Customer Reviews

MFC-L6800DW is rated 4.6 out of 5 by 67.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Guter Ersatz für den alten Drucker Wir haben den Drucken vor gut einem Jahr gekauft und sind fast vollends zufrieden. Das Einzige, was ganz plötzlich nicht mehr funktioniert, ist das Scannen auf den PC. Es wurde weder am Drucker, noch am PC etwas geändert. Scannen auf USB funktioniert, auch Scannen über das Control Center, aber eben nicht mehr via Scanfunktion am Drucker selbst.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Printer! Really Fast Scans with great quality even with default settings! It is one of the few printers left in this category that actually has direct FTP capabilities. That's much better than shackling you to a cloud service!! Print quality is great and very fast! The color display is very nice. Shortcut configurations are easy to setup. The faxing side works well. I'm very pleased with this purchase!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Uitstekende AIO voor de dagelijks gebruik Sinds 3 weken nu in bezit van deze printer en ik ben aangenaam verrast door de geweldige scan en netwerkfuncties. Het gemak en de efficiëntie van het duplex scannen van documenten overtroffen mijn verwachtingen. Nog niet alle functies gebruikt maar printen en scannen zijn top.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Brother MFC-L6800DW - The All-in-One you want. The Brother MFC-L6800DW All-in-One is a solidly built device that is capable of handling just about all of your copying, printing, faxing and scanning needs with ease. These days, two-sided capability is a necessity to help cut-down on paper usage and save trees. And the MFC-L6800DW has that capability built into all of its functions. The toner saver feature means that it can make more prints / copies without giving up print quality. The color display is clear and bright, and the menu system is straight forward and easy to navigate. The Brother MFC-L6800DW has more capabilities designed into it than I currently need. But in my case, these additional features future-proofs this device when it comes time that I need these features. Meaning I won't need to go out and buy yet another device with the additional features I might need at that time. They are already here in the Brother MFC-L6800DW. I bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW to replace an aging Brother MFC-9700 All-In-One that I bought new and used for 14 years. The Brother MFC-9700 worked flawlessly the entire time I owned it. In fact, I gave it to a friend of mine that is still using it today. So in my opinion, why consider another brand. I decided to go with my experience in owning the Brother MFC-9700 and bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW. And so far, based on reviews about similar machines from other manufacturers, I am glad I bought the Brother MFC-L6800DW.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice machine I've used my 6800 for 3 years. It has all the features I need. I get great support from Brother. My computer wouldn't recognize my printer after I had worked away from home, using a different computer. I was able to go to the Brother website and download the correct drivers again.
