The
Brother MFC-J5330DW might look like your typical multifunction
printer(opens in new tab), but it's got more than a few tricks up its sleeve. First and foremost, this machine can also print on A3.
Due to its deep 250-page capacity paper tray, rapid duplex (two-sided) print speeds, the inclusion of a fax facility and a 50-page ADF (automatic document feeder), we can see that the
Brother MFC-J5330DW is aimed at the busy small to medium business user. It's not a home
printer (opens in new tab), so you won’t find consumer-friendly features like an SD card slot or NFC for hooking up a mobile device, but this machine does offer Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity along with the usual square USB port.
The
Brother J5330DW is a well-specified inkjet with a fairly high print resolution of 4,800 x 1,200 dpi – which makes it rather good at printing photos on photo paper – and its scan resolution is only slightly lower at 2,400 x 1,200 dpi.
If the
Brother MFC-J5330DW was merely an A4 multifunction
Brother MFC-J5330DW
printer, like the Canon Maxify MB2750, we would complain about it taking up a little more desk space. However, the fact that it can accept A3 puts it in a very different bracket. A4 sheets can be loaded into the tray in a portrait orientation, which means the drawer doesn’t stick out awkwardly, as with most A4 printers. Or you can extend the tray and fill it with 250 sheets of A3 paper. The scanner bed, however, is limited to A4.
As a four-in-one MFP, this
Brother MFC-J5330DW offering can print, scan, copy and fax like a trooper. And as with most models aimed at the small to medium business it is well-featured, with both Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity, the latter of which includes Wi-Fi Direct in case you want to make a wireless connection without involving a router.
You can also use the excellent companion app to print and scan wirelessly from a mobile device. The
Brother iPrint & Scan app is a free download for iOS and Android.
Printing speeds of up to 22 ppm (pages per minute) in mono, or 20 ppm in colour, are claimed, although we found this MFP rather slower than that. It does print on both sides of the page, though, and a bonus feature that you only get with A3
printers MFC-J5330DW is the ability to print A5 booklets.

Being an inkjet model, you will be committed to buying expensive cartridge refills for the rest of the
printer’s MFC-J5330DW life, but the cost is no worse than that of rival brands. The four coloured inks dispense separately, so you’re not forced into replacing the whole lot when one runs out, and if you choose the high-yield XL cartridges at £20.30 (around $26, AU$36) each, you can print up to 1,500 pages.
