The editors didn't like
Default settings can create grainy graphics and flaws along edge of printhead path
The printer ships with small reservoir "starter" ink cartridges and its 150-sheet paper capacity demands more frequent refills from busy offices
Although speed and output quality are generally acceptable
Neither is impressive. Sub-par graphics quality
Noisy when printing
Color scanning
Printing speeds are a bit sluggish
Photo print quality a minor step behind competing midrange models
Soso print quality with muddy text and dull images. Can't used wired and wireless connections at once. Build quality feels flimsy. Passthrough slot only takes one sheet at a time. Unhelpful error messages
Abstract: There are many different all-in-one printers for home use on the market. We tested 11 of them, ranging from affordable entry-level models to expensive high-end ones. We also took a closer look at a couple of the more advanced printers we've tested in re...

The Brother MFC-J4510DW can print on A3 paper, but the quality falls behind the best
Too expensive to buy; no Mountain Lion driver in the box; average print quality
This grey and white box is fairly attractive, not too bulky and offers solid all-round performance, but is that enough to justify such a high price? We've seen it for sale online at closer to £175, and the running costs do compensate to some extent, but t...
Cost per page: 6.1 pence using XL cartrdiges, Colour touchscreen, WiFi, Numeric touchkeys, Doublesided printing, Ink cartridges easy to reach, sold in two sizes
Washed out colours on text documents, No PS3 or PCL6 support, The odd paper jam
Attractive design, prints on A3, reasonably straightforward setup, joy to use, buttons light up when you need them, extensive connectivity options, cloud computing credentials
Paper needs to be replaced a little too often, black a little faint at fastest mode, colour faint and watered down in all modes
If you're primarily needing a graphics printer, you'll find better models. But text output is good, and the features set substantial. Throw in the added convenience of the odd A3 document, and the Brother MFC-J4510DW has an awful lot going for it. Shar...
Abstract: Brother has long made all-in-one printers which can handle A3 as well as A4 paper, but most were massive. The MFC-J4510DW inkjet is a new, much smaller design that uses some clever techniques to achieve the reduced size.It feeds A4 sheets sideways, lon...
Abstract: Printers tend to fall into distinct categories offering the user a choice of either / or facilities. You could select from a laser or inkjet model. Perhaps a standalone unit or a multi-function device that can provide print, copy, scan and possibly fax...
We were duly impressed by the Brother MFC-J4510DW. It performs really well in many aspects. It looks good, has more than enough features and has a very nice control panel. The connectors are sufficient, and the presence of Wi-Fi Direct enables you to co...
Quicker print, Good looks, inc ‘flat top' ADF, Mobile print and scan
Plain paper print ‘fuzzy', Rear feed guides too small, Noisy when printing A4
What would you consider revolutionary in the design of an inkjet printer? How does, printing across the page, rather than down it sound? That's it, printing every A4 page in landscape mode. If it doesn't sound like such a big deal, you should have a word...
Abstract: The Brother MFC-J4510DW isn't your typical cream breezeblock MFD. This model, middle in Brother's new range, is sold only through Dixons/PC World until March 2013, priced at £180. See: more printer reviews . The Brother MFC-J4510DW surprises you from...
