5 out of 5 stars Great Wireless Multi-Function!   April 24, 2008
B. Mills (Atlanta, GA)

I spent about a week researching for just the right multi-function printer for my needs. I own a small business with about 30 employees so I needed more than an inkjet but didn't require a 'corporate' $1000+ version either. I needed fax, scan, copy, and print capability with laser printing and built-in wireless capability. Suprisingly, there are not that many printers on the market that can give you all of these in one package. Originally I was going to purchase the Brother's MFC-8870 for around $500 which all the reviews on the internet recommend, but I found this while browsing around and realized that it had just come out a few weeks ago. Although there were no reviews out yet for this new printer, it was considerably less expensive than the 8870 and the only thing I seemed to be losing was auto-duplexing so I made the purchase. It took about 15 minutes total for me to set up an ad-hoc wireless printer setup and everything works great. The scans are nice, the printing is very crisp and clear even in very small fonts. The only thing I haven't tried yet is the fax which I won't be using much. I really can't say anything bad about this product. Sure it would be nice to have a legal-size flatbed, auto-duplex, and 64mb memory (instead of the default 32mb) but for the money this can't be beat. Overall, this seems to be a really great product at a great price. I highly recommend this if you need a 4-in-1 with wireless capability. Definitely the best on the market for this niche.


5 out of 5 stars Surprised by wireless performance   May 15, 2008

I couldn't believe how easy the wireless was to set up and how fast it operated.
On the setup - My mac detected the printer easily and setup was a breeze. My PC had a little trouble for some reason. I was able to input the IP address from the printer test print. The scanning function and fax steps went off w/o a hitch.

On the performance - I figured the scanning performance would be slow over the wireless network, but that wasn't the case at all.

Short term impressions - awesome value for the price. As with printers though, you have to see how they hold up over time - that's why my HP inkjet went in the can.



5 out of 5 stars Full-featured multifunction device   July 22, 2008

I was looking for a laser multifunction device with network capability that I could use to print from my laptop anywhere in the house. A lot of reviews seemed to point to the Brother MFCs as the best overall brand for laser monochrome devices. The only problem was that there were a LOT of different models to choose from - just going to the Brother website to do some comparison shopping made my head spin.

The MFC-7840W is a recently introduced model which has seemed to get good reviews across the board. A major plus is that it has both wireless and wired network capabilities. I took the plunge and purchased this model. Since I already had a wireless router to plug it into, I didn't need to use the wireless capabilities, but it seemed to be a nice option for future flexibility. The Ethernet connection was easy to set up and worked the first time I tried printing from my laptop.

I've been very pleased with the quality and feature set of the MFC-7840W. Not only does it print high quality output, but it has clearly-labeled buttons for scan, fax, and copy, which makes it a breeze to use any of these functions. Plus, the device is relatively light and doesn't have a very large footprint, so it fits easily on top of a small file cabinet. High marks overall.



5 out of 5 stars Great multi-function for Mac!   August 22, 2008

As long as you don't need color printing, this might be the perfect solution to your Mac-based home or small office needs! I wanted to be able to scan and fax from across the network from iMac and Macbook, but was worried about the setup.. For both OSX 10.4 and 10.5 the setup was as easy as installing the CD and clicking a button. The printing and scanning worked automatically right out of the box across the network (hard-wired).

I have not yet tried faxing across the network, but the scanning works great and automatically detects the computers on the network that are installed with the brother software. You can scan from either the buttons on the MFC, or initiate the scan/copy operation from the computer on the network.

As is typical, the documentation is incomplete and inaccurate in many places, but since everything worked right out of the box, it wasn't a big deal.

If you scan a document to file, it will stick it in your "Pictures" folder by default. to change the default scanning settings, you will notice a little icon that gets put up on the top right of your screen next to your clock. Click here to adjust preferences. (not in the documentation!)



5 out of 5 stars So far, so good (as a wireless printer & scanner)   May 22, 2008

I was looking for a wireless laser MFC, and this one was one of few that supported these features. The wireless installation was easy (just follow the sequence in the manual). Just one note about entering the WEP security keys: when entering repeating digits like '77', you need to press the -> key after entering the first digit to move to the next position otherwise it enters the second digit in the same position. Also I had to first disable MAC address filtering on my wireless router because the printer's MAC address was not obvious (not written anywhere) for me to add it to my wireless router's "allowed" list. Once the printer connected to the wireless, I was able to see its MAC address and then added it to the "allowed" list and enabled the MAC address filtering. I've only had a chance to print a few pages and they quality seems acceptable (what I would expect at this price). I also tried the scanner from my Windows XP laptop over the wireless and it is real easy to use, just like printer. I can scan and save the file or email it. I have not tried the document to text scan just as yet. Its looking good so far, will update if anything negative comes up...
