Brother Mfc-8710dw Takes Forever To Copy Pages.
Any suggestion would help. I assume the quality needs to be lowed. I have searched in the manual for 'quality' and it just talks about improving it. My copies come out darker than the original when I have it set to the lightest settings. I assume when I change the quality it will make the copies lighter. I find myself wanting to return this product because its not efficient and its wasting so much toner. (Also, collate doesn't exist unless you are using a usb, or computer to print? Side question, anyone know how to use collate when copying?)
