I have owned 2 of these all in ones, as well as other Brother all in ones. We use this for a business. We print hundreds of documents a day, as well as dozens of faxes. Both units I have owned have had issues making copies. We make hundreds of copies per day. Quite frequently, when you are making multiple copies of the same document, the machine will stop and give you an error. You have to turn off the power and wait for it to reboot. Once this happens, it will continue to do so over and over. Both printers I have owned have done the same thing. I have had few problems with jamming, and get great life out of both the toner (use the higher quantity toner) and the drum. The unit will make thousands of copies after it tells you the drum needs replaced soon, so do not replace until the drum is completely used up.

I was advised by someone I trusted to buy a Brother All-in-One machine for my home office. I checked for user reviews online in as many places as I could. The Brother MFC 8220 did not have that many, but they were all positive. Other machines seemed to give their users some level of inconvenience; such as frequent jamming, excessive noise, heat, or power consumption.

Although this machine is network capable, you have to purchase a separate network card. since that was not an issue for me, I did not mind. I can't say that I use anywhere near all of this machines capabilities, but it has performed everything well. It is a great laser printer, great copier, and great fax machine. I was concerned about not having a flat-bed scanner to scan odd things into a file, but I have not needed that yet, and have an scanner with another pc in the house.
I am very happy that I purchased this unit and would do so again. I think it jammed once on me in the 3 months I have owned it. I was feeing an envelope I think, which is a little different. You quickly learn how to feed so that the machine "grabs" the sheet and then takes it.

This product does not have a flip top copier, so it is impossible to copy pages of different sizes. If you only ever need to copy 8.5 by 11, it would probably be fine.

I have never bought any printer, fax or scanner that wasn't a HP. When I needed a new fax, I looked at the offerings from HP & was very disappointed. This Brother got great reviews & I decided to try it. I am very glad I did. It is a wonderful fax. It can keep up with my extremely busy fax traffic that comes into my office. When I send a multi-page fax it puts it right through, no jams, no problems. I am thinking of buying another one to use in another part of the office for a copier/scanner function. You will definetly get your money's worth with this printer.
