Canon 4251 Printer Review

The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4251 multifunction laser printer offers a bit more speed than competing models, at up to 51 pages per minute. It also has a large selection of upgrade options to make it very customizable, and the low cost of Canon 4251 printer toner supplies really puts it over the top.

The 4251 starts with the basic printing, scanning, and copying features buyers will expect, with faxing available as an option. Users who spend a bit of time with its excellent digital scanning features, however, will probably start to prefer to email their documents rather than fax. This also has the benefit of saving imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4251 toner.

With networking integrated into almost every function, it is easy to share the unit among multiple users in a busy office. It also supports mobile printing, integrating easily with smartphones and tablets.

The input paper capacity starts at an impressive 1,180 sheets, which should suffice for even a very busy small office. Upgrades are available to bump it up to a maximum of 4,980 sheets, however, so even a very large office won't have to deal with constantly replenishing the paper supply.

Replenishing toners won't be a common occurrence either, as each Canon 4251 toner cartridge is rated for up to 34,200 pages. The simple, cylindrical design of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4251 toner cartridge also makes it easy to store and to install. Combine all of this with a very low cost for Canon 4251 toner, and you have a very cost-effective machine.

The 4251 strikes a nice middle ground between affordability and excellent features. Its fast speeds and high-quality output leave little to complain about, and it won't cost an arm and a leg to operate. All things considered, it is a great value for a medium or large office environment.
