Overview
A busy workroom with several users is where this Brother multifunction laser fits, printing, copying, scanning and faxing from one body. A color touchscreen drives the menus, and mobile printing runs through Brother iPrint&Scan and Wi-Fi Direct.
Speed, a feeder and expandable trays make it a capable shared machine. The limit is that it handles black only, and some listing fields, such as the copy volume, hold placeholders.
Who it's for
Offices with steady paperwork and a few shared users get the most from the feeder and fax. Households, color work and light printing do not need this much machine.
Pros and cons
- Fast black and white output
- Automatic document feeder
- Print, copy, scan and fax
- Automatic two-sided printing
- Black and white output only
- Heavy for a desk
- Placeholder entries in the spec table
Performance notes
The laser engine sets the page rate, and the feeder handles multi-page originals without anyone at the glass. Duplex is the default for printing, with single-pass copy, scan and fax. Optional trays extend paper capacity for larger runs.
