Well in short it does what its supposed to do print! There are several trays for the home office user and it can be setup for wireless use. Make sure you have fiddled with networks before. This is not a "learning Printer". The instructions are clear just follow them. If I have a down side on this printer it would be:
The fax capability
The bulky size
The fax speed is based on old protocol speeds (My very first faxing printer was 1900 range. This ones speed is no greater that the fax machines of the late 80's and 90's (but thats ok...just about "every fax and printfax machines" are all built on the same structure) Check for yourself and see :)
It is big. The thing takes up a large portion of my desk space. If you buy this consider having a end table or something of the like to put it on. (This baby is "standalone" or get a long enough cord if not wireless)
Otherwise a relatively fast printer. buy extra black ink. that goes the quickest.

I use this All-in-One to keep my office paperless: scanning in documents so I don't have to keep hard copies.
It works fine for this, EXCEPT that it's pretty slow transferring scanned files to my computer over WiFi. I expect speeds would improve if the device were connected with a network or USB cable.
Otherwise, it's a decent little machine; the software is fine, the print quality is good, and the scans come through clear.

Comments about Canon PIXMA MX860 Wireless Office All-In-One Printer:
We use this at home for business and personal use.Nice and quiet compared to the noisy Dell all in one printer we had before.It comes packaged very securely. After we removed all the styrofoam and plastic that is taped into place,there were some imperfections on the painted silver top. After being without a printer for 2 wks.we can't be without one any longer so we are keeping it. It still works great. One person complained about the speed of printing, doesn't bother us and it's quiet. Get a laser printer if you want fast. Good price [...] Thank You!

I've only had this printer for a few days, but so far I am very happy. Have been a big HP printer fan in the past but grew tired of software issues. The Canon software loaded up easily and I had four computer connected wirelessly in no time.

Comments about Canon PIXMA MX860 Wireless Office All-In-One Printer:
I really like this printer because of its all-in-one features. Pretty easy to use after you set it up. The wireless connection is a big plus. It is fairly bulky and heavy so you need to clear a lot of space for it.

this printer was easy to setup, and it was up and running in just a few minutes. It has features not found on more expensive machines, like; automatic double sided scanning, and automatic double sided printing. It also has photo quality output, and quickly, too. A good deal all around.

Comments about Canon PIXMA MX860 Wireless Office All-In-One Printer:
I run my consulting business out of my home office and after having this printer just one week all I can say is that I wish I had gotten it earlier. Great versatility and love the wireless set-up, which is easy if you use the CD and follow the directions. The inital set up requires you to have the printer and at least one computer hooked up with a cable - after that it's all wireless! I've scanned, faxed, printed and copied and highly recommend. Don't be frightened by B&H's prices they really are that good [...]

Comments about Canon PIXMA MX860 Wireless Office All-In-One Printer:
I have recently had to make invitations for a baby shower and a retirement party. It did a great job on quality card stock paper for more than 500 invitations. The color was good, nice speed too. I am enjoying the display screen and look forward to using the memory card feature soon. Easy to use, nice quality.

Easy to set up and use, though a little large for on the desk. Love the scanning features. Only minor complaint is the significant delay that precedes most print and copy commands. Otherwise, I like it more than the HP All-in-One it replaced.
