    All-in-one with very low operating costs and big ink yields

    The Brother INKvestment MFC-J995DW is a compact all-in-one inkjet designed for home offices and small teams that print in moderate volumes. It ships with large, high-yield cartridges and an internal ink reservoir, delivering a low cost per page and minimal interruptions for long print runs.

In testing, it delivered fast text printing and solid copy/scan quality, with notably low ongoing ink costs versus traditional cartridge systems.
