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.

At a glance, the Brother MFC-J985DW ($199.99) seems like a typical modestly priced inkjet multifunction printer (MFP), but inside it has secret weapon. Its ink cartridges have enough capacity to print an unusually large number of pages, and even better, i...

Bottom line We've tested our fair share of all-in-one print stations, and we're happy to say that this one is a solid buy. When you factor in the cost of ink cartridges, though, the Brother Brother MFC-J985DW XL is actually quite a bit cheaper than it's competitors...
