Brother International, a leader in home and business IT peripherals that focuses on the 'customer-first' approach, has launched its new range of business-minded inkjet Multi-Function Centres, with A3 print capability, aimed at home offices (SOHO) and small businesses.

Available in two models, MFC-J2320 and MFC-J2720, the series offers multiple functionalities tailored for business usage while keeping prices affordable. It gives businesses both outstanding value and the benefit of work productivity.

Developed with business users' needs at the heart of the design, the new inkjet Multi-Function Centre range packs myriad essential business features in a small footprint. Its A3 print capability allows users to print detailed spreadsheets, precise blueprints and stunning photographs in impactful A3 format.

In addition, the range boasts fast print speeds of up to 22 monochrome and 20 colour pages per minute (based on ISO/IEC 24734). It also enables users to print images directly from digital camera, media cards#, and USB memory stick without the need to turn on the PC, and it supports mobile and cloud printing. These features boost work productivity, and give users more time to get on with more important tasks at work.

Moreover, flagship model MFC-J2720 showcases time-saving functions such as automatic two-sided scanning/faxing# up to A4, and up to 50-sheet# automatic document feeder. It also introduces a multi-purpose tray# that handles up to 80 sheets in A4, or 5 sheets in A3. Together with its dual trays# that offer 500-sheet capacity for paper up to A3 size, switching between printing envelopes, labels and paper of varied thickness and size is a breeze. This superior paper handling capability cuts down the hassle of frequent paper reloading, and provides greater versatility to users.

With high print-volume business users in mind, the new range is also designed for bigger savings. Both models offer automatic two-sided printing capability to help users save on paper costs. The range also offers the option of affordable 2 400^ page-yield black and 1 200 page yield colour cartridges, so users enjoy low running cost. Its individual ink cartridge system, which requires replacement of only the colour needed, and its "Ink Save Mode" help avoid unnecessary ink wastage.

Dale de Villiers, marketing manager at Brother South Africa, said: "This new range delivers higher productivity to businesses on so many levels. With class leading specifications, paper handling and the lowest cost per page in its class, we are positive that this new series will take the business inkjet market segment by storm.

"Besides a good range of business features, we offer users greater versatility when printing in different paper sizes, as well as Web connectivity and additional features like Brother's Apps. Its sleek design also means the new inkjet Multi-Function Centre range is compact enough to fit on most office desks."

Last but not least, the new range complies with Energy Star standard, and features "Low Energy Standby" with approximately 0.04 watt power consumption in off mode (when power is off but the machine remains plugged in) for greater energy and cost saving.
