Key Features Explained

  1. Fastest Print Speeds (26 ipm Black / 22 ipm Color):

    • This is the standout performance feature, making it significantly faster than models like the DCP-T830DW (23 ipm). It approaches the speed of many office laser printers, ideal for high-volume environments.

  2. Large 50-Sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF):

    • The high-capacity ADF is built for efficiently scanning, copying, or faxing large multi-page documents without constant reloading. This is a key productivity booster.

  3. Fax Functionality:

    • The “MFC” (Multi-Function Center) designation means it includes a fax modem, a feature absent in the “DCP” series. This is essential for businesses that still rely on fax communication.

  4. High Monthly Duty Cycle (6,000 pages):

    • This printer is engineered to handle a heavy workload, making it suitable for a busy office with multiple users.

  5. Advanced Connectivity:

    • Gigabit Ethernet: Ensures a fast, reliable wired network connection for an entire office.

    • Dual-Band Wi-Fi ac: Provides a robust wireless connection.

  6. Refillable Ink Tank System:

    • Maintains the core advantage of extremely low printing costs, which is a major cost-saving benefit for high-volume color printing.

Who is this printer for?

  • Small to Medium-Sized Businesses: Perfect for offices that require a central, shared device capable of handling high volumes of printing, scanning, copying, and faxing.

  • Workgroups with Demanding Needs: The speed, large ADF, and high duty cycle support collaborative environments.

  • Businesses that need reliable fax capability integrated into their main printer.

  • Users who have outgrown the speed and capacity of smaller models like the DCP-T720DW or T830DW.

Potential Considerations / Limitations

  • Ink Type: Uses dye-based inks. While vibrant, they are not waterproof or archival. For document longevity, pigment-based laser printers might be preferred.

  • Size: It has a substantial footprint and is heavier than other models.

  • Cost: It is a premium model with a higher initial investment, justified by its performance and features.
