What should I consider when choosing an all-in-one monochrome printer?

Consider the printing capacities

Monochrome all-in-one printers exclusively print in black and white, making them ideal for text documents, reports, and grayscale images. Printing capabilities vary among models, primarily in print speed (measured in pages per minute, or PPM) and print resolution (measured in dots per inch, or DPI). Higher speeds benefit heavy printing needs, while higher resolution ensures sharper text and images. Consider duplex printing and paper size compatibility; duplex printing allows printing on both sides of the paper, reducing costs. Ensure the printer supports your common paper sizes like letter, legal, or A4, and possibly larger or smaller formats.

Evaluate the copying capabilities

When selecting a monochrome all-in-one printer, evaluate the device's copying capabilities. Look for features such as multi-copy printing, which allows you to create several copies of a document with a single command. The sorting function arranges the copies in order. Copy speed (measured in copies per minute, CPM) and copy resolution are important for efficiency. Faster speeds are beneficial for high-volume jobs, and higher resolution ensures clear copies. Note that monochrome printers produce black and white copies, regardless of the original document's colour. For colour-printed copies, an all-in-one colour laser printer would be the best choice.

Assess the scanning options

Just as with printing and copying, you can look at scanning speed and resolution. Also, look for features such as blank page removal and duplex scanning for efficient and faster 2-sided scanning. The size of the document glass is generally Letter format, but you may need it to accommodate various document sizes. While monochrome printers mainly scan in black and white, many models offer the ability to scan coloured documents. Finally, consider "scan-to" functions for converting digital files and sharing, including Cloud connectivity, scan-to-email, various file formats, and many other options.

Evaluate the faxing capabilities

Faxing remains an important feature for some businesses. Look for a fax modem speed that ensures fast transmission and reception. Fax forwarding allows you to send incoming faxes to an email or other designated location. A fax page memory is essential for storing incoming faxes when the printer is busy or offline. Many other fax features are available on various Brother all-in-one printer models.

While core functionalities of printing, copying, scanning, and faxing are vital, other factors should influence your decision. Consider connectivity options (Wi-Fi, Ethernet, USB), warranty coverage for peace of mind, and factors like paper capacity, input/output trays, and noise levels for a better user experience.

Brother offers a wide range of monochrome all-in-one laser printers, each with various versions of these capabilities. Whether you prioritize high-speed printing, efficient copying features, advanced scanning options, or reliable faxing capabilities, Brother likely has a model tailored to meet your specific needs.

  • Are all-in-one monochrome printers more cost-effective than all-in-one colour printers?

    Yes, all-in-one monochrome printers typically have lower initial costs and cheaper ongoing expenses due to the absence of colour toner cartridges and the simpler mechanism, leading to lower maintenance costs.

  • Can all-in-one monochrome printers scan coloured documents?

    Yes, most Brother all-in-one monochrome printers can scan coloured documents. These printers are equipped with colour scanners, which allow them to capture and create digital files in colour. However, while they can scan documents in colour, any printed copies will be produced in black and white. Make sure to check the scanning options available for the printers you would like to purchase.
