Despite the wildly varying price, this is an excellent all-round home-office printer with more speed and versatility than cheaper models.

The business-oriented Brother MFC-J5330DW is a capable wide-format, low-volume color inkjet all-in-one printer. It's relatively fast, and it prints fairly well overall, albeit with some flawed business graphics.
