ECONOMIC STIMULATION ADVICE NEEDED….If I can be allowed to abuse my blogging position for a moment, does anyone have any advice about buying a laser-based multifunction device? I need all four main functions ? print, scan, fax, copy ? and it has to be laser-based since I have a (possibly irrational) hatred of inkjet printers. The Brother MFC-8440 seems like the leading contender right now, but I’m wide open to other suggestions if you have personal experience to share. Price range should be between $400-$800.
