Boost productivity Brother’s X-Series range has been designed to boost productivity and efficiency. With a low total cost of ownership and impressive cost per page when printing large volumes, the devices are ideal for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that are looking for opportunities to reduce costs without compromising on quality. The X-Series printers have a straightforward and intuitive user interface, with easy to set up web connect features. On the multifunction devices users have the option to scan direct to various locations including USB, email, network locations and even cloud storage services plus many more. Using the ADF is simple and great for A4 documents but if users want to scan larger documents such as blueprints up to A3 then the flatbed is just as easy. Security The X-Series also helps organisations to maintain business-critical robust security standards. Built-in features such as IPsec support and access control, that conforms to IEEE 802.1x standards, help to keep networks protected. Automatic intrusion detection capability means devices will automatically recognise attacks and take preventative measures to ensure systems are safe. The X-Series also offers secure document sharing via SFTP, with data being encrypted and password protected when it is transferred, and secure printing via SSL encryption. An easy to use Secure Function Lock feature, means IT managers can restrict certain machine functionality and print capabilities to designated users if desired. For commercially-sensitive documents, the optional SecurePrint+ feature also delays printing until the job is released with an assigned, NFC- enabled card. Connectivity options The range supports smarter working with a variety of connectivity options, including print for Android and iOS devices via NFC, wireless, AirPrint and Google Cloud Print compatibility. The models can be integrated with cloud services such as One Drive for Business, Google Drive and Dropbox, meaning they’ll fit easily into organisations’ existing workflows. www.brother.co.uk Brother X-Series Professional A3 business inkjets Editor’s Choice: PrintIT Reseller What we liked: • Business-orientated features • Best-in-class first page out times • Low total cost of ownership • Intuitive user interface • Security built-in The X-Series printers have a straightforward and intuitive user interface, with easy to set up web connect features Brother’s high-end professional A3 business inkjets – the X-Series – have business-orientated features including various connectivity options, an NFC reader, built-in security options as well as high yield inks for low running costs and multiple paper trays to allow users to choose A5, A4 or A3 printouts at the touch of a button.
