Conclusion of the comparison test

Very pleasing is the fact that switching off all devices in the test field means the power off. Equally saving resources are all immediate breaks on the devices. Pressing the respective button on the unit will end the print without terminating the current page or even the current print job before the abort.


Conclusion of the comparison test


This saves expensive ink and print media. The Lexak 2170 is a very economical printer for office use. The Lexmark 2170 consumes a lot of money on high-quality photo paper. Here, a photoprint on A4 photo paper costs about 2.60 euro, a 10 x 15 cm photo is about 44 cent (Lexmark) and 41 cent (Brother)


Test winner: Brother DCP-J925DW


Further operating costs can be saved with the duplex units of the Brother, Lexmark and HP devices. When this function is activated, pages are automatically printed on the front and rear, which reduces the paper costs for multi-page documents by half.


Kodak and Canon only provide manual double-sided printing on your equipment in the test area, and the pages must be rotated manually after the first pass. A brief "Rotary instruction" appears on the screen.


Brother was with the DCP-J925DW test winner due to the good technical equipment of the model and the good to very good quality and speed results. The Brother could also score points with the low costs.


All other devices were at the same level with the test winner in print quality. The point distribution differs mainly in the categories of equipment, output speed and subsequent costs.


The up-to-date model from Brother went straight to the test in time - and despite the lack of faxing the test went. The model impressed with top ratings, in terms of print quality, printing speed, equipment, and the following costs, in all respects.


Except for the low paper stock and the often denied last photo paper template, Brother is a very good litter, which meets especially the extensive requirements at home and in small offices without fax needs. The all-in-one is available from the end of August.
