Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have been using the MFC-8710DW for about a year and have had no trouble at all. I am constantly scanning in invoices on the auto feeder and receipts on the Glass table without any trouble or issues. I scan anywhere from 300-600 pages a month.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We scanned a lot of old bills, and the scanner worked very well, although with an occasional (and not unexpected) misfeed. I was pretty happy with the way it worked.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I actually love how easy it was to set up. I scan up to 100 pages at a time at no time speed in black & white. Of course you can scan in color it's a little slower though.
