An MFC is a Multi-Function Center. These machines prints, copies, scans, and sometimes fax. Some of them come with automatic document feeders, but many do not therefore making the copy and scanning option a basic function at that. My computer company would have 2 lineups of MFC. One will be a tank inkjet system, and the other will be a laser system. There will be some features that are the same with both machines, and while the price will likely be higher, one will save in the cost of ink or toner cartridges. The features are as follows:
- Automatic Document Feeder (10 sheet)
- Fax via POTS, Fax Over Internet Protocol
- copy, fax, print, and scan
- RJ-11, RJ-45, and WiFi-7
- Scan to email
- Print from smartphone
- 2 100 sheet paper trays
