Color documents change how an office communicates, and the MFC-L3780CDW brings print, copy, scan and fax into one color laser machine that fits a real desk instead of a dedicated closet. Thirty-one pages per minute of 2400 x 600 dpi output keeps queues moving, automatic two-sided printing trims paper costs on every job, and the 2.7-inch touchscreen makes walk-up tasks a matter of taps.

Frequently Asked Questions

- Does it print on both sides automatically?
- Yes, duplex printing is automatic on this model, for both color and black-and-white jobs.
- Can the whole office share it?
- Yes, over wireless or Ethernet every device reaches it, and USB remains for a direct connection.
- Does it handle multipage scanning?
- Yes, the automatic document feeder feeds stacks through for scanning, copying and faxing unattended.

With the full fax-and-feeder feature set, duplex output and wireless sharing in a genuinely desk-sized machine, the MFC-L3780CDW is the complete color document hub small offices keep recommending to each other.
