4 out of 5 stars 4 stars for printing, copying and -1 for scanning.......2007-01-03

printing with this is about the best i have seen in a really long time. copying is pretty quick and easy but scanning has something left to be desired. it takes forever and i still cant master it. i do sorta wish now that i do have it that i would have gotten a color printer but being i got a great deal at costco . com i really cant complain.

3 out of 5 stars Good printer - not so good scanner........2005-04-16

I have had my DCP-8040 for a week now. I wanted a laser printer, and I'm quite satisfied with this unit's printing abilities and speed. Its a great improvement over a cheap inkjet in every way, except for the lack of color - but I didn't have any particular need for color printouts.

But the feature that drew me to this unit was the 14-inch scanner on top. I would have bought a stand-alone printer if the scanner didn't tempt me. I have a standard scanner that I picked up for $20 at a sidewalk sale last year, and it works well. I bought it to scan my japanese laserdisc jackets (which are a little more than 12x12 inches). In order to scan the jackets with my old scanner, I had to scan each cover four times and then assemble the pieces. I thought with this new scanner I could cut that in half. But the scanning software Brother has provided leaves a LOT to be desired. For starters, you can't use the full plate. There is thus about an inch of glass that the scanner light covers, but cannot be accessed. That wouldn't be so bad, but except that its on BOTH edges! In other words, instead of placing what you want to scan in the corner along two edges, like with a normal scanner, you have to center it, carefully, by hand, along the exact center of one edge. Also, for some reason, my two scans are skewed way off somehow, such that if I try to blend the images together there are clearly missing portions along the sides, meaning I have to scan in four parts to get everything, and since this scanner doesn't scan any faster than my old $20 one at 300dpi, I've spent an extra $100 for nothing. Oh, also, my old scanner would turn the light off after a few minutes of inactivity. This unit's light is on AT ALL TIMES, unless you power the whole thing off. Cute.

So, my advise - skip this unit and go with a stand-alone Brother printer. And somebody else's scanner.
