Canon C5255 Printer Review

Large, multifunction color laser printers provide a lot of functionality, but are often difficult to use. The Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5255 aims to change this with a simple, intuitive design that makes it simple to use and understand, and even provides cloud and mobile support to streamline the office workflow. Print speeds are up to 55 pages per minute in black and 51 pages per minute in color, and prices for Canon ADVANCE C5255 printer toner are very reasonable.

The C5255 can print, scan, copy, and has the option for faxing, if needed. The device is fairly large, but does take up a smaller footprint than some of its competitors. It requires an installation space of 33.5x28.1 inches in its standard configuration. Adding more paper capacity to its initial 1,200 pages, or adding finishing options like stapling and folding, will expand its frame and require a bit more space, however.

The control panel of the C5255 seems to have been designed for simplicity. It features a Quick Menu mode that highlights the most important functions but strips away unnecessary distractions. For more advanced users, they can choose a more complex menu system, but can also save common workflows for later access, eliminating the need to dig through menus each time. Tutorials and instructions are also built into the system if users run into trouble.

The toners are accessed from a panel right below the output tray, and the tubular shape and color coding of the Canon C5255 toner cartridges makes them easy to identify and insert them correctly. Each of the imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5255 toner cartridges come with high page yields, with each color providing up to 38,000 pages, and the black supply providing up to 44,000 pages. Compatible imageRUNNER ADVANCE C5255 toner offers a cost-saving alternative to the more expensive OEM versions.

Buyers may find the price tag of the C5255 a bit high, but its solid design and impressive feature set make it a good value. Users will love its intuitive control panel, and the low cost per page of Canon C5255 toner makes it affordable over the long term.
