Canon MF5880dn Printer Review

If a monochrome multifunction laser printer is needed for a midlevel office, the Canon imageCLASS MF5880dn is well worth considering. With quick speeds of up to 30 pages per minute, most offices will have no complaints, and its first page takes only 6 seconds to be produced. When printing with Canon MF5880dn toner, resolutions as high as 1200x600 dpi can be created. These resolutions will leave each text and graphics documents looking high quality and professional.

The one imageCLASS MF5880dn toner cartridge used inside is filled with high quality black printer toner. The black Canon MF5880dn toner will last 6,400 pages before it needs replaced. This should last most users quite awhile, but the cost per page is a little pricey, compared to the competition. The maximum duty cycle for the machine is 15,000 pages, so those who use the MF5880dn to its maximum capacity will find themselves replacing toners two to three times a month.

Plain paper, recycled paper, bond paper, thick paper, transparencies, index cards, postcards and envelopes can all be printed on using the Canon MF5880dn toner cartridges. Sizes like legal, executive, letter, A4, A5 and B5 are all supported. The unit also comes with the ability to duplex and print posters or booklets.

The copier has the ability to reach resolutions of 600x600 dpi using imageCLASS MF5880dn toner, and it can reduce and enlarge documents from 50%-200% of their original size. The scanner can reach interpolated resolutions of 9600x9600 dpi. The fax machine may be the most impressive feature though, with an impressive modem speed of 33.6 Kbps, which will send and receive faxes in less than 6 seconds. Up to 20 one-touch speed dials and 180 coded dials can be saved onto the machine. Overall, the high quality printer toner, multiple functions and features and low maintenance make the MF5880dn a good addition to any office.
