The MFC-9325CW is a fair SOHO printer, but it's not a great one while it would be worthwhile upgrading your pricing over the MFC 9125CN, the lack of quality colour output puts a definite pall on the whole experience.Enabling JavaScript and cookies in your web browser It's not sold as a photo printer, and with good reason - when we ran a few photos through the printer, the results were less than impressive, with marked banding in darker areas.

If you're only using small areas of colour, it produces passable quality, but anything complex or large tended to have obvious bands of colour within it. While text print quality was acceptable, colour reproduction was, like the MFC-9125CN, a bit of a sore point. Which connection, and why? Was the scanner plate faulty? Where did it think we wanted to send the finished scan? As it turns out, that's an error message associated with its connection (USB/Ethernet/Wi-Fi), but we couldn't get it to move off the error, even thought the network connection was fine. Likewise, the first time we tried to scan a document from the front panel, it beeped alarmingly and told us to 'check connection' on the front panel. We hit a couple of paper jams during testing - which is fine, no printer is perfect - but it picked them up as the tray being out of paper. Having only a two line display panel doesn't leave a lot of room for error messages, and the MFC-9125CN often annoyed us with both its detection of errors and the way it chose to communicate them. That's still below the claimed rate, but a little better than the cheaper MFC-9125CN, which only managed an average of ten pages in the same time frame. With the printer suitably fired up, though, things improved markedly, with an initial page taking 17 seconds, for a total of 12 pages per minute. Our first run of tests of the MFC-9325CW weren't that inspiring from a cold start, the printer struggled to get a single page out, taking a leisurely 42 seconds and then increasing in speed for an average of seven pages per minute.

It's rated by Brother at the same speed as the MFC-9125CN - up to 19 pages per minute in monochrome or colour. Wi-Fi connectivity is one reason why you might spend the additional funds on the MFC-9325CW the other is the presence of a front mounted USB socket for flash drives. It's worth pointing out (if only for the pedantic) that the MFC-9325CW isn't a laser printer at all it uses an array of LEDs, but the quality difference in a SOHO printer for monochrome, at least, usually isn't that noticeable.
