Brother MFC-J1010DW

The Brother MFC-J1010DW is good for family use. It has multiple connectivity options, making it easily accessible to everyone in the household. It prints quickly, produces high-quality black and color documents, and its cost per print is relatively low due to the cheap cost of its ink cartridges. Its color accuracy is okay for photo printing, but it struggles with bright, saturated colors and darker shades like greens and yellows. It has a high-resolution scanner that's well-suited for digitizing photos, and you can quickly process multi-page documents thanks to its automatic document feeder.

The Brother MFC-J1010DW has everything your home office needs – except style. Get past its cloud-grey plastic and it’s a competent printer, scanner, copier and fax machine at a reasonable price; but it doesn’t do anything brilliantly.
