Our Verdict

Brother MFC-L8905CDW [MFC-L8895CDW, MFC-L8900CDW]

Canon Color imageCLASS MF753Cdw/MF751Cdw

The Brother MFC-L8905CDW is better for most uses than the Canon Color imageCLASS MF756Cdw/MF754Cdw. The Brother has an ADF with a higher sheet capacity, scans documents more quickly, has faster printing speeds, and has lower cost-per-print. If you need to scan thick items frequently, the Canon printer's scanner lid has a wider height adjustment range, so it can more easily accommodate thicker books and documents.
