Printer works well, but has some "quirks"
Printer works well printing documents in black and white. Some difficulty in setting parameters for paper size, and other specific needs when printing, particularly with color photos. Still trying to learn how to set things up and use it.

Features not as advertised - no duplex scan feature
When we bought this Brother machine, our first Brother product, the features descriptions stated duplex print, copy ,scan. it does not actually do duplex scanning, or duplex copying, as we found out from updated product descriptions and from reviews given by others. We never even used this machine and its still boxed.
Yet we are told we can not return it.
Buyer beware and check several sources in order to get reliable information.
Note that the MFC-L8895CDW Brother product description is still not corrected either about its duplex features, on Brother's own site and own product details, last I looked.

Very good quality printing
Prints look very good. Wish it had the double sided document feeder but I don’t use it enough to justify the next model up. Card stock prints good but usually needs to be fed one sheet at a time. This is my first color laser printer and I really like the quality.

Best printer I've owned yet!
I've owned numerous printers including another color laser printer. This one doesn't have quite the photo printing ability as did the other color laser, but this one is way faster, handles paper better, and is cheaper by far to operate. I had to make 200 copies recently and was surprised as to how fast a relatively small printer could do the job. This is my second Brother laser printer, but this performs much better than the one I had 10 years ago. Okay, get it? I'm impressed.

Excellent for a small business or home use.
The Brother MFCL8610CDW is an excellent printer for the small office or home office. The printing is sharp and clear. It is a fast machine for printing, scanning, and copying. Overall it is just an excellent machine. The toner lasts a long time and it looks like toner is inexpensive to replace. It has been easy to link wirelessly to multiple computers in the home and we have had no problems printing or scanning. The only knock I would have is that the paper tray is a bit small at 250 sheets, however, I could not take a star off because the manual says that you can add trays up to over 1000 page capacity.

This brand came recommended and I was eager to try a laser printer in my home office for the first time. Set up was easy and output was crisp and clean.
The first issue came when I tried to print 2-sided which resulted in a tumble print vs head to head. The second issue came when using the ADF for the first time. First issue was resolved by downloading a different print driver - which was new for me — my question being why was this necessary and why wasn’t I instructed to do that during initial setup? Still working on the second issue. While the Brother Support site helped resolve the first issue, it was not for the second.

TWO HOURS on the phone making you try different things on the printer to FINALLY tell you ok we will send you a REFURB! Now the problem is it's been several days and no tracking no confirmation for ticket or trouble. Would never buy another brother printer again.

Overall Pleased
There are many features I like including the top loading scanner, multi use paper tray, double sided and duplex printing, easy setup, and mobile printing. There does however seem to be a delay in the start and during printing/scanning functions. This may be something where I can change a few settings for better performance. I've found that if I scan as black and white it appears to function incredibly faster (faster than I'd expect with only change being switching from color. However on the printing alone, I'm a little stumped on the delay. That does interfere with the 33 ppm output. Overall, I'm pleased enough with the other features that I'm not going to let the delay be an issue.

The printing results are flawless and the economy of toner cost is fantastic. My toner costs have been reduced by at least 75% from my previous printer by another maker. While this printer is slightly slower to warm up and start printing, once started, it is very fast and makes up for this very slight delay. I believe I have found my "forever" printer.

I've used many Brother Printers over the years and have found them to be very functional, hardworking, long lasting units. This printer is no exception. The only negative I have about this printer is that it won't do automatic duplex scanning. You have to duplex scan manually. Other than that, this is a terrific printer.

Excellent All-In-One Laser for Home & Small Office
After reviewing various consumer product rating publications I selected this Brother MFC-L8610CDW based on both predicted reliability and features. I'm glad I did - it is working great as my primary home printer/scanner. I have two computers (one iMac and one MacBook Air connected to the printer via WiFi. I did have to reinstall the Brother driver software and fiddle a bit to get the scanner button on the device to connect with my computers. The trick was to make sure, when you attempt the first scan from the MFC-L8610CDW, to go back to your computer and pres "accept" on the two firewall security messages that will show up. After that, everything worked great!

