Brother MFC-L8930CDW Business Color Laser All-in-One Printer with Duplex Print, Scan, Copy, Low-Cost Printing, and Advanced Security Features

So far I feel like I've died and going to heaven, after having a series of inkjet printers over the years. This is a pretty large printer for a home office, but the footprint isn't that much bigger than my Inc. jet it's just taller. It's quiet. So far it's run flawlessly. I haven't tried scanning or copying just printing. I have had to catch up on a lot of printing for a project. I'm working on so even with the much larger tray I seem to run out of paper frequently, but then I've gone through two reams of paper in just a few I knew when I bought it that the initial ink cartridges were going to be less than what you would get in a regular cartridge so I was a little bit surprised that I was already getting indications that the ink is less than half full. Just as a sidenote, I was actually looking at the earlier model and it was sold out everywhere and then I found this one for $400 less and even though it was way more money that I wanted to spend on a printer I'm kind of glad every place was out of stock on something that was virtually the same but price tire

This works with CUPS on Linux using driverless IPP Everywhere support. There's no need to install any vendor-specific drivers or PPD files or similar. Just add ipps://hostname-or-ip/ipp/print to CUPS and you're done. It also works with Airprint on macOS and works with Windows 7's old support for IPP; note that Brother's drivers for Windows seem to be required for W7 IPP. I don't know if newer versions of Windows support driverless IPP Everywhere. I haven't tried the scanner, copy, or fax functions yet. But scanning looks reasonable: the documentation claims support for scanning to a USB thumb drive and scanning to an SFTP server. Cloud/internet features are disabled by default. IPv4 and IPv6 can be configured independently. The printer has an HTTPS web administration interface that looks reasonable. This is great for a home office.

I think this machine is a good fit for our use case. Setup was quick, print quality is sharp for both color and black-and-white documents, and duplex scanning saves real time. It keeps up with a busy workload without any fuss so far. It's a big, sturdy machine, so measure your space first — but overall, reliable and worth it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second Brother printer that I've owned and I'm always so pleased with the operation. Setup is a breeze with the assistance of the setup wizard. I use this primarily for scanning and color printing and both work beautifully. Not too large in size but big enough to handle large jobs. Prints quickly and the scan feature is extremely high quality. A good value if you're looking for an office printer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This brand always surprises me. I've used it before, but I'm thrilled with this printer. Its various functions make all the work easier and faster. Its design is very practical, and the screen is very user-friendly. I highly recommend it.

This machine was easy to set up, it scans very quickly, and the print quality is good. The software is an app that practically self-installs the printer on your computer. My only complaint is the app is very slow to start up. Other than that this machine has been a dream compared to the Canon MFS743CDW we had before it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup is straightforward, and the large touchscreen makes navigation and daily tasks incredibly easy. Printing speeds are fast, even for color jobs, and the automatic duplex printing, scanning, copying, Scanning is quick and accurate, especially with the automatic document feeder for multi-page jobs. Save lots of paper and time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is huge. But the quality makes up for it. It was so easy to set up. It isn't loud and feels very well made. I haven't had to buy ink yet so I can't say how expensive that will be. This printer is so worth it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am genuinely impressed with how much smoother my workdays feel since getting the Brother MFC L8930CDW. The printing quality is crisp and vibrant, the scanner is fast, and the connection is always stable whether I am using WiFi or my laptop. I also love how quietly it runs even when I am printing a lot of pages for my business. The touchscreen is very intuitive and makes switching between printing, scanning and copying feel effortless. It has honestly taken a huge weight off my workload because everything is fast, organized and consistent. This printer feels like a real upgrade to my office and I am so happy with it.

We bought this printer for business because Brother is supposed to be good with toner, but the cartridges depleted very quickly and the machine refuses to print anymore when toner is low. We have searched high and low for a way to make it ignore the low toner and finish the cartridges, but the manual has no solution and the online solutions that worked for older machines DO NOT WORK. Awful! What's more, the machine will not stop beeping every time it prints. I have turned off the beep in the settings and set the volume to mute. I even updated the firmware to see if that fixes the issue. It still beeps as loudly as it can. Obnoxious! Do better, Brother!
