Excellent - very happy
After reading reviews here I hesitated but happened to see the same machine (but without duplex capability) at a work site and that clinched it for me.
This machine is FAST. Setup is easy (I used the network connection) and the software is vastly improved over the last Brother laser I had (an HL-1270N).
The ticking noises other reviews mention is very slight and lasts just a few seconds while it heats up. Previous lasers I've had would typically whir loudly during this warm...

Great Multi-Function Machine
Having had bad experiences with multi-function machines in the past, I over-researched this purchase. To begin with, this machine's specs are top notch for the money. You simply cannot get this much bang for your buck from any other company. Taking the machine out of the box and setting it up was remarkably easy. I actually thought I was forgeting something. The software installed cleanly and is user-friendly. I should mention, however, that I have not gone through the fax machine setup (n...

Excellent printer overall. Some software bugs
This product has exceeded my expectations in most ways. There have only been a couple of issues that I've come across. The feature set is excellent. I use the scan to FTP function to automatically send scanned documents to my web server- making them instantly available online. The duplex is the biggest reason I bought it- and the scanner duplex and printing/faxing/copy duplex are flawless. Items that I've come across- the machine can poll a Pop account and automatically print any text email...

About time...a multifunction where everything works well
After a few years with an HP7130 multifunction that was seriously beginning to fall apart, I began looking for a replacement. I Checked all the reviews for months, every multifunction gets reamed by the reviewers, but not this one.
I wanted automatic feeder capability on the scanner plus high quality printing and an easy way to print lables/envelopes. This unit does it all and does it well.
I scanned in over 2000 sheets of paper in 2 days and had only 4 jams. 3 because I ...

I like it.
After doing a lot of reseach, I bought this multi-function center and have been very happy with it. Canon ranked better overall but it doesn't work with Macintoshes so I was afraid at first I might be disappointed. However, I have been happy with this from day one. It was SO easy to set up, and it is has been very easy to figure out how to get it to do different functions. It interfaces seamlessly with my MacBook Pro and the wireless works perfectly. The pages do curl but that seems relatively m...

Fast and easy to use but LOUD
Printer was easy to set up and is very easy to use but it is LOUD. Printing speed is good, print quality is good, prints duplex which is nice, scanner is easy to use (much easier than our old HP3300), does wrinkle envelopes badly (we use another printer for envelopes). Has counter which the HP3300 didn't. So far, so good!!

Nice multifunction that could use some improvements
I bought the 8860DN a couple weeks ago to replace my aging HP 3330. While I'm quite happy with much of the 8860DN, there are a few things that could use improvement. Some of these can be addressed in software, others I fear are hardware issues.
BTW, I'm on my second machine because I thought some of the issues with the first warranted a replacement. Now I know its a "common" issue.
1) The print engine creaks and makes popping sounds as the fuser heats and cools. Even t...

Most underrated printer
i am usually a hp and epson man, but after reading reviews i decided to give this bother all-in-one a chance. let me add that i recently made the switch from pc to mac, and not many printer companies support all features on the mac side of things. well, let me tell you how satisfied and positively surprised i have been with this printer. just follow the instructions during setup and the printer and software will do everything you would expect them to do.... no fiddling around with settings, no m...

Good printer, but MANGLES envelopes
I was really happy with the speed and quality of the printer until I tried to print an envelope. This printer does not have a straight-through output path for envelopes. Instead, they have to make a sharp turn inside the machine, which severely creases them, to the point of interfering with the printing.
Take a look at the diagram of envelopes they don't support on page 15 of the manual, and you'll see a picture of every conceivable type of envelope. Bottom line: they don't support...

Great machine!
The unit was a breeze to install and set up, even using Windows xp x64 (many manufacturers do not have x64 drivers yet). I plugged it in, installed the software, chose the network option, and it worked. No muss, no fuss. I was sending and receiving faxes and printing in under ten minutes.
I found it much easier to scan from my PC than to use the front panel interface, as many of the settings could be preset from the software instead of being set on the unit's front panel.