Stay away from Brother Printer, It's a a BAD BAD PURCHASE. I just recently purchased a Brother MFC-L3770CDW printer, and paid almost $600. The black toner went out in few prints. I hardly printed like 50 pages. LOL. And after emailing the customer service multiple times, they said you would have to buy new toner. I just bought two laser printers from other brands, never had any issue. So, stay away, they have zero customer service. BAD PURCHASE!! DISAPPOINTED!!

Slow to start printing, QBP check print problems
This unit is much slower to start printing that my prior office printers. Once it is set to the quiet mode the sound level is OK. One aggravation I have not found a solution to is getting checks to print from the MP feeder. I have tried a dozen different suggestions and QBP checks try to print horizontally. I would have returned this if I could have for this reason.

Connectivity issues
The process of getting 4 office computers set up to connect with this printer is way more complicated then it should be. Multiple tech support calls in to Staples Tech Support (where we bought the printer from and bought the tech support warranty as well) ended up advising us the DOWNGRADE our internet service from 5G to 2.4G as this printer is not used to such high end internet speed. I'm still confused on that ...... meanwhile connectivity issues still exist
Our relation ship status with this printer? ..... It's complicated.

BLACK LINE-BEWARE
Black line appeared after 4 months in use only when using print from feed. Followed all directions to clean. Webiste has videos and the compartment near the white guard on the inside cover does not open per video. It is not manufactured as videos indicate. The AIO has to be physically brought to an authorized repair and they claim it is not covered under the general warranty. Good luck finding that warranty on the website. So now I have to physically carry it out of the office? Hire a strong man? Had an IT person set up initial installation for 7-person office. Too difficult to set up double-sided printing, options are minimal. Copying from glass cuts off edges. Not a great solution, but a cheap one.

Good printer but no great
As a printer the printouts are great. The speed of printing is not the fastest medium sized print jobs of < 50 pages take quite a long time to complete the printing. The document scanner does not handle duplex document automatically. For a printer of this size the paper tray should hold a full ream of paper which it does not, which means for a busy office a lot of paper fills are needed.

great features
good machine for the price. color photos come out great. using this machine in a small law firm. customer service was great when we needed someone to help with scanning so it would compress files to a smaller pdf . only thing i wish it did was double side copying without having to turn page manually.

Not reliable for printing 2 sided pages
As some other buyers have stated, the Brother MFC-L8610CDW color laser printer works reliably except for two sided printing of files and documents from the computer. Print commands from the computer and the set up on printer for 2 sided printing do not guarantee the printer will print a 2 sided document. It is very frustrating to waste paper as the printer does not default to 2 sided printing even after many tries. Brother as a manufacturer should patch the software drivers to allow for more user friendly 2 sided printing set up.

Nothing but issues!
The day I received the printer, I took it out of the box, plugged it into the wall, hooked it up to the network, and it worked perfectly
But this would not remain the case
The very next day, the printer could not find the network and no laptops could find the pinter. Nothing changed, it just simply went offline. I spent days troubleshooting, rebooting, looking online, making sure it was not my network, etc.
Than one day, it reappears. From here, we had this battle every few days. I was constantly rebooting it, reentering the network and so forth.
This printer is also very very very slow. It takes forever to receive data, and when it finally does, it prints at a snails pace.
The color when it comes out is also terrible, often times leaving streaks everywhere.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRINTER

Easy set-up and user friendly multi-function !
Love my new machine ! If I could change one thing, I would have the document feeder be capable of duplex copying - the old machine had that function. This was you must use the flatbed to copy one side, then flip over and copy the back side.

USER FRIENDLY
Great machine for the money, very user friendly and great quality print. If your wanting a color machine that has good quality and not $2k this is it, scanner is great and fast for those who use this also.

Awesome Printer
Our last Brother printer is still going strong after 9 years of daily use in our home office, but we decided to add this one after another brand color printer failed and we couldn’t be more pleased. Love all the features like 2 sided printing - that will save so much paper! Brother printers are the best on the market.

So glad we chose this printer
We debated and reviewed several color laser printers. At first we thought the Brother 8610 was perhaps more than we needed. It was bigger and heavier. But now we see how well made it is. The printer materials are quality not plastic. It is quiet and does everything. Certainly recommend it.

