It doesn’t really come out that well on the recording (remember, €500 gets you an old t-shirt and a cassette tape with a recording of my voice), but there’s the turning on chime, a few tapping on the screen clicks and the goodbye sound.
I carefully selected this specific printer model, but the high quality audio it produced was a big surprise. I didn’t expect it to produce any, or at most some kind of piezoelectric single-tone beep thingy.
It’s a really communicative printer. I have to admit that I’ve never payed attention to the noises of my printer … (Compared to the matrix printers in the 80s he is very silent… )
It’s a pity you can’t play the chimes in isolation. In real life you can clearly hear how good the speaker sounds but the physical printer noises hide it much better on the recording.
It’s possible that the noises it makes were tailored to the speaker, but in theory it sounds like it’s no worse than the speakers on my phone or laptop. The truly amazing part is that it might even be better.
Edit: oh, I forgot, that’s the Brother DCP-9020CDW. I absolutely adore the ADF feature. In retrospect it’s scary to think I almost opted to save €15 or so to get a model without.
