Sydney, Australia - 15th December, 2016 – Continuing its dominance of PCMag’s annual awards, Brother, a leader in office workflow solutions, has been recognised with its eighth consecutive Readers’ Choice Award for best printers. Brother printers were also recognised with PCMag’s Business Choice Award for the fourth year in a row.

This is the eighth consecutive year that Brother has been recognised by PCMag readers as the best in overall satisfaction for printers. Brother also received top scores for satisfaction in several other categories including setup experience, satisfaction with reliability, document output quality, and cost of ink and toner. Brother printers were also recognised as needing the least repairs in the last twelve months.

“This is our 28th year of recognising outstanding technology products and services for their reliability,” said Dan Costa, Editor-in-Chief of PCMag. “Brother has dominated the Readers’ Choice awards for printers in nearly every category for almost a decade. Our readers love the brand for both home and workplace printing.”

Brother Printers Receive Top Scores in Multiple Categories

The PCMag Readers’ Choice Awards are based on overall customer satisfaction and printer attributes including setup, reliability, printing quality, technical support, repairs and the cost of consumables.

In addition to the best overall rating, Brother printers also dominated the subcategories earning recognition as the best printers less than a year old, printers for home, inkjet all-in-one printers, monochrome laser printers, monochrome all-in-one laser printers, and colour all-in-one laser printers.

“This consistent recognition from the readers of PCMag speaks to our commitment to delivering the highest quality, most cost efficient printers,” said Stefanie Murphy, Marketing Specialist at Brother International Australia. “Our leadership in the printer category is also a testament to the dedication shown by all of our employees from product developers to our customer support team.”

The PCMag Readers’ Choice winners are determined by an email survey of PCMag community members that subscribe to the Readers' Choice Survey mailing list. This year’s survey was conducted between  June 20, 2016 and July 11, 2016. Respondents were asked to rate their printer using multiple questions about their overall satisfaction with the solution, as well as experiences with technical support within the past 12 months.
