With products usually aimed at business customers, Brother’s new sub-$200 wide format printer has some serious homey implications too.

The new MFC-5890CN networked all-in-one does the copying, scanning and faxing — which we’re cool with — but the big deal about this bad boy is that it also lets you make 11″ X 17″ prints for just $199.

Brother threw out a few other models Wednesday also, including the $129, networked MFC-5490CN that does up to legal-sized prints. There’s also the MFC-6490CW, which lets you do all of the above, including 11-by-17’s for $299.

We’re looking at September/October for these bad boys.
