Brother UK has upgraded its X-series range of A3 inkjet printers with longer machine life and improved performance.
The upgraded X-series inkjet range is suited to environments with higher print volume requirements and feature faster print speeds of 30 images per minute (ipm) compared to the 22ipm delivered by the previous range.
The new machines have a longer lifespan and the monthly duty cycle on the new models has been boosted from 2,000 pages to 3,500 pages.
Other feature improvements include better technology controlling flushing ink to create sharper printouts for users and full pigment-based inks delivering denser blacks and more vivid colours for documents.
Sara Diggle, SMB Business Unit Manager at Brother UK, said: “Our flagship X-Series inkjet range now boasts an even more competitive spec sheet, with significant upgrades that help users to print more efficiently, while further meeting the goals of IT professionals.
“Sustainability matters to every business, with half of IT decision makers telling us in recent research* that it’s very important to them. The X-Series inkjet range delivers on their ambitions to specify more energy efficient technology, and to contribute to circular economies when used as part of a managed print service.
“Upgrading our X-Series inkjet range is a key part of a wider strategy to refresh our range of inkjet models – enhancing how our advanced technology can support teams fulfilling the most demanding tasks securely and efficiently across any setting.
“Enhancing the range also strengthens our position as a leading vendor of choice when businesses require both laser and inkjet models to meet their printing requirements, following HP’s PageWide withdrawal.”
The X-Series comprises of the MFC-J5955DW, MFC-J6955DW and MFC-J6957DW. Each model features a 9.3cm LCD for user operation, with wired, wireless, USB and NFC connectivity.
Each model comes with up to three 250-page input trays and a 100-page multi-purpose media tray. A 20-sheet automatic document feeder supports faster scanning.
The X-Series upgrade follows the launch of Brother’s Mini Business and Mini Regular A4 inkjet ranges last year.
