Nice All-in-one printer

Strengths: The quality and speed of printing, scanning and fax.

Weakness: only have B/W scan

It's a really nice laser all-in-one. I owned another brother laser printer for 3 years and had no problem at all. So I assume this one is made solid also. Even though it's a business level one, it still did great job for home office purpose. Fast printing, scanning, and fax. The only drawback is its B/W scan function. I am very glad to have it so far.

Happy

Strengths: Initial Cost and consumables price per page.

Weakness: The Manual Feed Tray only holds one piece and Jams occasionally with envelopes. Cost of optional second lower tray.

We are happy with the MFC8220. We use it primarily as a fax. We chose this machine because the consumables price per page was better than other machines in its class.

Brother MFC-8220 Multifunction Printer*

Strengths: Compact,sylish, clean looking.

Weakness: Heavy power drain. Causes line voltage to dip and trips UPS alarm. Have to run a separate circuit.

Nice 5-1 unit. Prints pages quickly, copies and faxes well. Easy to set-up. Would recommend option network card or an esternal print server for network environment. Power drain is not an issue. I would recommend its purchase.

Brother MFC-8220 Multifunction Printer*

Strengths: a value product which provided mult-function tasks for small business setting, cost of toner is very reasonable in compare with regular inkjet cartridge

Weakness: A paper tray with 500volume would be best

Excellent and speedy black and white printing. Scanner perform at good DPI with crispy result. Forseeable low maintenance supply cost. 32MB will fit the need of any small office setting for fax, copy etc.

MFC-8220 BROTHER PRINTER

Strengths: The inexpensive cost of this printer is why I bought the printer, plus the reviews of the inexpensive cost of the ink.

Weakness: I don't like the screen on top of the printer. My overhead lights in my office are bright and the screen on the printer is very hard to see.

This has been a very nice printer for me. We use it daily without any problems. Like I said earlier, the low cost and the reviews are the main reason I purchased this printer. It is very easy to learn to use. I am very pleased with my MFC-8220 Brother Printer

Brother Laser Multifunction

Strengths: Compact, Fax, Fast

Weakness: not a flatbed

This is an excellent laser multifunction for the money. prints come out nice and dark, works fast and has document feeder for fax and scan. unlike many multifunctions, this does come with fax. footprint is not big and its fairly quiet. excellent buy for the money.

Brother MFC8220

Strengths: all in one, cheap

Weakness: not color scanner

Very good and cheap all-in-one printer. Only one drawback is no-color scanner. I scan a lot of color images, so this would be a big problem for me. But, for this price, I can't complain.

Fast, inexpensive multifunction machine for small...

Strengths: Fast, extensive fax features; inexpensive; Driver is simple and just takes less ram space; printing is good; scan is good; came with the paperport software.

Weakness: can not scan in color; can not print with the high quality. this is a little old model.

Brother MFC 8220 is fast and inexpensive multifunction machine which provide most of the features for a small business office. I highly recommend if you're in the market for a multifunction monochrome laser printer machine that is compatible with both Windows and Mac OS.
