An acceptable printer Dec 08, 2008 Bought September 2008, been using for 3 months.
This is an OK printer - I had bought and returned an HP Offijet 7680 2 weeks before - print quality superb, software HORRIBLE.
So the install of the Brother went smoothly, not too much useless software added to your PC and I get the machine running within 10 minutes.
That being said, I am somewhat disappointed.
Print quality: definitely not as good as the HP (which I used for one day before the config totally gave up on me).
Scan quality: ditto, nothing like the HP.
Fax: it works, directly from PC.
Useability: Mediocre
1. NO DOUBLE SIDED functionality (either scanning or printing). I should have read more before buying - this is a must for a SOHO like mine.
2. Small paper container.
3. High ink usage.
The pro's - the cordless phone is a nice plus. I have not used the wireless, but I imagine it could come in handy.
Bottom line:
An OK machine, but in hindsight, I would NOT have bought it.

VISTA COMPATIBLE-LOVE IT! Nov 19, 2008 This is the first time I have purchased a "BROTHER" product. I needed a printer/scanner for my VISTA system. VISTA realy limited me from my choices due to not many on the market yet so I was extremely hesitant about purchasing this item. I usualy buy Sony or Panasonic.
It arrived sooner than I had expected. Instructions were easy to follow. It is wireless and I set it up for this but it did not respond. I called customer service and the gentleman was EXTREMELY kind and patient. He walked me through step-by-step and would not exit our conversation until he heard the machine working properly.
My family and I have put it to use DAILY! I LOVE my scanned photos. It prints GREAT. COLOR is GREAT. FAXES great. I love the "black" print button-no need to set it on properties! The phone works GREAT. The price was GREAT! I am so happy I chose BROTHER for my VISTA system. I am completely satisfied.
Covers all the bases, truly all-in-one. Oct 31, 2008 I've been using this printer for about 6 months now and love it. I share office space and use the MFC-885CW as my personal machine, only sending bigger jobs to my secretary. It's been under a heavy load from day one. Here's what I like:
1. Print quality is excellent for text and photos. Whether I'm printing a motion or photo exhibits, my results look great.
2. The option to pick up the cordless phone and roam around the office means I can grab files without putting people on hold. It has good range, too, covering our whole building.
3. It is very easy to use. I'm not a big reader of manuals. I just started using it and i've never had a problem figuring it out. It also has tons of features.
4. Wireless. I hate cables. This machine sits discreetly off to one side (and looks ok, even in my country-lawyer style office) without any ugly cables running to my laptop. I walk in the door, sit down, open my laptop, and can print and fax immediately. Also, my secretary likes the fact that she can print docs to me without having to leave the front desk and phones.
What I don't like:
1. The fax is slow. It's about half the speed of most faxes. Large documents still go to our shared fax, but for anything under ten pages, it isn't an inconvenience.
2. The paper tray could be bigger. I run out about once a week (I also print a lot). Always in the middle of something I need right away, but it is easy to reload.
3. The document feeder only handles 10 pages at a time. No big deal to me, as we have a commercial copier, but it would be really irritating if this was my only copier.
So, this is a great printer if you need a lot of features for a little money and don't handle many large documents. For most people it would be fine, and even with an active law practice, I'm only rarely inconvenienced. Compared to the hassle of using multiple machines, this is a lot better. It's perfect for home offices or lower volume offices, like a start up. One thing - I've seen this machine on sale, twice, for around a hundred dollars less, so you might shop around. Still worth the full price, though, especially if you want a machine that can be a fax and phone on only one line, provide versatility in printing, and copy easily.
i like it Oct 21, 2008 this is the 1st all in one machine ive bought and i cant be happier. it has done evrything ive ever wanted it to and with no problems. im stationed in germany and needed something that would fax from here to the states and it does. printing pictures is a bit defferent, but i think im using the wrong paper. so will see. all in all no problems. would recommend this for the home office person.
Has all the features I needed Oct 17, 2008 I was upgrading from a simple Epson CX-5400 all-in-one printer. I had very specific requirements for my next AIO. I wanted print/scan/copy/fax with wireless capability and cordless handset. There are very few options with such capabilites and this had great reviews.
I have had the printer for 6 weeks and so far I couldn't be happier. It took about 10min to set up with my wireless network. Print quality is very good and better than expected, scanning tools/interface is user friendly with many options, fax works well, cordless phone is very helpful. Hopefully it continues to work well.
