I checked Brother's web site because I also wanted to know about this feature, and this printer does reduce/enlarge, from 25% to 400% of the original size.

Negative multifunction. I bought this printer but returned it within a few days, just was not up to what I expected. I purchased a Brother MFC-956OCDW and months down the road I am happy with my decision. Keep in mind that you will not find the perfect printer, at least not at a price we can afford; but, the Brother delivers. I purchased a MFC-7420N in 2005 and will sell it on eBay just as soon as I have the time. There's other excellent multifunction color laser printers on the market, so, shop around but my advice is: stay away from Konica Minolta. Bill Hilly

The auto document feeder now duplexs its copies (can automatically copy both sides of a sheet) on the MP830. And there's a significant improvement when printing graphics and photos due to the higher resolution on the MP830. The display is in colour on the MP830, and you can preview your photos on the display. There's also a card reader in the MP830. And finally, the MP830 prints all documents faster than the MP780.The MP830 does use different inks; the chipped ink cartridge makes it hard to refill (but not impossible; doing so will increase the likelyhood of voiding your warranty).

I'm sorry that I don't have an answer as I don't have Windows 8 and I returned the printer because I wanted a newer model.

Automatically, I believe. I think it just has the one paper loader (top/vertical loading) and it has paper-size spacers that you use to select the size of paper going in. At least, you set the width of the paper. I think the software is really what sets the actual size of the paper being fed into the printer.

My 610 works and produces above the norm consistently, had it since 2007 and I've had HP's, Epson's , etc and what really makes the 610 shine is to scan, save to desktop, and attach to an email, documents, photos, text and flawlessy. In fact I got Canons website for upgrades for software etc. and thought why??????????????. If it ain't broke........................Good all around every day machine but a photo above 8x10 should be handled by a Canon, I believe 9000 pro or an Epson 3880 for superior print quality!

Not if I am careful to use good (I use hp paper) paper. This great printer will feed envelopes very well. I use that feature to play around with fonts for Christmas cards and gifts. While looking for a good printer for another location I I had bad results with several of the highest rated (by consumer's union) hp printers. This happened in a very dry climate using old paper. I bought new paper and still had feed problems with other hp models. When trying this (8600) - the feed problems just went away. I believe the dry climate drys and stiffens the paper, taxing any printer's feed system. If you are in a dry (or very humid) climate, read all hp instructions about paper storage, loading and feeding. One other problem I brought on myself at the dry climate location - I bought the 8600 at a retailer (big box store). Never again. I bought my latest 8600 directly from hp to get hp support. Best printer decision I ever made. HP warranty and support is world class or better and the first year support is free. I've extended my hardware and hp system support. Next best money I ever spent. Hope this helps you.

I'm surprised, I think the document feeder is the best I've personally experienced of at least 4 printers of different makes. I would tell you about the same as Craig Kuper - thinking it is possibly the type of paper or try one of the techniques to create an air spacing temporarily between the pages. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Chuk, the feeder on top is only for the copier, the software for scanning only handles on page at a time, you adjust then add the next page <edit> which can be in the feeder <end edit>. You can print non-standard paper, I used thicker than 50lbs paper(cardstock) when printing on parchment for for a project my son put together. Envelopes twist very easy so you can only load ~10 into the tray and have them print correctly. Very solid performance and a word of advice if you choose to pick up this model. after the toner is reports it is out, you still have many pages of toner left in that cartridge, Keep using it until a color fades, then change. I've done >200 on Black and around 100 on the colors.

I sold my printer 6 months ago. It still performed beautifully, no problems with any functions. I was very impressed with that printer, it was as solid as a rock. I only sold it because I moved and needed a smaller printer.

The HP 7520 will reduce the size of text documents from legal to letter if you want to print a legal size document on letter size paper. To the best of my knowledge that does not work in reverse. It does not change the size of documents or graphics the way a graphic's program will do. If you're using a Windows operating system it will include among the accessories a program called Paint. In Paint you can change the size of images and then print to the HP 7520. I hope this information helps you.

I have a C309g-m, which was cheaper and is a grotesque piece of garbage, in every way possible. I don't know anything about yours, so can't offer an opinion except to say I'll never buy an HP printer again. I had to get rid of a great Cannon printer that was perfect, but could not attach it to my new HP. Always a new rip off just around the corner. Good luck keeping that pig in ink.

By default, the printer warms up and goes into "normal" print quality mode, not "best" (what you want) or "fast" (poor/draft quality). It does this for many reasons, primarily to save ink since most people print typical documents containing mostly text, not graphics. You can always change the printer's quality from normal to best by going to: Devices & Printers -&gt; Brother mfc-j6520dw -&gt; Adjust Print Options. If you mostly print images that require hi-resolution (lots of ink), you can set "best" quality as your default.

I have the MX860. It is a pretty crummy scanner for people who occasionally scan legal documents. If you are using the Auto Document Feeder (ADF), you will need to change the settings in the desktop scanning software every time that you use a legal document. There are no controls on the printer itself. You will also need to change it back to Letter when you switch document sizes. You will also need to change the settings separately for "Save to PC," "Save as PDF file," "Attach to E-mail," and "Open with Application." Each of these also has different settings which must be changed if you are scanning on the glass or using the ADF OR if it is one-sided (simplex) or two-sided (duplex). While scanning on the glass, there is an "Auto Detect" document size option. If you are using the ADF, there is no "Auto Detect." For a device sold in 2009, it really should be simpler.

I've only scanned a handful of docs-seems to work good. Our multi page feeder works great. We have the 8910 at our front desk-small healthcare office & I have our old 8860 back by my desk & that still works good including multi feeder after 5 or 6 years. We like the Brother machines after several bad experiences with HP. Good luck. Jim

Seems to me a very funny question! Of course it could print any size you specify! But I would like to know how is the photo quality? Since this is an "office" jet, not a "photo" smart machine, I would like to know how it compares to the top-rated photo-smart printers from HP.

Howdy! 8) I can't find any info on this site or HP's site about manual feeds for this printer. I do some printing on fine art metals and need to hand feed the metal paper (usually through a slot in the back) so it doesn't bend. Usually when your printer feeds from a paper tray, it grabs the paper and bends it up, into and through the printer. But fine art metals don't bend so they can't feed through the auto/paper tray. Does anyone know if there's a manual feed option on the B8550 that would keep the paper flat?
