Brother INKvestment 4355
Score: 79/100Rankings
The Epson EcoTank ET-4800 is a wireless all-in-one printer that uses high-capacity ink tanks for low-cost color printing and includes a 30-sheet ADF, fax, and Ethernet connectivity. Its manual duplex, modest speeds, and limited duty cycle keep it from high-throughput office use. Ideal for home offices and small businesses that value ink economy and versatile connectivity.
The Brother INKvestment 4355 MFC-J4355DW is a feature-rich color inkjet all-in-one with automatic duplex, a 20-sheet ADF, touchscreen, and fax capability. Its limitations include the absence of Ethernet and single-sided ADF scanning. It fits well in small offices or home workspaces requiring color printing and multifunction features.

Professional reviewers commend the ET-4800 for its cartridge-free ink system that dramatically cuts operating costs, its high resolution output, and its robust connectivity options including Ethernet. The large 30-sheet ADF and borderless photo capability are also seen as strong points for home-office and small-business users, though the manual duplex and modest print speeds are noted as trade-offs compared with higher-end models.
Consumers love the low cost per print, the 30-sheet ADF and the ability to print from phones and tablets. The main complaints are about the manual duplex, slower speeds and the limited duty cycle for heavy users.
Pros: Automatic duplex printing enables effortless double-sided document output, saving paper and time.; 20-sheet automatic document feeder allows batch copying, scanning, and faxing without manual loading.; 1.8-inch color touchscreen provides intuitive navigation and cloud app integration for easy printing.; Dual-band wireless (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) supports reliable mobile and cloud printing from various devices.; Compact footprint (17.1" × 13.5" × 7.1") fits comfortably on small desks or home office spaces.; Color print speed of up to 19 ppm delivers fast output for mixed-color document workloads.; ENERGY STAR certification reduces power consumption by 20-30 % compared to federal standards. Cons: ADF supports only single-sided scanning, lacking duplex scanning capability for double-sided documents.; Maximum paper tray capacity of 150 sheets may require frequent refilling during larger print jobs.; No built-in Ethernet port limits wired network connectivity options for office environments.; Black print speed of 20 ppm may be slower than competing high-speed office printers.; Maximum print resolution of 1,200 × 4,800 dpi may not meet professional photo-printing quality expectations.
