Brother MFC-820CW Printer Review

Expert review of the Brother MFC-820CW printer

Our Verdict:

As a multifunction printing device with a variety of options and functions, the Brother MFC-820CW is a good option to consider. The benefits of choosing this item include a comprehensive memory function and a variety of communications tools, such as group dialling. However, the downsides are also numerous and include a lower output tray capacity than usual. There’s nothing particularly quick about the MFC-820CW, but if your printing needs are minimal, this may not be an issue.

Design

This device has a great size. Measuring 373 x 347 x 165 mm and weighing 6kg, it is portable enough to be moved around while also fitting well into most operating spaces. It comes with an automatic document feeder capacity of 10 pages and a paper input tray capacity of 100 pages. The colour fax function has an excellent modem speed of 14,400 bps, and it comes with other handy functions, such as a memory with the capacity to store up to 480 pages. The scanner has an optical resolution of 600 x 2,400 dpi, and it comes with TWAIN-compliant software for both Windows and Mac.

Advantages

There’s a lot going in favour of this device. For example, the fax function allows for group dialling of up to 6 groups, while the copier’s maximum monochrome printing resolution of 1,200 x 1,200 dpi means that prints will be of a high quality every time. The copier also offers reduction and enlargement functions. The size change ranges from 25% to 400% in increments of 1%.

Disadvantages

However, there are some disadvantages with the Brother MFC-820CW. It has a lower than standard output paper tray capacity of 25 pages, which is half of what many similar printers enjoy. Also, the device only has 16MB of RAM.
