Printer Buying Guide

  • Inkjet printers are best for home or small business use: They offer excellent print quality for photos and documents and accept a variety of paper types and sizes.
  • Be sure you have the right cartridge: Enter your printer's model number into our Ink and Toner Finder to find compatible cartridges. Get started ›
  • Wireless and mobile printing capability: Connect this printer to your home or office network with built-in Ethernet or wireless LAN. Plus, print from your mobile device with Apple AirPrint, Google Cloud Print and Brother iPrint&Scan*.
  • Up to 6000 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch) resolution: High resolution for producing incredible quality and detail in documents and photos.
  • 4 individual print cartridges are economical: Only replace ink cartridges (black, cyan, magenta and yellow) when a color runs out.
  • Large-capacity input tray for high-volume copying: Reload less often with the 100-sheet tray. The 20-sheet automatic document feeder simplifies copying, scanning or printing multi-page documents.
  • 1.8" color LCD screen: Adjust settings with ease.
  • USB port for simple connectivity: High-speed USB 2.0 port offers a standard connection to your PC or Mac.
  • Built-in duplex printing: Print on both sides of the page without turning it over manually to minimize your printing costs and help the environment.
