The Brother MFC 5490CN is an all-in-one machine suitable for SOHO (small office home office) users. It’s the perfect solution for your everyday business applications – reports, spreadsheets, presentations, and more. This versatile printer has USB and Ethernet connections as standard. Simply plug it into your wired or wireless router and share the device through your network to print, scan, PC fax and access your digital camera media cards or USB flash memory drive. For your convenience, this Brother features a full-width control panel that includes a backlit, 2-line by 16-character LCD display, with four illuminated mode buttons in front (for fax, scan, copy and photo capture options). Other easy-to-use buttons are found both at the right and left sides of the control panel. The machine also comes with a 150-sheet input capacity (from 3.5" x 5" to 8.5" x 14") and a 50-sheet auto document feeder, for unattended copy, scan or fax. Note that the high-speed super G3 33.6 Kbps fax modem enables you to send/receive B/W or color faxes at up to three seconds per page, with or without a PC. The MFC 5490CN provides professional printing quality, with droplet sizes as small as 1.5 picolitres and maximum resolutions up to 6000 x 1200 dpi. The standalone (PC-free) copier can make up to 23 copies per minute black and 20 cpm color. Brother provides drivers for Windows and OS X on the accompanying CD, while a Linux driver is available for download.
The Brother MFC 5490CN uses individual ink cartridges for each color (cyan, magenta, yellow, black), so that only the color that runs out needs to be replaced. If you want to save on your ink costs, purchase your replacement cartridges from ClickInks. You can rely on the ClickInks Brand to give you excellent print results at reduced cost.
