Our Verdict

Canon PIXMA TS702a

Brother MFC-J1010DW

The Canon PIXMA TS702a and Brother MFC-J1010DW are both great budget inkjet printers. The Brother is the better choice for printing documents and scanning. It stands out for its low cost per print, as well as for its fast printing and scanning speeds. However, it produces pictures with a visible printing pattern, so photo printing isn't recommended. By contrast, you should get the Canon if you print a lot of photos at home. It excels at photo printing thanks to its fairly wide color gamut and very good color accuracy. As a print-only unit, you can't scan anything with it.
