We had an Epson Workforce 610 before this...it worked great for about 10 months and then it started to breakdown. The auto-document feeder started to jam and skip pages. We tried an HP after that, but it was not up to par--it scanned and printed really slowly. We decided we didn't need a color inkjet, so we went with the Brother.

This unit seems to get the job done. It's not huge and overbearing. The settings are customizable, which is nice. It's just really loud. It has a fan that runs when it's printing/scanning so it doesn't overheat, so you don't really want to have it on a desk next to you. I can't hear people on the phone when the fan is on. Luckily, it turns off if it's not in use for a certain amount of time. Other than that, this seems to do the job.

The starter laser cartridge only prints about 600 pages (in eco mode), but the replacement, full-sized cartridges are only about $44, so it's pretty reasonable.

Most of the features on the Brother Wireless Printer work, but the scan button doesn't work. I called Brother Tech Supppport and they were useless. The had me uninstall the software and then reload it. When that didn't work, they said they was nothing more they could do for me and suggested I contact DELL Tech Support (my computer manufacturer) and tell them there must be a problem with my registry. I called DELL and they checked out my registry and found no problem. I then went back to the Staples store where I purchased the printer. They told me the Scan button doesn't work on Brother's wireless printers because there is not enough bandwith for it to work. So the wireless printer searches for a cable and when it can't find it, it gives you an error message saying it can't communicate with the computer. This makes sense, but begs the question "why does Brother place scan buttons on its wireless printers when they don't work?" Fortunately, I can scan from my computer using the installed software (but not from the scan button)

    Comments about Brother� MFC7860DW Laser Multi-Function Printer:

    I bought this printer to replace a 7 year old MFC which stopped working. Last month I purchased a toner cartridge for the old model and I am disappointed that the new model requires a different cartridge. I had the same experience when I purchased the older machine. I now have 2 practically unused cartridges which are of no value to me.

            Currently, Brother printer's aren't sold as "Cloud ready printers". So this printer would need to be connected to a computer to install the necessary drivers to be Google Cloud Print compatible. To place an order for this item, please contact us by dialing 1-800-333-3330.
