Our Verdict
Brother MFC-J995DW
Canon PIXMA TR7520
The Brother MFC-J995DW and the Canon PIXMA TR7520 are all-in-one color inkjet printers with flatbed scanners, automatic document feeders, and faxing capabilities. They also have similar photo printing quality and color accuracy. However, the Brother uses the proprietary INKvestment Tank ink system for a vastly superior page yield and cost-per-print. It also produces color documents more quickly, has an Ethernet port, and can print directly from USB flash drives and SD cards.
