Hi all,
I got myself an early Christmas present today, and am happily rocking my first

I'm also a fan of Brother printers. Mine is working beautifully from all
the various devices here, including Android, Linux, Macintosh, and
Windows.
Mine is the MFC7860DW which I picked up as an open box item at Newegg a

I set a timer for 15 minutes and a little later asked Siri what the timer was
