Brother MFC-990CW

The Brother MFC-990CW is an all-in-one Bluetooth-enabled digital answering machine, copier, scanner, fax machine, and inkjet printer designed for printing, faxing, copying, or scanning school projects, photos, recipes, web pages, and much more. A step up from the Brother MFC-790CW, Brother MFC-990CW adds Bluetooth Wireless Technology so that users can easily print JPEG photos directly from their handheld devices. Like its peer, the MFC-990CW features ultra-past print & copy speeds, a 4.2” touchscreen display fore previewing & enhancing documents/photos, and a digital answering machine that holds up to 29 minutes of messages. The MFC-790CW also includes compatibility for PictBridge-enabled cameras, USB flash memory drives, and multimedia cards such as Secure Digital, Compact Flesh, and Memory Stick. The MFC-990CW makes it easy to not only print from a Wi-Fi or Ethernet network, but even directly from your camera. The Brother MFC-990CW retails for $229.99.
