Key Advantages
The Brother MFC-495CW boasts multifunction capabilities reducing the need for separate devices, saving both space and cost. Its wireless connectivity offers convenient placement anywhere within network range eliminating cable clutter. The digital LED print technology ensures consistent and high-quality print output. With a print speed of up to 20 ppm, it supports increased productivity for small office tasks. The inclusion of a 20-sheet automatic document feeder streamlines multi-page copying and faxing operations. Furthermore, energy-efficient features contribute to lower power consumption and operational costs.
Limitations
While versatile, the Brother MFC-495CW does not support duplex (double-sided) printing natively, requiring manual page flipping for double-sided documents. Its color print speed is slightly slower compared to some competitive models in the same category. The 150-sheet input tray capacity may be limiting for high-volume print environments. The scanning resolution is suitable for everyday use but lacks advanced features found in higher-end devices. The device's display screen is limited to monochrome and basic navigation, which might hinder user experience. Lastly, toner cartridges can be more costly over time compared to some alternative printer technologies.
