Manual of product MFC-9140CDN
Editorial note
The Brother MFC-9140CDN is an all-in-one printer that stands out for its solid performance and versatility. With a printing speed of 22 pages per minute, this device meets the demands of professional users while ensuring exceptional print quality thanks to its resolution of 600 x 2400 DPI. It also offers practical features like duplex printing, although this is manual, which may be inconvenient for some. However, some drawbacks must be taken into account. The weight of 23.2 kg makes moving the printer difficult, especially in tight workspaces. Additionally, the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits wireless printing options, which could frustrate modern users. The time to first page output, which is 16 seconds for black and 22 seconds for color, may also seem long in demanding work environments. Finally, the output capacity of 100 sheets may require frequent interventions for high-volume printing offices. In terms of ratings, the product received varied scores: a satisfactory user experience with a score of 75, solid performance rated at 80, and a good value for money of 85, thanks to its ability to combine multiple features. Although the design is functional, it received a score of 70 due to its weight, and connectivity was also deemed insufficient, with a score of 75. Support and documentation are rated at 70 and 80 respectively, indicating a good foundation, but there is room for improvement for more comprehensive technical assistance. Overall, the Brother MFC-9140CDN is a wise choice for professionals looking for a versatile printer, but it is important to consider its limitations in terms of mobility and connectivity.Score details
