Review Of The MFC-295CN Printer

Like a lot of people that own a computer in some shape or form, I need to print. It may be a coupon that I have to use within a certain amount of time, or perhaps I have to write a paper for school. Whatever my need may be, I have to have a functional printer to get things done. Recently, my old printer decided to expire; it would not print or do much of anything, and the time came to replace it. What did I go with? The Brother MFC-295CN inkjet printer. I have written a review that I hope will help others come to a decision.

1. Print Quality

If you are looking to print images with this printer, I should warn you that the quality is very poor. I tried to print out some nice images from a vacation that I recently took with my family; while the images looked OK on the computer screen, when I printed them out they did not look nearly as good. In fact, they appeared rather cheap. The colors were strange and saturated, and I had trouble making a few things out. If you want to print out images to give as gifts or place in an album, this is not a good printer for that.

2. The Papers and Ink

I do not like to pay a lot of money for my printer ink. I am unable to tell the difference between two different brands of ink, so to pay more than what is necessary frustrates me. When it comes to this Brother printer, I have found that Brother LC-61 ink is very affordable, depending on where you purchase it. Brother LC-61 ink cartridge works well with my budget, and when it comes to spending money on ink cartridges, my budget does not suffer. Whether you want to call them ink cartridges or printer ink, I think they should be cheap.

3. Overall Satisfaction

I mentioned that I am happy with the price of Brother LC-61 ink, as I do not like paying a lot for my ink cartridges. However, no matter what printer ink I choose to use, it does not seem to make much of a difference when it comes to printing quality. It works fine when it comes to general text printing, and it should be sufficient for small and unimportant printing jobs. However, when it comes to high end printing, I would go with something else. Brother LC-61 ink may be cheap, but affordable ink cartridges and printer ink does not make it worth it in the end.
