Brother MFC-4800 Toner Cartridges

The Brother MFC-4800 combines a laser printer, copier, fax machine, and scanner into a very compact package, but a few compromises were made. Its maximum speed is only 10 pages per minute, and it lacks a flatbed scanner and network sharing options.

Buyers used to small, dedicated fax machines will find the design of the MFC-4800 familiar. It uses a vertical feeder for scanning that can hold up to 20 pages, and a vertical input paper tray that can hold up to 200 sheets. One of the limitations of this design is the lack of a flatbed scanning surface, so only loose sheets can be scanned, copied, or faxed. The small screen provides only basic information, like status updates, error messages, and alerts for low Brother MFC-4800 printer toner levels.

In addition to the four major functions, the MFC-4800 can also handle PC Faxing, which lets users send a receive faxes to and from their computer. This tends to be a very convenient feature, especially since the traditional fax function is limited to only 14.4 Kbps speeds, which results in slow operation.

The copy and scan functions are simple, but useful. The unit includes PaperPort software for managing scanned documents, and the TextBridge OCR software can turn paper documents into editable text, which is perfect for making searchable archives.

When it comes to replacement toners, the cost of supplies is quite affordable for such a compact machine. Brother MFC-4800 toner cartridges have a yield of up to 2,200 pages, so they won't have to be replaced too frequently. With their affordable price, this gives Brother MFC-4800 toner cartridges a low cost per page.

Very small offices or home users may find the MFC-4800 to be a perfect combination of a compact design and affordable operation, thanks to inexpensive Brother MFC-4800 toner. Busier users will probably find its slow speeds and small capacities too much of a limitation.
