Canon MF5960dn Printer Review

In a world full of advancing technology and ever-changing standards for electronic devices, specifically office equipment, Canon has not only kept up, but has been an innovative company. As is the case for the Canon MF5960dn, which is a laser machine that can handle the printing, copying, scanning and faxing needs of an office, and do so consistently and reliably for a long time. The MF5960dn was manufactured to endure years of daily tasks, though it does not offer color printing, which may be a limiting factor for certain companies.

Depending on the volume of a particular office, users have the option of using standard or high-capacity Canon MF5960dn toner cartridges. The standard printer toner will produce up to 2,300 pages before expiring while the high-capacity toners can generate up to 6,400 prints each. If the budget is a concern, compatible Canon MF5960dn toner cartridges are available for purchase from third party vendors. Though the price will be considerably less than the brand-name options, compatible Canon MF5960dn toner can produce the same maximum resolution of 1200x600 dpi and yield just as many pages.

Black-and-white and color documents can be scanned by the MF5960dn with an interpolated resolution of 9600 dpi and a 24-bit color depth that ensure accurate detail. Before printing a duplicate, users can resize the image from 25% to 400% the original size. The fax transmission speed is 33.6 Kbps and Super G3 capable, meaning faxes will process in less than 5 seconds.

This laser unit can be connected to a computer using any operating system through a USB or ethernet port. Networking and duplexing are built-in functions and a special mode will conserve the amount of Canon MF5960dn toner used for each print. As many as 35 pages can be printed each minute and the 256 MB memory allows for hefty documents to be printed without interruption.
