...many pages will the CL-513 print? You can expect to get approximately 349 pages from this cartridge if you are printing with an average page coverage of 5%. However in reality it is likely to be less than this as 5% is a pretty light coverage for an average user. For more on page coverage please check out our article on the subject here.

Brother MFC-J265W Printer Review
...ou that you are not using the manufacturers own. In conclusion the Brother MFC-J265W is an ideal printer for a small office due to its high print speeds, low running cost, scanning copying and fax functionality. However as mentioned previously if a built in fax machine is not essential for you then you may wish to check out some other printers in Brothers inkjet range. Whilst the build quality is excellent if you need a machine that will be printi...
Brother DCP-J515W Printer Review
...nting instead of relying upon gravity fed paper popular in the majority of inkjet printers. This tray also has a separate paper feed for 6”x4” paper which is ideal for quickly reeling of a photo. The only negative point about the paper feed is the maximum paper thickness of 220gsm for the printer owing to the fact that paper has to turn 180 degrees inside the printer before it can be printed on. Like all Brother inkjet printers it takes comparativ...
Brother DCP-195/197C Printer Review
...nter a very cheap and trouble free printer to run. Printing at a maximum of 33 pages per minute it is a pretty fast inkjet printer and relatively quiet when compared to some of the competition. However with a resolution of 1200 by 6000dpi it does not give the sharpest photo prints and keen photographers may be better off looking at 6+ colour Epson/Canon machines. That said the quality of photo prints to the naked eye is acceptable and should be ju...
Looking to buy a new printer? What’s the best choice?
...run. Many will simply purchase a new machine they have seen so many £15-£20 printers on “offer” at larger chain stores. The danger with buying such a machine is that you will normally regret it as soon as you come to buy your first set of ink cartridges. The reason being many of these printers take just two individual cartridges that can cost over £70 to replace the pair. Even if an alternative is available as these cartridges normally have the p...
Brother DCP-J315W Printer Review
...e at Refresh we sell them for as little as £1.87 a cartridge. At 28/35ppm (pages per minute) this is a pretty speedy machine and although it is a little slower can produce excellent high quality photo prints, with the additional option of borderless printing. With a scan resolution of 19,200 x 19,200dpi (dots per inch) the same high quality can be expected from the built in scanner/copier. In summery the Brother DCP-J315W is ideal for home with it...
Sumvision N-Cube Pro 2.1 Speaker System Review
...ided goes from phono to a 3.5mm audio jack typically used with a PC or MP3 player player it would be possible to connect the phono ports on your TV etc. if you should wish. However I would only recommend this for smaller kitchen/bedroom set-ups as the design of the unit is geared towards use with a PC and may not hold up too favourably if you are trying to watch a blockbuster film in a high ceilinged room. The disadvantages of the wonderful set ar...
HiPoint Webcam VCH8-M30LA Review
...the only illumination I could find in such conditions was provided by the glow of my monitor and not from the faint glow of 3 white LEDs. Its disappointing that a feature like this would be so heavily advertised on the front of the packaging but not be at all true once you plug the camera in. Another eccentricity I found was a digital camera style button for taking still s in placed on top of the unit. I could not find support for the feature in t...
BCL CD-360W Dynamic Headset Review
...into the category of budget peripherals. These headsets come in black or pink and they look pretty nice. They are not particularly stylish but only the most egocentric of computer user will be ashamed to be seen wearing one. The build quality is also great and first impressions are that this unit will last many years if treated right. A flexible almost leather strap runs independently on the inside of the metal headband to avoid it digging in and...
