Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wrinkled Pages The print quality is good, and the scan and fax features work as advertised. That being said, I will never buy another Brother product. The original printer started wrinkling pages toward the end of the warranty period and was replaced by Brother under warranty with no hassles. Fortunately, I bought the extended warranty because I am now on printer number 4 or 5. All have needed replacing because the refurbished units they replaced my new printer with wrinkle pages during printing or have some other issue. Their customer service is good, but their printers are junk. Please, do yourself a favor and buy a different brand. I wish I had.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice machine I've used my 6800 for 3 years. It has all the features I need. I get great support from Brother. My computer wouldn't recognize my printer after I had worked away from home, using a different computer. I was able to go to the Brother website and download the correct drivers again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Brother MFC-L6800DW - The All-in-One you want. The Brother MFC-L6800DW All-in-One is a solidly built device that is capable of handling just about all of your copying, printing, faxing and scanning needs with ease. These days, two-sided capability is a necessity to help cut-down on paper usage and save trees. And the MFC-L6800DW has that capability built into all of its functions. The toner saver feature means that it can make more prints / copies without giving up print quality. The color display is clear and bright, and the menu system is straight forward and easy to navigate. The Brother MFC-L6800DW has more capabilities designed into it than I currently need. But in my case, these additional features future-proofs this device when it comes time that I need these features. Meaning I won't need to go out and buy yet another device with the additional features I might need at that time. They are already here in the Brother MFC-L6800DW. I bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW to replace an aging Brother MFC-9700 All-In-One that I bought new and used for 14 years. The Brother MFC-9700 worked flawlessly the entire time I owned it. In fact, I gave it to a friend of mine that is still using it today. So in my opinion, why consider another brand. I decided to go with my experience in owning the Brother MFC-9700 and bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW. And so far, based on reviews about similar machines from other manufacturers, I am glad I bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from L6800 better than L6700 in printing adhesive label We are long time Brother Laser MFC users. Our first unit of the current generation is the L6800DW. Also purchased the LT5500 lower paper tray. This did not last long before the paper handler could no longer grab sheet from the lower tray. The printer lasted through atleast 3-4 of the TN880's. I was not sure what the meaningful differences were between the 6700, 6800, and 6900's, aside from Max MDC and Recommended MPV. The 6900 was very expensive. For the second and third units, I went with the 6700's. Afterwards, I noticed that the 6800 was great at printing to labels with adhesive. The 6700 tended to smear a little. Is this an inherent trait of each model or did I get lucky on the 6800?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast print, Fast Scan This is the second printer of this type that I have had in my small business. The first one lasted 4 years. This MFC-L6800DW is even better. It does everything but print color. Great for a business.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Multifunction unit for small business If all you need is black and white this is the printer/copier/scanner for you. It does it all and it does it fast. Easy to set up, easy to unbox. Holds 2x the paper of our old one. 12,000 page toner. The only model better is not quite out in the US yet. The MFC-L6900DW which is very similar only it can do 20,000 pages vs 12,000 on toner.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I like it! It is a great improvement from what we had. I am still having an issue with the scanner falling off the network (or I just have not figured out in the setup what needs to happen. But other than that it works as advertised and is a wonderful machine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fast, User Friendly One thing that we can not figure out how to cancel out: the fax will say receiving - for minutes. This holds up other functions. UG says press 'X" to cancel. It won't cancel. Can't turn off, says busy. Ultimately have to unplug printer. I believe Brother can fix this and that is why I would still recommend. It is a fast printer, fast copier, and fast duplex scanning. Thumbs up!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exellent Copier We are a small business and currently we are using this product for its copier features. It is very easy to operate. It has a large paper tray and prints quickly. We are very satisfied with the product and highly recommend PCNation for the purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buy another printer! I've had nothing but problems with this printer since we bought it. The touchscreen keypad is garbage and works sporadically. Bring back the actual keypad! In addition to the touchscreen issue, I've been plagued with lines on anything that is copied or faxed from the top document feeder. I've cleaned it repeatedly as per Brother customer support, and they keep coming back despite minimal use. Lastly, the scanning software is not easy to use. I used to love Brother multifunction printers, but this one has been a severe disappointment.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from affordable small business printer Bought this unit to replace a copier machine that had scan to email functionality and a fax machine. This was a perfect fit for our office: small enough to sit on a desk and easy to set up on our network. The paper capacity is sufficient so that we aren't refilling it constantly. Toner usage is minimal: maybe we've had to replace it once in two years? One issue we've experienced is that sometimes the touchscreen does not come back on after the unit has gone to sleep. Pressing the Home button sometimes brings it back up, but occasionally the printer has to be power cycled. Not a huge concern. The other thing that bothers me a bit is that autofeed scans are never straight. They are always slightly crooked relative to the original document.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great printer at a great price We replaced a very expensive leased Canon with this printer. The monthly capital cost + consumables is about 20% the cost of the lease. Even if I have to replace this printer in a year, it will still be less than the leased machine. And, I'm locking myself into a multi-year lease.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very intuitive! Superb customer service! This is the second small office brother all in one that I have owned.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great MFC for the Price Fast, Great Quality Printing. Have not yet used all the features, like the short cuts from the printer display. Paper tray capacity at just over 500 sheets is excellent feature.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Will not auto select MP Tray I have had this unit under a year and the "Auto Select" function under paper source has never worked. I have to change manually change it to MP Tray every time I want to print from that tray. I have 2 Brother MFC-8890DW printers and they both allow auto select to the MP Tray. With these older machines I just drop the MP Tray and load paper and it prints. I am guessing that the sensor is bad on this machine. I have used the Brother MFC-L69800DW software to try to adjust this as well as the menu options on the printer to no avail. For as much as I paid for this unit, it is a disappointment. I can't afford the down time to ship it back to the Manufacturer for Warranty Claim.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from super machine This is an excellent replacement machine. I wore the other brother totally out for my office use and my kids are still using it, the new machine is faster, holds more paper was very easy to to set up and sync with the network. I highly recommend this machine and the second drawer if anyone has legal to print.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from MFC-L6800DW ohio review This is very fine machine, but I remain concerned about the screen functions. Witout an actual keypad, it the screen fails, the machine is most likely not usable. Bring back the keypad. Even if one or two keys don't work, you can still use the machine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Printer This printer has incredible features and it has performed beyond what I had expected. The wireless printing from my laptop, notebook, tablet or phone is quite easily accomplished from wherever I am in the house. Thus far it has outperformed all the printers I have had in the past. The setup was flawless and I am quite satisfied with my purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Speedy printer Speedy printer, but it would be great if it would accept presets from Adobe Acrobat and if it would scan in 1200 dpi mode. Other than that, it's great. The best features are the high speed printing and the ability to scan both sides of a document at the same time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Printer, lots of features I would give this print 5 stars except for two issues I have. 1. the low paper warning goes of too soon. I wish I can set what the low level should be. 2. When I print a label the fuser does not get hot enough for the toner to stick to the first label, so I have to print the label twice. Other than that the printed page output is fast

It is one of the few printers left in this category that actually has direct FTP capabilities. That's much better than shackling you to a cloud service!! Print quality is great and very fast! The color display is very nice. Shortcut configurations are easy to setup. The faxing side works well. I'm very pleased with this purchase!
