  • Has two paper trays holding a maximum of 400 sheets.


Make high-quality prints, copies, scans, and faxes with the MFC-6490cw.
Large Prints for a Big Impact
Unlike most printers and multi-function devices in this range, the MFC-6490cw prints on up to ledger-size (11 x 17-inch) paper, giving you the versatility to print presentations, signs, reports, photos, and other print-outs that will give you a more dramatic visual impact.

Built-In Wireless and Wired Network Capability
The MFC-6490cw features both a built-in 10/100 Ethernet and 802.11b/g Wireless networking interface. Simply connect it to your router and everyone on the network with wireless capabilities can print, scan, fax, and access the digital camera media cards. With support for WiFi Protected Setup, network security setup is as easy as a push of the button.

Fast, High Quality Printing in Color
The MFC-6490cw offers up to 35ppm black and 28ppm color printing, so you'll never be kept waiting. Featuring a 4-cartridge ink system, the device can print up to a maximum resolution of 6000 x 1200 dpi for outstanding, crisp text and photo quality. Borderless prints are no problem, and the device includes two input trays with a capacity of 150 pages and 250 pages each. The printer has a recommended monthly print volume of up to 2000 pages, and a maximum monthly duty cycle of up to 5,000 printed pages.

Scan, Copy, and Fax
In addition to answering your printing needs, you can also rely on the MFC-6490cw for your black-and-white and color scanning. With an optical resolution of 1200 x 2400 dpi with a 48-bit color depth, you'll get crisp, clear scans of photos, as well as text. Included OCR software for both PC and Macs lets you convert documents into editable text. Scanned documents and images can be exported as graphic files such as TIFF, JPEG, BMP, and PDF.



Edit and print photos directly from your digital camera and memory cards.
You can also make high-quality copies without the need for turning on your computer. Simply place up to 50 pages on the automatic document feeder for copies at a speed of up to 23 copies per minute black and 20 cpm color. Just as with printing, you can copy up to ledger-size sheets. The copier automatically sorts and can reduce and enlarge from 25 to 400 percent of the original.

The fax function has Super G3 capability, which means that you can transmit black-and-white and color faxes at the fastest speed possible (approximately three seconds per page). Out-of-paper reception, auto fax reduction, fax forwarding for black-and-white faxes, and automatic redial are all supported. The fax machine is caller ID and call waiting caller ID ready.

Built-in Media Card Reader for Quick Photo Printing
The MFC-6490cw's PhotoCapture Center has a memory reader for CF, MS, MS Pro, SD, SDHC, xD, xD type M/H, and USB Flash drives, letting you pull photos you've taken and edit them directly on the integrated widescreen 3.3-inch color LCD display. You can crop, auto correct, enhance skin tone, enhance scenery, remove red-eye, and convert to monochrome or sepia, and then print them out.

The Brother MFC-6490cw measure 21.3 x 12.7 x 19.2-inches (WxHxD) and weighs 34 pounds. It is backed by a 2-year warranty.

5 out of 5 stars Thank you Brother - I've waited 20 years for this printer.   October 9, 2008
HP used to be my favorite printer, but they have turned out mostly junk over the past few years. This is not news to most people.

In the engineering & construction industry, we use mostly 11x17 size prints. I bought this Brother multi-function unit just for capability to print that size... and I wanted a unit that I could move to job sites without breaking my back.

The printing is great, but the additional functions - scanning, copying, faxing, etc. all work great too. This is a very sophisticated unit, yet fairly easy to use. You need to go into the menu and tell it which size paper you have in each tray (especially if you put 11x17 in one of them), then life is easy.

Thanks, Brother. This is a great product that I have truly been needing for the past 20 years. I think it's a bargain at this price and I'm buying a second unit for the house.



4 out of 5 stars Very Pleased   October 7, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Purchased this to print 11x17 from CAD application and have not been disappointed. Extremely fine lines on prints so detail is wonderful even when large sheet sizes are scaled to fit on smaller paper sizes. Needed brother support due to a networking issue. Support was great; we had to assign a permanent IP address for the printer. Now there are no problems.

Gave four stars instead of 5 only because I haven't figured out why the printer doesn't autoselect the correct paper tray for different page sizes being printed. Plan to call support, but anticipate it is a setting I've missed.

Haven't used the scanning.




5 out of 5 stars Best printer I've owned so far!   September 30, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

The good:
* This printer is one of the best I've owned so far!
* It prints quickly, and the colors are good.
* Setup was easy and fast; my three Macs and one Dell PC all print to (and scan from) it wirelessly.
* I can select any of my computers -- including my Macs -- from the printer LCD and scan to it.
* I can "print" any document as a fax to a phone number, and that works well.
* The 11x17 paper size is GREAT for the kinds of documents I print.
* I can see supply levels from my Macs...wirelessly.
* I can't stress enough how impressed I am with the wireless support for this printer in the Mac drivers. I've tried a variety of Airport Express units and dedicated WiFi printer hubs with other printers (HP, Epson, and Canon) in the past, and they either didn't work, or only had partial functionality. This is the first one that does everything on both the Mac and Windows XP without compromise.

The bad:
* It doesn't print double-sided without having to manually flip the paper over; I thought I read somewhere it would, but it doesn't. One of the benefits of 11x17 paper is to print 4-panel "booklets" and this manual step slows that down.
* The Auto Document Feeder only seems to work when faxing; I haven't been able to figure out how to use it for scanning. Perhaps it doesn't, or I just don't know how to make it work...

The unknown:
* I've read about how quickly the ink runs out on this printer, but I haven't experienced that yet. I'll let you know if this is a problem after I've had the printer long enough to find out.

All in all, I'm VERY happy with this printer purchase.
