Product Description
This Brother color MFC is a reasonable choice if you are looking for a wired or wireless networked high speed laser-like color printer, copier, scanner and fax all-in-one, but do not need duplex (two-sided) printing/faxing/scanning. Personally, I duplex almost everything to save paper, and so would prefer the modelwhich is a small price increase over this one. (You can manually duplex with the MFC-9320CW by printing odd numbered pages, taking the output stack and placing it in the paper tray, and the printing the even number pages. But, just one paper jam would ruin that process.)
I have a variety of complaints about the machine and the software which prevent me from giving it more than three stars.
Note that laser-class printers are no substitute for photo printers. Do not expect photo quality color (or even a very wide color gamut) or the ability to print on photo paper. That is not what this class of device is for. If photo quality is your expectation, look to inkjet photo printers. (The scanner on this device is photo-quality, though.)
My rating is based on the reasonable expectations of what a color laser is supposed to do: spot color, color graphics, mixed text and graphics documents, reasonable color copies.... and all water resistant, due to the fused toner.
Brother MFC-9320CW High Quality Digital Color All-in-One Printer with Wireless Networking
Both wired and wireless networking worked well, although the instructions for the wireless setup are written by and for a geek, so if you're not a techie, you'll probably need a tech friend to help if your wireless network is secure, with hidden SID and password. It is really annoying that the device prints two sheets of paper when you change the network settings, one with the wired and one with the wireless settings. That should be a user option.
