- Fuser Error with 3 daysI've had my Brother MFC 8660DN for three days and up comes a "Fuser Error". Arggh. Very expensive to replace. Piece of Junk Rating: - Good value in a Multi-Function machineThis multi-purpose machine replaces a Brother MFC 8840D which was damaged in a move and at this price it was more cost-effective to replace than to repair. Fast turnaround on the delivery meant that we were without a scanner for only a few work days. This newer model seems to print a bit faster and is noticeably quieter than the 8840. Rating: - supports linux yay !!Exactly what i wanted. Works beautifully with Linux. print fax scan email ftp. and cost effective too. Love it. Rating: - nice productWe bought this machine last year. It has been used extensively. The printing speed is wonderful. Only one minor issue with the paper intake. After a few months usage the paper tray started to have trouble when the tray was fully loaded. We need to take out some paper and retry. Some times we had to repeat the process several times before the paper tray can be successfully installed. From time to time when the tray is successfully loaded the papers left in the tray is less than half of that the tray can take. Rating: - Best Laser Multi-FunctionJust bought my second MFC-8860DN for an apartment complex office. I have the other at my home and I will agree that it is very noisy, but who cares? It's a printer, not a Cadillac. The noise lets you know it's working. The consumables for this printer are reasonably priced for how long they last. It is letting me know that I am nearing the end of my first drum, so that lasted over a year of hard use. The Brother software works well on PC and Mac, I have mine networked through both. Scans and copies letter and legal, but you have to set up through the software. I have mine set up that if I use the buttons on the printer (which is more common) it scans letter, but if I use the software buttons, it scans legal. I really don't have anything bad to say about this printer and I have been seriously underwhelmed by printers my whole life. It's a big, medium volume printer for a heavily used home office or equivalent. If you have this need, this is the printer for you.
