Our verdict

A high capacity color laser for workgroups that print large volumes on a wired network and want high yield toner. Wireless needs an extra module, and it is print only.

Overview

Sharing one color printer across a busy workgroup is what this Brother enterprise laser is built for, with wired Gigabit networking and automatic two sided printing. An NFC reader lets staff release jobs with a badge tap.

High yield toner in the box and super high yield refills keep per page supply runs infrequent. Output can grow with stapler or sorter options. Wi-Fi is not built in, and it does not scan or copy.

Who it's for

Offices with steady color print demand and an IT team managing devices get a machine that scales with finishing options. Home users and teams without wired networking will find it oversized and underconnected.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • High yield toner included
  • Super high yield refills available
  • Badge release via NFC
  • Expandable output and finishing
Cons
  • Wi-Fi needs a separate module
  • Print only, no scan or copy
  • No feature bullets in the listing

Performance notes

Engine speed and large paper capacity let long jobs run unattended. Toner yield governs how often a workgroup stops for supplies, and Eco Mode and Toner Save Mode trade a little output density for lower consumption.
