Canon LBP5800 Printer Review

The Canon imageCLASS LBP5800 is a color laser printer that is compact enough for an individual, but still powerful enough for a small office of several shared users. Its speeds aren't the most impressive in its class, at a maximum of only 12 pages per minute in black and 10 pages per minute in color, but users can find affordable third-party alternatives for Canon LBP5800 printer toner that will make it fairly inexpensive to operate.

The machine includes automatic duplexing as a standard feature, so users can easily cut their paper costs by enabling it as the default. With a first page out time of 20 seconds, they also won't spend a lot of time waiting for a task to start. The unit also features virtually no warm-up time, so it can be turned off when not in use without slowdowns, saving energy in the process. With a built-in Toner Save mode, users can use less imageCLASS LBP5800 toner over time as well.

The main paper tray is equipped for up to 250 sheets, with the option to add a second tray for an additional 250 sheets as needed. A 100-sheet multipurpose tray is also included, which can easily hold alternative media like envelopes and labels.

Replacement toners are easy to install, and the Canon LBP5800 toner cartridges have fairly large capacities for such a small device. Each of the three color imageCLASS LBP5800 toner cartridges has an average yield of 12,000 pages, while the black supply has an average yield of 13,000 pages. Those looking to lower operating expenses should consider remanufactured Canon LBP5800 toner, as it is generally a fraction of the cost of OEM supplies.

For buyers who don't mind sacrificing a bit when it comes to speed, the Canon LBP5800 has a lot to offer. Its compact design and low purchase price are impressive, and the low cost of supplies will keep it affordable well into the future.
