However, scanning to a file or over the Internet to our Dropbox account was much faster, and scans were high quality with accurate colors. It’s in a small business environment where you might see this as a hurdle. For home users who need to make the occasional copy, this isn’t an issue. Granted, the pages had fairly high coverage, but we gave up the test when only five pages had been ejected at the eight-minute mark. Copying 10 pages of the Excel spreadsheet was torturous. The vendors throw this in as a convenience, and the J885DW is no exception. Very few inkjets function well as a copier. Still, for a school or business report, the output is very satisfactory. When we switched to Hammermill Digital Color Copy paper, the output was under-saturated, but that is to be expected with an inkjet printer. With Brother’s Glossy Photo Paper, colors are vibrant and accurate the machine isn’t marketed as a photo printer, so this is a good thing. We are also happy with the MFP’s image quality, thanks in part to the use of three separate color ink tanks, versus a single tri-color tank. The J885DW balances price with useful features and good output. The MFP primes the inks for several minutes, and then you’re good to go.

During installation you can choose to install Nuance PaperPort 12SE (Windows) or Presto! PageManager (Mac) text-scanning-and-conversion software. If using the installation software, you’ll be prompted to hook up the USB cable (which we did for our tests) or connect via Wi-Fi, and install the ink cartridges.

If your machine lacks an optical drive, you can always download the drivers from Brother’s website or have the OS search for them.

#BROTHER PRINTER DOWNLOAD J885DW MANUAL#
A whopping 645-page manual is available for download via Brother’s website. There’s the MFP itself, a box of starter ink cartridges, a setup poster, a 71-page user’s guide, and a setup CD containing drivers and other software. What’s includedĪs with most of the MFPs and printers, the J885DW’s packaging isn’t overflowing with goodies.
If you know you make a lot of prints, however, you may want to consider getting high-yield three-pack, which will save you some money. There isn’t a big difference in yield between buying two LC201 cartridges and a single LC203 the advantage in buying high-yield cartridges is you don’t have to change them as often. The higher yield LC2013 cartridges deliver about 550 pages, and cost $24.49 each. Black cartridges usually have a different page yield and price, but the J885DW’s has the same yield and price as the color cartridges (cyan, magenta, and yellow). The LC201 standard-capacity cartridges deliver about 260 pages, and cost $12.49 each.
There are two different ink cartridge capacities available.
The one on the left hides the USB port (used for flash memory and PictBridge-compatible cameras) and SD card slot, while the one on the right side reveals the ink cartridges. The output support tray, for catching printed documents, has a capacity for 50 sheets.Īlso located on the front panel are two flip-down covers. A rear paper feed is available for heavy media and specialty paper, such as card stock this feeder is used solely in single-sheet mode. There is a separate feed on the top of this drawer, for up to 20 sheets of small-format photo paper (up to 4 x 6 inches).
One is the main paper drawer at the bottom, which holds a paltry 100 sheets of paper (up to legal size). We were pleased with both performance and print quality.
