About the Product
Despite its A4 footprint, the MFC-J5330DW has the added bonus of A3 printing on top of the A4 scan, copy and fax capabilities. Ideal for the occasional A3 print requests for internal posters, plans, or chart.
The MFC-J5730DW Brother printer offers the best of both worlds: an A4 footprint that won’t clutter up desks, with the added bonus of A3 printing on top of A4 scanner, copier and fax capabilities. Plus the additional 100 sheet paper saves time on refills.