Brother - MFC-L8610CDW
Purchase 3 MFC machine because of the features I read online. The machine has the bells and whistles but functionality is very poor. Works great for printing 1 or 2 documents. But for my business and needing to print in multiples both color and black&white, machine hangs up keep saying "processing data". Even when trying to delete from the printer it hangs up with "Deleting Data" and never clear the cach. It printed the same document all night over and over.

Simple yet sophisticated
Overall very happy with this product, setup was simple on all of my machines (Win 10, Win 7, and even Ubuntu Linux. We commonly need to print using limited paper supply and this printer will have no issues printing to the last piece of paper in the tray. Prints full color pages quite well, with no streaking or other common issues.

So far so good
So far, everything is fine. I am disappointed in the printing of envelopes because the input tray takes priority for all printing, so I have to insert an envelope each time that I want to print one. Otherwise, when I am trying to print a full page, it will try to print on the envelope. Scanning works well. Everything OK after just one month.

Great machine with multiple functions
I have had this machine for almost a year, and no issues except for a small hangup when doing an software update, in which it was no fault of the machine as I accidentally bumped the surge protector and shut it off. Warranty took care of the problem, which was a simple reset. I would recommend this machine.

Pretty good unit but has some minor issues
I love the quality of the printing, scanning and copying. I love the automatic document feeder. However I do have some issues with the scanner in that it does not scan the entire 8.5 inch width of the paper. It cuts off about an eighth of an inch on both sides. When scanning a hand written document one has to be careful not to write to the edge of the paper. I also have a design issue. It is that the MP tray output exits to the rear of the machine rather than the front where the tray 1 printed output goes. It also tends to put a curl on card stock which is not serious but not convenient either. Between the MP input tray and MP output tray, it adds significantly to the footprint of the unit and complicates where to situate it. I suspect that the reason for the design of the MP tray in put and output was to keep the unit short enough to remain a desktop model rather than one that needs to be put on the floor or a short table. I guess you take the bad with the good. Over all I like the unit and its performance.

I bought two more!
I have a very busy medical office that requires a lot of printing of patient instructions brochures flyers charge reports and patient records. I’ve gone through a lot of commercial quality printers and this is the best so far with excellent prices on their toner.

Excellent machine for the money.
We have been using Brother printers for many years. This one provides the desired wireless feature. It is a great printer and I have no problem recommending it to anyone. Also, your technical support team is great. We had a problem with a paper jam right after we received the printer and they methodically and patiently worked with us to clear it. Thanks for keeping the quality up in all aspects.

Recto verso’s scan
It’s a good printer, just the scan option via de feeder are not optimal for the price are quoted by this printer.
The scan recto verso via the feeder are a pain in the daily ops. Need to put manually the documents on the flat bed to scan recto verso.

A solid multi-function product, frugal on ink
A solid multi-function product, frugal on ink, with outstanding vivid color copies. The scan function took a little time to figure out, especially when the target for the scan is a remote computer; but once understood, the scanner works flawlessly. The copy function is good, but I do wish it had greater flexibility in enlargements or reductions sizing.

Easy to setup and use
I have had brother printers in the past and always had great experiences. This one is no exception. Easy to setup and use. One of the first things I look for is toner cost and this printer is on the lower side as far as toner cost. Output quality is great and wifi use was an added bonus. Highly recommend this product to anyone that wants a laser printer that will last.

Better than so-o-o many
Historically I have worked in "corporate world" using commercial grade multi-functional (usually leased high-end type machines for an office environment. Being a small business, we do NOT lease therefore we need to buy what we need. Had a different manufacturer product and got almost four years out of it. Was disappointed from the beginning that machine was complicated to operate. Our new Brother MFC-L8610CDW acts and functions more like the commercial machines I am use to using. Smooth scans, no matter what the original thickness is (4 year machine hung 50% of the time scanning 3-part documents, it did not like the thickness.)

Excellent Product
This is an excellent product. I especially like the toner color which replaces the old inkjet printers. Now copies and scans are in color which adds a terrific dimension. I also like the auto feed feature which allows multiple pages to be scanned rather than manually feeding one page at a time into the system.
