Brother MFC-9560CDW Compact Color Laser Printer

Compact color laser printers like the Brother MFC-9560CDW are mostly preferred by many for reasons such as wireless printing, duplexing and good speed. Added the fact that it saves much space in the office for its small build, it can simply share a space on desk. If you particularly want a laser unit that supports WiFi connectivity, this model is probably a good catch.

One of its main weaknesses is poor color print quality, which is basically considerable when talking about a laser type printer. But there are also these great features that you need to know about the MFC-9560CDW. A sweep-back front panel accommodates a nice tilt which lets users navigate the unit in a pretty much comfortable manner. The LCD isn’t a colored one but nonetheless useful, keypads, directional controller, function specific buttons are some of what you’ll see from the panel.

Its duplexer is a 35-page automatic document feeder which lets user do print, copy or fax multipage or two-sided documents. Faxing is a functionality that can work either with or without a computer. The unit’s maximum media capacity is split between a 250-sheet main input tray and its supplementary 50-sheet multipurpose tray. Should you need additional space to load more papers, there’s an optional 500-sheet tray at about $250 or less.

It is acceptable that with a color laser printer, photo quality is somehow expected at below average. However, with the Brother MFC-9560CDW it is compensated by the unit’s low cost-per-page and inexpensive supplies such as Brother TN315 color toner cartridges which is its very essential need. Text quality is perfectly fine, and that is something you shouldn’t be surprised of for a laser printer.

The main feature that perhaps most users would have thought of to consider this printer is its wireless printing capability. Though it lacks a memory card slot, still users can print certain files directly from their USB drives without the need for a computer. It would be better if they equipped it with a colored screen instead of a monochrome, to allow flexible printing options.

To those who are thinking if it’s similar with the MFC-9650CDN well actually they only differ in one single feature, and that is wireless connectivity. Ethernet and USB interfaces are also present but of course who would have used it if there’s WiFi to make things easier.

If color printing is not an essential requirement to your business, this Brother MFC-9560CDW color laser printer should be part of your shortlist.
