Brother MFC-9320CW

 

The Brother MFC-9320CW is easily the fastest color multi-function printer we've seen in its price class.

Fast. Prints, scans, and faxes over a network. Standalone copier and fax. Reasonably high- quality color graphics. Ethernet and WiFi.

Limited paper capacity. No duplexer (for printing on both sides of a page).

Brother MFC-9320CW

 

Editor's note: PCWorld has updated the speed results for this product. After identifying a conflict with a test file that affected this and a few other, unrelated printers, PCWorld Labs revised the file and retested the product. Its speed results for...

Wi-Fi connectivity ; Low purchase price

Very slow printing plain text ; Color toner is a little expensive

Wi-Fi is included in the bargain pricing, but the trade-offs are sedate print speeds and mediocre graphics quality.

Brother MFC-9320cw review

 

The 35-page automatic document feeder resides on top of the scanner lid for large document scanning, copying or faxing. Send documents as large as 8.5 x 14 inches or as small as 6 x 6 inches through the ADF

WIFI ; Compact design ; USB direct print ; Hard copy of user guide

Manual duplexing ; Weird toner error

My biggest concern is about the low toner error message; I’ve never had anything like that happen when reviewing a laser or LED printer. It didn't seem to be a problem after I followed the instructions but it definitely gave me pause

Brother MFC-9320cw Review and Ratings

 

This all-in-one LED printer delivers fast output, a high duty cycle, and excellent text-print quality for small businesses. Note, though, its per-page costs are pricier than average.

Prints fast ; Excellent text-print quality ; Wi-Fi, PictBridge connectivity

Higher-than-average print costs ; Small, text-only LCD ; Limited paper-tray capacity

Brother MFC-9320CW colour LED multifunction

 

This MFC-9320CW is a capable colour multifunction printer that uses LED technology

Small footprint, easy Wi-Fi setup, direct print from USB flash drives

No automatic duplexing, control panel can be frustrating, some colour print quality issues

LED printing technology isn't revolutionary, but, as the MFC-9320CW shows, it offers advantages in both initial cost and size. This reasonably priced multifunction will print good quality documents quickly, though it doesn't have the simplest control...

Brother MFC-9320CW review

 

Like the Brother HL-3070CW printer, the Brother MFC-9320CW provides decent quality for a very reasonable price, though the absence of an automatic duplexer is disappointing.

Although the Brother MFC-9320CW's LED technology isn't a selling point in and of itself, the lower initial price point and good text quality make this colour multifunction a good option.

Brother A4 Colour MFC-9320CW

 

With things like TV's continually getting lighter why is it that laser printers seem to be getting heavier? This is not that large but heavy to the point that even strong couriers struggle to carry it by themselves, or course the box does say two to...

I liked the unit and it responds well even in a cupboard of course you still have to go and collect the output (this can be set securely for a multiple user environment) by only moan is the weight still you don’t normally move it about

Brother MFC-9320CW review: LED printer

 

Brother makes a rare foray into LED technology to produce the MFC-9320CW. Does it give it the edge in a competitive colour printer market? We review the Brother MFC-9320CW to find out.

This is a well-designed, small office or workgroup multifunction machine with flexible fax and the convenience of a wireless network connection. Its LED print engine produces high quality output, particularly for photographic content, and both speed...
