Brother MFC-J742DWN all-in-one printer

Brother MFC-J742DWN Driver gives the computer the software link needed for this all-in-one printer’s printing, scanning, copying, and faxing functions. After installation, the system can detect the machine through USB or a wireless connection. Scan and copy jobs pass through that same device link, while fax tasks rely on correct command transfer between the computer and printer. Documents, scanned originals, copied pages, and fax data can then move through the machine without separate hardware.

Brother MFC-J742DWN Specifications

Brother MFC-J742DWN is an A4 colour inkjet all-in-one with print, copy, scan, fax, telephone, and two cordless handset functions. A 2.7-inch touch-panel LCD sits on the body, together with 256 MB of memory and a compact flatbed scanner. Four separate LC511 cartridges supply pigment black and dye-based cyan, magenta, and yellow inks. Closed dimensions are 390 x 343 x 148.5 mm, while weight is about 6.3 kg without the cordless handsets.

Printing reaches up to 1200 x 6000 dpi, and the smallest ink droplet is 1.5 pl. On A4 plain paper, speed runs at about 15 ipm in monochrome and 9 ipm in colour. Ink-save mode raises draft speed to about 27 ppm and 11 ppm. First print time is about 6.2 seconds for mono output and 9.6 seconds for colour. L-size photo output takes about 63 seconds in high-quality mode.

Scanning relies on the flatbed glass because no automatic document feeder is fitted. The scanner accepts originals up to A4 size, while scan quality reaches 1200 x 2400 dpi from the glass. Through interpolation, software can raise resolution to 19200 x 19200 dpi. Copying reaches 1200 x 2400 dpi, produces up to 99 copies, and allows 25 to 400 percent resizing. Other copy settings cover N-in-1 copy, poster copy, sorting, and density adjustment.

A front tray holds up to 150 sheets of plain paper, while printed sheets collect in the 50-sheet output tray. The one-sheet manual feed takes the A4-to-photo range, including postcards, index cards, hagaki, and envelopes. Automatic duplex printing is not fitted on this DWN version. USB flash direct printing is absent as well. Connections include Hi-Speed USB 2.0, wireless LAN on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, and Mopria.
