What You Should Know about the MFC-8840D All-in-One Printer (2400x600 DPI, B&W, 32MB, PC/Mac)

Duplex Printing a Must for Busy Offices

A printer with duplex capability contains an internal mechanism for turning the paper over to print on the other side. (This is not to be confused with the manual duplexing that some printers offer, where driver software walks you through the process of turning over the paper yourself.) Any high-volume office should seriously consider this feature. The duplexing process slows down your print job a bit, but it also immediately cuts your paper use in half -- good for your budget, good for the environment.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: GREAT price from Staples: FAST all in one machine, USB 2.0, clean lcd/button display

    Weaknesses: none so far

    Overall Evaluation: Good machine, easy use. high price. The MFC-8440 is an excellent all-in-one printer/fax/copier/scanner. The size is big, but no bigger than is necessary to have an 8.5"x11" flatbed scanning area
