Data is based on Brother lab test results and may vary from actual print quality due to usage environment and settings. Best print resolution is 2,400 dpi (600 x 2400) quality (measured with print quality set to best mode).

The print speed may be slower when the machine is connected by wireless LAN.

These print speeds are for 1-sided printing and measured in accordance with the ISO/IEC 24734 standard.

Printing from Ready mode and standard tray.
