The Brother MFC-J415W makes a good argument for itself as an all-in-one multifunction printer for a small business. If your main needs are pumping out draft-quality documents quickly, and faxing and scanning, the MFC-J415W is appropriate and well priced. The inclusion of faxing and an automatic document feeder at this price is welcome and makes the printer an attractive proposition, even if we don't like the graphical interface and the poor paper capacity.
