5 of 5A Lot of Bang for the Buck!! Tuesday, September 25, 2007 mc from Toledo, Ohio
Really can't beat this printer for value/performance.
Network scan to PDF - duplexed for about $500 !!!
I have had several Brother printers over the years, and am always impressed with the value and featureset of the products.
Used with Macs for the majority of work.
(had, still use a MFC-8840DN but our office expanded and wanted the same functionality...the 8870 performs the task.
Recommended.
