Brother MFC-6800 Toner Cartridges

Brother MFC-6800 Printer Review

The Brother MFC-6800 has a low price tag considering its 4-in-1 design that allows it to print, copy, scan and fax documents, as well as a PC faxing feature that can send documents right from a user's computer. Expert reviews note that the laser printer's only setbacks are its ability to print only a monochrome output at slow speeds of 10 pages per minute. With its range of features that provides a balance between flexibility and output quality, the MFC-6800 is among the top picks in its class of multifunction small office printers.

The device provides users with a standard media capacity of 200 pages and a built-in memory of 8 MB that will allow it to support light-duty offices. Thanks to a small size of only 18x18x13 inches, this compact printer can share a desktop with a PC and connect directly to it with the provided USB port.

Each function comes with a bundle of dedicated elements, including a 30-sheet automatic document feeder for multiple-page scanning and an automatic fax redial button on the control panel. The front panel also includes a full number keypad for quick fax dialing, a small monochrome LCD for job progress notifications and an LED that will alert users when toners are running low.

Output quality stood well against expert tests, printing monochrome text and mixed graphics with crisp detail and a maximum resolution of 600x600 dpi using Brother MFC-6800 printer toner. Users can also copy a maximum of 99 duplicates from an original document with a consistent resolution of 600x600 dpi.

The machine uses a single black Brother MFC-6800 toner cartridge that can be replaced with a remanufactured supply from third-party vendors that is more cost-efficient than the OEM supplies. Each replacement Brother MFC-6800 toner cartridge can yield up to 2,200 pages.

Expert reviewers found very little issues with this unit, with solid output quality and a user-friendly control panel that overshadow its slow monochrome printing. Small, low-volume offices looking for an all-in-one printer will benefit from the MFC-6800.
