Key Advantages

The Brother MFC-8710DW provides reliable all-in-one functionality, reducing the need for multiple devices. Wireless connectivity enhances flexibility and allows printing from smartphones and tablets. Automatic duplex printing lowers paper consumption and increases productivity. The 250-sheet paper tray reduces frequent refills, suitable for moderate office workloads. The multi-function design integrates scanning and faxing into one machine, saving space. Its compatibility with several mobile printing solutions simplifies remote printing tasks.

Limitations

The MFC-8710DW is a monochrome laser printer, which means it cannot print color documents, limiting its use for color-intensive tasks. Its print speed, rated at around 23 pages per minute, may be slower compared to some newer models. The 64 MB memory might restrict performance on very large or complex print jobs. The device's design and feature set reflect its 2012 release, lacking some modern connectivity options like NFC. Fax modem speed and advanced fax features are somewhat basic by today's standards. Additionally, the scanner is limited to flatbed scanning without an automatic document feeder, reducing efficiency for scanning multi-page documents.
