Brother MFC-1270 Toner Cartridges

Brother MFC-1270 Printer Review

The Brother MFC-1270 is a laser printer and fax machine with copy functions, designed for the home or small business user. The unit features advanced fax features such as a 20-page memory and full keypad on the control panel. Faxes can also be scanned and prepared while a fax is being received, helping to save time. Its affordable price makes it a good fit for small budgets and low cost printer toner makes it inexpensive to maintain.

The compact design of the machine is well-suited for small office spaces, but it still offers a roomy 200-sheet paper capacity, which should be more than enough to keep home and small office users printing and faxing without having to reload paper too often. The automatic document feeder on the top of the unit can hold up to 20 pages, making it quick and easy to fax multiple pages at once. The LCD display on the control panel provides easy to read information.

Brother MFC-1270 toner cartridges have a standard yield of 3,000 pages. A high-yield version of the Brother MFC-1270 toner cartridges is also available, with a capacity of 6,000 pages. Utilizing compatible Brother MFC-1270 toner instead of OEM versions will cut costs even lower, and using the draft mode will keep users from replacing toners as often, with only a slight reduction in print quality.

Compared to similar Brother models, such as the 8350, the MFC-1270 has a lower upfront price and a similar feature set, but its paper capacity is smaller, making it a better choice for low-volume users. It does include fax features not available in other models, however.

Home and small office users will find the MFC-1270 to be an affordable alternative to buying a separate laser printer and fax machine. Its small design will fit easily in small spaces and the low cost of Brother MFC-1270 toner keeps costs down in the long run.
