Brother MFC-8520DN Monochrome laser

Very fast delivery, two days ahead of schedule (ordered on Sun 30 Nov, scheduled for delivery on 4 Dec, delivered on Tuesday 2 Dec). Package in good condition. Device connected to ethernet network (RJ45 cable on PLC powerline). Very easy to install on a Linux PC Ubuntu 22.04: 1 - Switch on the Brother MFC 8520DN. 2 - On the PC (connected to the internet), launch the add printer utility. 3 - Select Network Printer then Brother MFC 8520DN 4 - Click on next => the search and installation of drivers is automatic. First tests (from a PC running Linux Ubuntu 22.04) : - Good quality recto/verso printing (even in eco mode) - Scanning: The application installed by default on Ubuntu works very well. Not yet tested: Fax (I have no use for it), printing from smartphone or tablet (not a priority, I'll see later). Important note: One of the sheet guides on the main feed tray was not adjusted for A4 (height). => Take the tray out, push the depth slide as far as it will go, up to the stop, and put the tray back in place, taking care to lift it slightly as you push it to prevent the slide from moving again, brushing against the "ceiling" of the slot as you push. So I'm very happy with this choice.

It's actually working well so far, but setting up the ScanToEmail function, which is important for us, is still taking time because it requires a firmware update. This was not visible on the sales page, but the printer was labelled with this function. A small obstacle is that the printer is labelled entirely in French and the display can only be switched to English and Dutch. None of this is a disaster, but it's still a drawback because the print and scan function has yet to be integrated into the local network.

Device in perfect condition! Excellent packaging and transport.
