Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction Center With Wireless And Ethernet Network Interfaces
 I owned a HP multifunction inkjet printer PS 950 series over the last couple of years and got tired of filling in ink quite frequently. I had made up my mind that the next printer I got needs to be a Laser Multi Function with either Etheret or ideally Wireless capability. Color would have been ideal but was willing to settle for a good Black and White. After some good research I stumbled upon this printer and it has everything I needed at the right price. I bought this printer online during Thanksgiving for 100$ off. So it was icing on the cake. I got the printer today and got it up and running in a hour or so. The freedom to keep the printer anywhere in the house is very refreshing. The drivers were quite easy to install for my XP/Vista machines (although I have heard that drivers for Win7 are not out yet). The feeder is great for copying. The only downside is that the overall construction of the printer doesnt look that robust. The plastic on the door ,for example, is quite flimsy. Buy Brother MFC 7840W Lowest Price, Order Now!

Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction Center With Wireless And Ethernet Network Interfaces
I read a lot of reviews before eventually settling on this all-in-one printer. I wanted a laser because I don't print much and didn't want the ink drying out (that and I hate the way inkjets print). I also wanted a scanner to digitize my pictures and documents so I can email them. And I wanted a copier. (No use for a fax so I can't comment on that function.) And I particularly wanted wireless to reduce clutter and enable me to locate the printer anywhere. This model fit all those needs. I printed a Word document, copied it, and scanned a Christmas card--all looked good to me. I read some people had problems with the wireless connectivity. Not me. I input my WEP key and the printer hooked up to my router with no further help (follow the quick start guide). Then I loaded the software on my PC and it printed/scanned without any configuration on my part. Piece of cake. I did have to skip the paperport function on the install because it's not set up for Windows 7 yet, but Brother's releasing updated software in early December so that should sort itself out then. I also read the printer caused lights to flicker and PCs to switch to UPS when it kicked on. I plugged it into it's own outlet and have had no problems. I'm not a small business so my needs are basic and undemanding. Some reviewers thought this unit was a bit flimsy. Maybe, but I think with reasonable care the personal user isn't going to break it. It's hard to beat the functionality for this price (I bought it from Amazon for $284 with free shipping.) Buy Brother MFC 7840W Lowest Price, Order Now!

Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction Center With Wireless And Ethernet Network Interfaces
I bought the Brother MFC-7830W about 11 months ago now. I did some pretty heavy research before making the investment and decided that this was what was the best bet within our budget.
We use it in a home office, but have not set up the fax yet. We only needed this as a copier, scanner and laser printer. As far as those two features go this has been a great deal for the money. The print quality probably isn't the best possible for photos but it does a decent job for text and it photocopies sheet music quite well. What do you need a black and white copier for photos for anyway?
We've used this thing fairly heavily for a home office. I just checked the counter and it is at 4,203 copies. I have two computers running to it one is running Windows Vista and the other is an iMac OSX 10.4. Both of them print and scan to/from it without any problems via a wireless router.
The only negatives I've run into with this is that we've gone through the initial toner cartridge and a hi-capacity cartridge in less than a year. My guess is we're about half way through another Hi-Capacity cartridge. Also the glass is a little small for copying large books, so it can be a bit of a struggle capturing things like sheet music at times. I actually decided it was faster for me to scan 15 pages on my Epson flat bed scanner and print it out of Adobe InDesign. My girlfriend is a teacher and uses it to photocopy text books for worksheets etc. She never complains about that so it probably will work for most applications unless your a picky print/graphics snob like me. The Brother MFC-7830W scanner doesn't produce a very high quality scan so don't expect to use its scanner for professional quality graphic design work. However, it will work in a pinch if you're on deadline and your Epson flakes out.
All in all a great buy for the money.
