Our Verdict

Brother MFC-J995DW

Kyocera ECOSYS P2235dw

The Brother MFC-J995DW is overall better than the Kyocera ECOSYS P2235dw, but the Kyocera is an excellent choice if you only intend on printing in black and white. While the Kyocera's cost-per-print for black documents is slightly higher, it has a much higher page yield and it prints significantly faster. On the other hand, the Brother can print in color and produces impressive-looking photos. It also has a flatbed scanner and a sheetfed scanner, and you can print Microsoft Office files from its mobile app.
