I retired from the daily grind just after the CZU fire and Covid. I currently don't see many repairs on larger and heavier printers because I would need to carry the printers up and down 50 stairs to work on them. I also don't have the necessary bench space available. My current customers are mostly home users who normally don't need or purchase big and heavy business class printers. I haven't worked on any MFC-L8905CDW printers but have recently cleaned a similar model after an aftermarket toner cartridge dumped toner everywhere. I didn't see anything unusual when I tested it. The old MFC-9840CDW (discontinued) was not a good printer. Two of my customer bought them many years ago. As I vaguely recall, the colors did not print true, the color self-calibration didn't quite work, and I had to clean toner from the belt with almost every cartridge change. I don't recall any component failures or replacement. The rubber parts, which are usually the first to die, held up well, mostly because the printer was lightly used.
