Canon L350 Toner Cartridges

Canon L350 Printer Review

The Canon L350 is a fax machine and monochrome laser printer designed for the home or small office. It offers fast transmission speeds and a great faxing feature set, as well as decent printing and copying abilities.

While all-in-one machines are increasingly popular in the marketplace, there is still a need for a dedicated fax machine. Many users wish to have a fax machine that can be always on, while other machines can be turned off when not in use. The Canon Fax L350 is not only a very robust fax machine, but also has the ability to print and copy, though it won't replace a more full-featured printer or copier.

The Canon Fax L350 has a very good array of fax features, such as delayed transmission, up to 133 locations of speed dial memory, and up to 160 pages of memory for storing incoming faxes when the machine is out of paper. Faxing transmission speeds are also fast, at up to 33.6 kbps.

Copying is perhaps the Canon L350's weakest function, but is still good enough for the occasional copying task. The biggest limitation for copying is the lack of a flatbed scanner. This means users cannot copy books or bound media.

The Canon L350 toner cartridge has a capacity of 2,700 pages. Users can save money by using third-party compatible printer cartridges instead of the more expensive OEM Canon L350 toner cartridges. This will result in a lower cost per page that saves money over the lifetime of the machine.

Printing is quite good, as the Canon L350 has a 600 dpi printing engine for sharper prints and faxes. Text is very sharp and detailed, though graphics quality is below average, especially compared to a laser printer. Slow print speeds are the only downside, at around 6 pages per minute.

Overall, the Canon L350 is a robust and well-designed fax machine that also has the bonus of printing and copying abilities. Users who need a dedicated fax and only the occasional print or copy task should be very satisfied with the Canon L350.
