Living up to its small-office billing, the MFC-J895DW printed text significantly faster than the average of 8.6 ppm. Doing so in only 1 minute and 14 seconds, it bested the Canon Pixma TS9120 by 32 seconds, or 4.9 ppm versus 3.4 ppm. The MFC-J895DW also printed our six-page color graphics document quickly. Because the hinge offers no resistance, you must hold it up while loading a document onto the glass or lift it a full 90 degrees to free both hands. The scanner lid is heavy because of the 20-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF), which can handle up to legal-size paper. The only exception came when I entered my network password the tiny on-screen keyboard letters required heavy presses. Most menus offer large on-screen buttons that respond well. Navigation with the touch screen is largely seamless. Given the Work Smart moniker, I was expecting to be able to print Word documents, but that option is not offered. When you select Photo, the screen displays four photo thumbnails at a time you tap the on-screen arrows to navigate through them. When you insert a USB thumb drive, the on-screen menu offers three options: Photo, Scan to Media, and Web (for cloud printing from OneNote, Dropbox, Evernote, etc.). On the lower left of the front panel is a door covering a USB memory port and an SD card slot.
