A multifunctional is really an all-in-one device; it is both a scanner and a printer, and often even has a fax function. So effectively it's a copier, but one that has the scanning and printing functions available separately. All this is a great advantage when you have limited office space. Moreover, you will be able to work faster and more efficiently by using the device's convenient special functions.

Product Code: MFC6490CWZU1 Brother's colour inkjet multifunction printer (MFP), the Brother MFC-6490CW, adds wide-format printing capability to an already long list of functions. Unfortunately, extremely slow performance is the tradeoff. For £299 (i...
Bottom line The Brother MFC-6490CW multifunction printer's wide-format capability is nice, but not its slow performance and variable print quality. Melissa Riofrio and Susan Silvius Lowest online price: £228.85...

Say the word ‘A3’ and most immediately think too big or too heavy or probably both. Well it will not fit where I review A4 units – no surprise there – but it sits in the doorway to my office quite happily and it just needs an extension on the USB lead...

A bigger Brother. Affordable oversize printing and scanning. There are plenty of all-in-one printer/scanners around, but what almost all have in common is their A4 size. Brothers MFC-6490CW is the first that can print on A3+ paper and scan documents...

As a first attempt at an A3 all-in-one office inkjet, the MFC-6490CW makes a lot of the right moves. It has twin paper trays, a good scanner and some useful extras, such as the widescreen LCD display. A couple of annoying shortcomings, particularly th...

The MFC-6490CW is an A3 alternative to A4 multifunction devices (MFDs). According to Brother, it’s the world’s first compact A3 wireless inkjet MFD.With its 540x488mm footprint, calling it compact is stretching it a bit, but Brother has done a good job...

An A3 printer is a useful thing. It allows you to print small poster-sized images, multi-page pamphlets on one sheet and can even be used in pre-production environments to output full-sized double-page proofs. But most people don't own or run them beca...

We suspect this is the first of several A3 all-in-one printers to be released by the major manufacturers over the next year. While its well-specified and does its job reasonably well, there are some design flaws in the menu system and it would benefit...

If A4 paper just isnt big enough, then Brothers MFC-6490CW might just be your next multifunction printer. It isnt the best or fastest A3 printer available, but the combination of features and its low running cost make it a tempting buy. Though it has the basic shape and look of a standard Brother inkjet multifunction printer, the MFC-6490CW is a different beast altogether. Its wide and deep enough to cope with A3 media, and high enough to fit 400 sheets at a time. It isnt as big as the Eps...
Good A3 printing and scanning, quick and detailed scans, fast first-page-out times, comprehensive connectivity, low running cost...
Bad Slow printing, photo quality isn’t great, no automatic duplex or CD/DVD printing...
Bottom line There are better standalone A3 printers available, but Brother’s A3 inkjet multifunction has its merits. A low running cost caps off a decent printer...

Most A3 all-in-ones we see are laser based, have prices in the thousands and have dimensions a small building would be proud of. Brother’s MFC-6490CW is different: it’s an inkjet A3 all-in-one – the only one we’ve ever seen – and as a result it’s much...
Bottom line Very compact and incredibly cheap for an A3 all-in-one, but speed and print quality are only average...
