-round office printing functionality. It is more advanced than the MFC-8460N since it includes automatic duplex functionality for double-sided printing and is Energy...

My Brother—been never better
Strengths: IT WORKS AWESOME FLAWLESS, OUT-OF-THE-BOX
Weakness: A little slow printing graphics but quality is worth the wait
I finally bought the right printer and I am thoroughly satisfied. Everything works—everything! Duplex printing: fascinating to watch. Envelope printing: exact without bent or creased corners. It copies and faxes both sides and works seamlessly with my Mac Leopard. One reviewer commented that their unit seemed "A little loud when printing" but I find the noise level acceptable, and like them, I...
