Great Truck Stop Fax Machine! [Posted on 2006-08-18] Our HP 4-in-one unit kept jamming and we were losing business. We asked out local computer repairman to replace the HP with a unit that provide better service and he brought us this Brother MFC-8220. What difference! This is a workhorse. The straight paper path is the main benefit as we have had no jams. These truckers bring all kinds of paperwork in to be faxed and this is important to us.
Champion [Posted on 2006-08-25] This device might seem older to you than some of the fancier network multifunction printers; but I must say that the drivers are simple and don't take space in your ram. The HP software is enormous and is always wanting you to update it. Sorry too messy for me. Brother is the CHAMPION of the small to large office multifunction printers. For the price these can't be beat.
Gathers dust on the Floor... [Posted on 2007-08-16] I have never gotten this machine to work properly. The screen keeps saying "Selection & Set" and beeps angrily at me no matter which button I push. I did get it to dial a fax number a few times, but each time when the other machine picked up it just sat there and didn't take the page or transmit. Nor is there any way to hang up the fax, so after the other machine hangs up you have to hear "if you'd like to make a call, please hang up..." I can't get it to do a damn thing and neither can anyone else who's looked at it, and yes we've read the manual. I'm sorry I bought it online, otherwise I would have taken it back months ago-- packing it up and toting it to the post office is such a huge pain, so it's been gathering dust in the corner. Maybe I just got a bad one, I don't know, but from now on I think I'll buy big stuff like this from a place where I can take it back easily if I have problems.
2 years and out [Posted on 2008-11-15] We have had 2 brothers MFC machines the latest was MFC-8220 the one before was the same, I am not sure it had the same number but both worked well as a fax and laser printer for 2 years before a plastic gear broke. Both machines had the same problem in about the same length of time.
Great machine for first 2 years [Posted on 2008-12-17] I echo the findings of the other owner whose machine had a broken plastic gear after 2 years. Worked great, then nothing-to expensive for repair.
