I have been looking for a Canon all in one printer which I can depend on to provide my needs for my businesses. Luckily, I found the Canon imageCLASS MF4370DN Laser All-in-One Printer which I am more than happy to have, but I do not want to just say it in plain words. I also want you to know why I admire this device, so I wrote this review for your enlightenment.
Design
Canon
The printer has a nice gray-black finish which is quite unusual for a laser all in one, since most of these devices are plain white. It's also quite compact with the dimensions of 15.4" x 21.0" x 17.9" and a weight of 27.6 pounds without a cartridge. It's not suitable for frequent transferring from one place to another, but it's definitely easy to set up on any table top or shelf. But what makes this device a better one compared to many other Canon all in one printers is that it's internet-enabled and can be used by multiple users connected in a single network. All you have to do is activate a wireless router and install the settings in all the computers you want to include in the network and connect the printer through an Ethernet cable, and once they are all connected in that network, you can use all the computers to print on this device.
The LCD display is quite plain and is used mainly for viewing basic information while the device performs its various tasks. The device is a multifunctional machine so it doesn't just offer plain monochrome printing - it also provides scanning, copying, and faxing. This is a plus for me because I really have a lot of use for those functions.
Printing and Other Functions
As a laser printer, I can't ask for more from this model. You can ask the many other users of this model and they will all tell you that it prints excellently. It can print to a speed of 23 pages per minute for letter size documents. It also produces documents of up to 1,200x600 dpi resolutions. There are two trays, the multifunctional and the cassette paper trays, which allow you to keep more paper for the less need of refilling.
The copier can produce the same speed of copies per minute as the printer with resolutions of 600x600 dpi. You can reduce or enlarge your documents on preset sizes of 50%, 64%, 78%, 129%, and 200%. The platen copy input can reproduce documents with a maximum size of 8.5'' x 11.7'' while for bigger documents up to 8.5'' x 14'', you can use the ADF copy input. The copier also has toner saver mode which allows you to save a lot more ink and even paper using the 2 on 1 feature which lets you reproduce two documents in a single page.
The scanner makes use of color contact image sensor technology to produce document images with a bit depth of 24-bit. The platen input can scan a maximum document size of 8.5'' x 11.7'' while the ADF input can scan up to 8.5'' x 14''. It can also create images in PDF, JPEG, TIFF, and BMP formats.
The fax machine can produce super fine text resolutions of up to 203x391 dpi and save up to 256 pages in the memory. There are 100 dials that can be saved in the memory with eight one-touch speed dials. The fax can also print duplex automatically so it allows you to save a lot more paper.
Other Features
The duplex printing feature of this device is applicable for all printing, copying, and faxing functions. The Ethernet port makes network use a lot easier and can provide accessibility even for computers at different areas within the network. You can print on the device downstairs even if your computer is in the room upstairs. The printer makes use of a single cartridge which lets you save more money as compared to using two different cartridges - one for the drum and one for the toner. The drum and toner are mixed in one cartridge so it's easier to set up and eliminates the need for complicated mixing.
The best feature of this device is that it's a member of the Generation Green campaign and using it not only gives you benefits, but Mother Nature as well. You can reduce power consumption to as low as 3 Watts through the Energy Saver mode. The device is also Energy Star qualified so it's definitely environment-friendly.
Conclusion
There are many Canon all in one printers, but the Canon imageCLASS MF4370DN Laser All-in-One Printer is definitely my favorite. The only catch is that it doesn't run in Mac, but that's no problem for me because I use a Windows operating system. Apart from that, I believe no one will ever be dissatisfied with this model. Therefore can confidently say that I highly recommend this model for anyone out there who needs an all in one laser printer for business or personal use.
