Very happy with this printer. Easy setup and a wide range of functions. I can print from most any device in my house and scan to file on multiple devices. Setup was far less complicated and works more reliably then my previous laser printer.

Not what we thought it would be: Ink runs out much quicker than we thought it would. Sometimes things print long after we send them which ends up wasting paper because we reprint thinking it didn't go through.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with the toner yield of your Brother MFC-L8610CDW, please note that stated page yields for genuine Brother cartridges are based on the ISO testing standards. The number of pages that can be printed with a cartridge is affected by several factors, including paper size, number of pages per print job, amount of print on each page, font size, and print content (graphics, charts, etc.). Print jobs with large text fonts, graphics, charts, and/or large amount of solid coverage (black or any given color) will use much more toner and will shorten the life of the toner cartridge.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've used this printer for a couple of years and absolutely love it. The only issue is that it does not duplex scan. Other than that one issue, it an absolute workhorse ready to print anyway we want, scan and fax. It makes the office run much smoother!
I find for such an expensive printer even though it is a little older it does not preform like I would expect for an Brother product. When I try printing on gloss product like photo paper or brochure type paper or light card stock it comes out all distorted and dripping with toner. When I try printing 2 sided it almost always jams especially like the above mentioned products. I also have a Brother MFC-J680DW printer and it does a fairly descent job printing but it is very slow when printing color and usually jams when I use light or a little heavier card stock.
We bought this machine because of the ability to have two paper trays. It is amazing! No more switching checks in and out with paper. It's a little slow to spool and warm up compared to an inkjet.
