Brother MFC-J6930DW review

Brother MFC-J6930DW

 

This business-centric color inkjet all-in-one printer is relatively fast, with good print quality, competitively low running costs, and flexible paper handling.

Prints, scans, copies, and faxes tabloid-size pages. Competitively fast. Low running costs. Single-pass auto-duplexing ADF. Three paper input sources. Good print quality overall.

Love this printer, worth ordering online!

 

My old Brother broke and I had to have a printer right away. Unable to locate my models replacement in town. Needless to say 2 months later I ordered my Replacement Brother printer online. Brother printers are way better on the ink, easy to use (even...

Product Change

 

I watched the video exploring the different features, simple to install, price, highly impressed and just wanted to try another manufacture printer. I have used a Brother's fax machine in the past and the product was efficient.
