  • WiFi / 4in1, Good cost per page with XL cartridges: 8 pence, Standby settings are modifiable, iPrint app for printing and scanning with a smartphone
  • Image quality could be better, No doublesided printing, Not very userfriendly, Paper frequently gets stuck, Tray not very practical
  • The Brother MFC-J430W is an all-in-one, compact printer/scanner that's inexpensive and saves money on ink. But the image quality and user-friendliness failed to impress us. ...

  • Compact, affordable printer with scanner, copier and fax features
  • Modest print speeds in high quality mode; colour printing price could be more competitive
  • Print costs aren't quite as competitive as some of its rivals, though, at 2.5p for mono and 7.9p for colour prints. That confirms the impression that the MFC-J430W is primarily aimed at home workers who need versatility rather than high performance from t...

  • If your scanning and printing needs are minimal, but you want jobs to be done in a hurry, the Brother MFC-J430w is a cheap and efficient option. The output is serviceable, the ink is affordable, and - aside from the lack of automatic duplexing - the MF...

  • Fast print speeds, Onboard WiFi, Automatic document feeder
  • Feathering on bolded text, Colours in graphics and photos are a little washed out
  • The Brother MFC-J430W delivers printed pages at a speedy pace and is easy to set up and use. However, its print quality just isn't as good as what you'll get from rival models at a similar price....

  • Abstract:  This is a multi function unit (it has fax) and it can connect either by USB or Wi-Fi. In fact I used both with equal success. I did however have a failure as no matter what I tried it refused to feed photo paper in any way....

  • Excellent WiFi connectivity; wireless printing from smartphone app,
  • Photocopies come out a bit pale.
  • The Brother MFC-J430W all-in-one printer is compact, chic, easy to use and clearly laid out and manages to produce decent quality documents and photos at reasonably fast speeds. Photocopies are not wonderful, though, and a couple of standard fixtures a...

  • Well-featured software bundle, Easy to use, ‘inverted' ADF, Wireless connection with WPS
  • Pale colour photo copies, No photo card readers, Small LCD display
  • Brother only quotes draft speeds for the MFC-J430W, with 33ppm for black print and 26ppm for colour. Under test, we saw 6.5ppm on our five-page black text print and 8.6ppm when printed in ‘fast' mode, which we assume is draft by another name. Some way off...
