Editorial Review: Product Description: The MFC-8870DW is the flagship model of the Brother laser Multi-Function Center product line and it leaves nothing to be desired for your small/medium business or workgroup. Built-in (802.11b/g) wireless and (Ethernet) network interfaces and built-in duplexing for 2-sided printing, copying, scanning and faxing. All making this the optimal solution for any office. Amazon.com Product Description: The MFC-8870DW offers economical and environmentally sound duplex capability that includes automatic two-sided printing, copying, scanning and faxing. You can scan a large multi-page, single-sided document and then print them on half the paper (odd pages on front, even pages on back), and save paper costs on all other functions by using up both sides of every sheet -- without the hassle of having to flip the paper yourself.
The MFC-8870DW has a convenient flatbed design that accommodates either single sheets or bound documents for copying, faxing, or scanning. With the ability to function as a digital copier, the unit supports reduction and enlargement of documents from 25 to 400 percent in one percent increments, makes up to 99 copies and includes sorting functionality.

It stores up to 600 pages for Quick Scan faxing or out-of-paper fax reception. Stand-alone fax and copy operation is standard, so no computer is required. When operating as a scanner, the unit is capable of color scanning up to 9,600 dpi interpolated resolution (up to 600 x 2,400 dpi optical). For Windows and OS X 10.2.4 or greater based users, there is an easy-to-use "scan to" button for scanning directly to an FTP site, image application, OCR, E-mail application or file.

 Rating: - Great Features but some reliability issuesFor the past 1 1/2 I have purchased several of these brother MFC machines, including the MFC 8870DW. As one other person indicated, the Brother printers seem to have a flaw with the paper tray and periodically they will stop working and click. A call to Brother does not resolve the problem. The good news is that I always buy through Costco so instead of sending back the problem machine to Brother for a "refurbished" one, I merely order a new one and take the broken one back to Costco for a full refund. ... Read More Rating:  - Great Printer, Horrible Customer ServiceThe MFC is great with double sided printing and wireless capability, but there does not exist enough expletives to describe Brother's customer service. Thus: Printer = 5 stars, Customer Service = -10 stars. Setup was quick and easy and printed well. But mine had a problem making copies. Fax, Scan, Print all worked great, but just copies came out blurry, light, and with toner hue inconsistently across the page. It did not matter whether using the automatic feeder or the flatbed. ... Read More Rating:  - Best Multi-Function Printer on the MarketBest b/w multi-function printer money can buy. This is one of the few that has duplex capability for BOTH printing and scanning, and it is the only MF that has both capabilities and is anywhere close to this price range. The Brother MFC-8870DW would be a bargain at twice the price. We are especially happy with the wireless networking that has finally allowed us to locate the printer where we want it, rather than being constrained to being within cable range of our Mac. Highly recommended. Rating: - Brother Printer ReviewSo far, all seems to be working just fine. Look forward to using the many features installed with this printer Rating: - Good but not perfect.....My wife needed this all-in-one to replace an overloaded HP 1012, an old and balky fax machine and a flatbed scanner. The main impetus was her business was requiring scanning of multiple sheets. We've had it for 2 months now and here's the results so far: THE GOOD: Frees up a lot of desk space; Quick & easy initial set up; big paper tray; superfast printing, quiet operation (despite some earlier reviews to the contrary); fax and document scanning has been a breeze; even the duplex feature has worked perfectly ...
