Overview
Not a print-only unit, this Brother color laser also scans, copies and handles duplex jobs, with scan-to-cloud, email and SharePoint from the touchscreen. A newer, smaller body replaces the previous model, and an NFC reader supports badge sign-in.
Scanning is the strength here, with a deep feeder, fast two-sided capture and searchable output, and the security stack suits shared offices. Weight, depth and a stated wireless range are missing from the listing.
Who it's for
An office that needs scanning, color printing and badge authentication in one shared machine. Home users, or buyers who need exact dimensions up front, may find it more than they need.
Pros and cons
- Fast two-sided scanning
- Large document feeder
- Scan to cloud, email and SharePoint
- NFC badge authentication
- Dimensions and weight not listed
- Intended for shared offices
- Features shown as bullets, not a spec table
Performance notes
A two-sided scan pass captures both faces of a page at once, which is why the listed scanning rate is far above the print rate. Toner yields set how often cartridges change, and the listed high yield cartridges run longer between swaps. The touchscreen shows scan previews and stores shortcuts for repeat jobs.
