MFC recommendations that work with PC and thus I can use Jaws
|
Lauren
Hi:
I currently have a Canon laser MFC that allows me to print, scan, copy and fax - all features I need. However, to print an envelope, I have to do many steps on the printer, which is nearly impossible to always replicate being totally blind. Can anyone recommend a laser MFC that would enable me to control everything from the computer? Sincerely, Lauren -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You didn't say if you needed a printer that does color or not. I have a Brother MFC-2740DW which comes with Brother's software, called Control Center 4. It takes just a little getting used to, but I can control nearly everything about this printer once it's set up properly. It's fantastic. I haven't specifically tried envelopes on it, but I don't expect I would have any problems. Pretty much all the controls read with JAWS. I have found that if I create custom presets for functions, the labels that I assign to them don't read. But that's the only thing that stands out to me as iffy. This device has a touchscreen, but I just don't use it. I can copy and scan from the computer using Control Center 4, and JAWS handles it fine. Note: I chose the 2740 because it can scan both sides of a document in one pass. If that's not important to you, the other Brother models in that line all come with Control Center, including the MFC-L2700DW, and the DCP models if you don't need Fax capability. I've been pleased.

Oops, I should have mentioned I need it to be a color laser MFC.

software. I suspect that it works about as well as Adrian's Brother MFP, and the JAWS interface seems fine. The one I have was put out before they had touch screens, and I cannot tell you if the newest "OfficeJets" has this feature; but, I am fairly sure that you would deal with it the same way. Others on this list, I am sure, use other colour MFPs that would suit your needs. Good luck. I look forward to your review on how well whatever you choose works with JAWS.

I just purchased an HP OfficeJet about a month ago. I find that jaws works very well with it.

Woo, you're talking about some serious cash. But I'm pretty certain the color Brother MFCs come with Control Center also. Here's the cheapest one I can find:
