Canon MP730 Printer Review

Does your office have a need for a multifunction inkjet printer but not a lot of available space? Look no further than the Canon SmartBase MP730. It can print, scan, copy, and fax, but still manages to be very compact in its design. Print speeds are up to 22 pages per minute in monochrome, and up to 14 pages per minute in color, so performance will be quite fast. The low price of Canon MP730 ink will help keep printer ink costs down.

The major advantage of the MP730 is really the variety of features available in such a small design. The machine's dimensions are 13.4 inches by 17.3 inches by 22.8, so it should fit quite easily into most small office spaces. It also only weighs 28.2 pounds, so a single user should have no trouble getting it out of the box and setting it up without assistance. The unit has a 35-sheet automatic document feeder for scanning, copying, and faxing multiple pages at once very quickly.

The high cost of printer ink is often the major drawback of an inkjet model, but Canon MP730 ink cartridges are actually very affordable. SmartBase SmartBase ink cartridges have capacities of over 420 pages for color and 750 pages for black, which keeps the cost per page down. Users can save more by using compatible SmartBase MP730 ink from a reputable third-party seller.

In their review of the MP730, CNET praised its ease-of-use and the inclusion of an ADF and memory card readers. They found its upfront price to be high, however, and found it to be missing some fax and copy features that are common in other models. They found the low running costs of Canon MP730 ink to be impressive as well.

Overall, the Canon MP730 has a great mix of basic features and convenient extras like memory card readers. These extras, in addition to core functions, can make it a real time-saver for users.
