Measuring 405 X 378 X 180, the Brother DCP-J925DW wireless colour inkjet all-in-one with duplex and disk printing is a stunning piece of machinery. A very basic, sharp box-like design is complemented by a glimmering black and charcoal colour scheme, which gives a unique sense of style to the Brother DCP-J925DW. This 9.3 kg printer has four individual Brother DCP J925DW Ink Cartridges, providing page yield of 600 pages for each colour (Black, cyan, Magenta and Yellow). The main paper tray can take up to 100 sheets and has a built-in photo tray of 20 sheets on top, providing features to load both media at once. The photo tray is automatically not powered, so you have to remove the whole cartridge and slide the photo tray forward by hand to print photos.

If you're looking for a home printer that offers transparent and regular photographic images, the Brother DCPJ925DW inkjet printer is worth buying.

Why do the Brother DCP J925DW colour ink cartridges run out of ink even though I never or rarely print in colour?

• One factor affecting the use of colour inks is the cleaning cycle of the machine. The system is designed to flush and clean all the ink jet nozzles automatically on a programmed schedule. A daily cleaning or flushing of all the Brother DCP J925DW Ink Cartridges takes place about every two days. The machine draws a small amount of ink during the cleaning process to extract air bubbles from the cartridge, and clear dust and dried ink from the ink nozzles and channels. This not only guarantees excellent print quality but also ensures print head life.
• Another factor that could be affecting the colour ink consumption from the Brother DCP J925DW Ink cartridges is the amount of machine printing, even if the print jobs are just black. The default setting in the print driver is COLOUR, since this system provides full colour printing. This means that the computer blends all the colours automatically to create a selected colour, including black.
• If you want to print from the computer using the black ink only, you need to change the printing preferences to GREYSCALE, and also select Plain Paper at the Media type. To change the printing preferences to GREYSCALE, and select Plain Paper as Media Type follow the steps listed below:
  • Open the Printing Preferences.
  • Open Advanced tab.
  • Select Greyscale at the Colour/Greyscale section.
  • Open the Basic tab and select Plain Paper at the Media Type section.

Note: If you select other Media Type than Plain Paper, colour inks are used. While selecting greyscale printing in the printer driver it uses only the black ink and not all the Brother DCP J925DW Ink Cartridges to produce the greyscale images.
