The next generation color laser Multi-Function Center (MFC) for Small and Medium Business (SMB) users DCP-9040CN busts the myth among business owners that these are too expensive to own and maintain. Leveraging on its own proprietary print engine technology, Brother's revolutionary Color Laser MFCs (3-in-1, 5-in-1 and 6-in-1) aim to redefine business color printing by offering business owners total control over their top three concerns namely data security, cost of purchase and operating costs.

Brother's range of color laser printers allows users to print high quality monochrome documents even when the color toner cartridges run out. This further demonstrates Brother's deep understanding of the needs of today's SMBs. In addition, Brother's high-yield toners ensure users achieve the most value out of their consumables as well as one of the lowest cost per page for both color and monochrome printing. Ideal for the office environment, each color laser MFCs is equipped with the Lock Color Usage feature giving corporate administrators the ability to restrict color print usage by user. Users are required to enter a password to print color documents. This feature enables business owners to maintain control against employee usage abuse.

Bearing in mind that office space is precious, Brother developed the horizontal tandem engine to give each model a more compact and lower profile. Its full frontal operation adds to the convenience of changing the consumables or loading of paper. In addition, business users wanting to print documents and images directly from USB media devices can do so from built-in USB interface at the front of the printers.
