Overview

Canon pairs a fast mono laser engine with a document feeder and color scanning in this imageCLASS printer, which skips fax for a simpler print, copy and scan setup. It prints from phones through AirPrint, Mopria and Canon apps.

Dropping fax trims the feature list for home offices that never use it, while keeping speed, duplex and a feeder. Paper capacity and print resolution are missing from the specs.

Who it's for

Freelancers and small households printing documents and scanning receipts get a quick, wireless laser. Offices that rely on fax should choose the fax-equipped sibling.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Fast mono printing
  • Auto document feeder
  • Phone printing support
  • High capacity toner available
Cons
  • Black prints only
  • Paper capacity not listed

Performance notes

Print speed comes from the laser engine, and duplex runs pass each sheet through twice, slowing two-sided jobs. Scan speed is quicker in black and white than in color because the sensor captures less data per page.
