Brother MFC-8890DW

The Brother MFC-8890DW is an all-in-one black and white laser printer that is suitable for small to medium-sized businesses and is a step up from the MFC-8860DN.  The unit includes print, copy, scan, and fax capabilities to provide all-round office printing functionality.  It is more advanced than the MFC-8860DN since it includes wireless connectivity which the MFC-8860DN lacks, making it capable of printing, scanning, and sending faxes wirelessly.
