Key Features Explained

  1. Fast Print Speeds (23 ipm Black / 18 ipm Color):

    • Offers strong performance for a busy office, significantly faster than entry-level ink tank models.

  2. Fax Functionality:

    • The “MFC” (Multi-Function Center) designation confirms it includes a fax modem, a key differentiator from the “DCP” series.

  3. Large Paper Capacity & Front-Access Tray:

    • The 250-sheet input tray and 100-sheet output tray reduce the frequency of paper handling interruptions.

  4. Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) & Duplex Scanning:

    • The 35-sheet ADF is essential for scanning, copying, or faxing multi-page documents efficiently. It supports automatic double-sided scanning.

  5. Advanced Connectivity:

    • Gigabit Ethernet: Provides a fast, stable wired network connection for office sharing.

    • Dual-Band Wi-Fi ac: Supports modern wireless networks.

  6. Color Touchscreen Display:

    • The 2.7-inch color LCD improves usability for configuration and status checks compared to basic monochrome displays.

Who is this printer for?

  • Small to Medium-Sized Businesses: Ideal for offices that need a reliable all-in-one with fax capability and good speed.

  • Workgroups: The Ethernet connectivity and large paper capacity make it suitable for shared use.

  • Users who need a balance of performance, features, and cost-effectiveness for general office tasks.

Potential Considerations / Limitations

  • Ink Type: Uses dye-based inks, which are not optimal for waterproof or archival documents.

  • Comparison to T930DW: The MFC-T920DW is generally a step below the flagship MFC-T930DW in terms of print speed (23 vs 26 ipm) and ADF capacity (35 vs 50 sheets).
