Q: QuestionIs this printer dual wand itch 2.4 and 5 GHz?
Asked by Poopscala.
- A:Answer The standard specification for Dual Band routers allow devices connected to different bands (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz) to communicate. Your computer can be connected to the 5 GHz band network and be able to print or scan (depending on your machine's specifications), to the Brother machine connected to the 2.4 GHz band. Your Brother MFCJ1205W will only connect to the 2.4 GHz wireless band. The Brother machine will not "see" or connect to the 5 GHz band of your router. Below is a link with more information on Compatibility with 5 GHz, Dual Band wireless router, or Mesh networks.

Q: QuestionCan I buy refill cartridges? Who sells them and how much are they?
Asked by RandallStephens.

Q: QuestionHow does the scanner work?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Works great on this model. Brother includes the iPrint and Scan software so it works well. The thing to keep in mind is that this model scans one page at a time. It does not have an automatic document feeder that lets you feed in multiple pages at a time. If you need that feature get the next model up.
