Canon - imageCLASS MF644Cdw Wireless Color All-In-One Laser Printer - White

Print Quality (4.5 out of 5): Great print quality even with small font size. Produces good color or grey scale photos, and good presentation printouts. Print speed is as specified (around 22 ppm for black), but when I tried to print a large report with a couple of hundred pages, the device struggled a lot to finish the job. After every 30/40 pages the machine takes rest for 2-4 minutes to cool down. This is not a heavy-duty printer, and it is for home use only. Print Cost (4.5 out of 5): Similar models of Brother printer costs less in printing, but this canon device is not bad. The standard black toner costs around 4c per page while the high yield toner can cost less than 2.5c per page in eco mode. The standard black toner that came with the printer was able to print 1700+ pages, and a new high yield toner cartridge (Canon 054h XL black) that I purchased later was able to print 3500+ pages in eco mode. It is annoying that the printer shows low ink warning once ink level gets below 50%, and with this warning I was able to print around 1500 more pages full of text in eco mode. The warning simply does not make any sense. So, forget about the warning and keep printing. Scan (3 out of 5): With max resolution of 600X600, the scan quality is not impressive- both with the flat-bed scanner or with the auto document feeder (ADF). I was able to set the resolution to 1200X600 from the remote manager, but scan quality did not improve much. Scanned fonts come out dull and not sharp. Good thing- the auto feeder can hold 50 sheets (letter or legal) and can scan both sides in a single pass with a good speed. It is okay for day to day scanning, but for sensitive official documents I still prefer some scanner app installed on my android phone. Unlike these apps, the scanning software included with this Canon printer does not have any post-processing intelligence. Lastly, the flat-bed scanner portion is unnecessarily 3 inches thick (compared to HP MFP M428fwd or M283fdw)- making the device look large on my desk. Copy (5 out of 5): Fast and crisp print, both from flat-bed scanner or from ADF. ADF can print both sides in single pass pretty fast. ID card copying is also good. Email, Fax (4 out of 5): It’s a relief that hard copies can directly go into your email directly from the printer. But the setup process is not easy, and may require an expert hand. I haven’t tried fax. Setup and Connectivity (4 out of 5): Software and Wi-Fi setup are straight forward. Printer quickly wakes up from sleep once command is sent to printer through Wi-Fi. The remote manager is a great help, with which you can use your web browser from your computer to remotely monitor ink levels, see usage logs (for print, scan, mail or fax), and control all different settings without touching the printer itself. That’s something cool! Touch Display (3 out of 5): LCD touch screen is not sensitive, most of the time I have to touch twice or press hard for the same action, the user interface on the LCD screen is not well-organized, and some of the very common settings are not readily available. However, you can customize some of it from remote manager. Overall (4 out of 5): With less than 300$ budget, if you are looking for professional quality printing in black, decent color print, Wi-Fi and email connectivity, and average scan quality- everything of office in a single home device, you should get this. I am happy with the purchase.

The Canon MF644Cdw Wireless Color All-In-One Laser Printer has a lot of positives, but there are two negatives: 1) If there is a way to scan two-sided originals into one pdf, I have not been able to figure it out. It does allow for two-sided to either two-sided or one-sided copying, so that makes it all the stranger. 2) It is very difficult to set up the scanner at the outset. Once everything is working, the unit is a pleasure. The copies are produced quickly and are excellent. The scanner is quick, as long as all originals are printed only on one side. At $351.99, including tax and free delivery, it was a good buy, and it comes with a three-year parts warranty from the manufacturer. Other than the two-sided scan issue, I'm very pleased so far.

I was tired of messing with the printer every time I needed to print something. We don't use the printer very often, but when I do, I need it to work. We have been through about 4 ink jet printers over the years and many $$ on cartridges. Every time I would print, I would have to re-print because the heads needed cleaned or something else was wrong. So far with this Laser, it has not had any issues. With the kids in school, I know in the coming years they will be using it more and more. I wanted something that could copy and scan. This seems to be a great home solution.

I haven't had this very long, but it was fairly easy to get going. I did have to download the latest driver from the Canon website before my computer would detect it. Nothing to assemble, just unpack and plug in. The paper tray will extend for legal paper if needed and will accommodate other sizes like envelopes. The front auxiliary slot works well too. Slide in a sheet of whatever or an envelope and you don't need to tell the printer to pull from that spot. it just does it. Have printed a couple of dozen sheets and the toners still say 100%. Be aware that they come with starter cartridges that i was told are about half the capacity of replacements. Did some research on the price of toner, and Canon's are way cheaper than HP. The disc has scanner software and an ink status utility. The driver I had to download on Win7 anyway. The only thing I haven't done at this point is print a photo. I have it plugged directly into my desktop. Also using wireless for the other computers in the house and printing from our iPhones. Had HP's almost all of my life and finally had enough. So far very happy. Also purchased the 4 year, cover pretty much everything, geek squad warranty.

I love the printer. It is a bit heavy and was awkward for a senior to lift. The color is more natural and accurate than my HP laser jet pro MFP M377dw and it scans on both sides of the sheet with one pass.

Received on time. Quite a heavy and awkward box, but then the printer is bigger than I expected. Easy setup. Great OOB experience. Color quality and print quality are very good. Speed is okay to good. Cost of toner cartridges is steep (buying the set is half of what I paid for the printer itself).

Could be faster after you hit the print button And Could be a little quieter, but overall it is a good printer

Needed to replace our inkjet printer. Not having to print often lead to clogged print heads and wasting ink doing nozzle checks and realigning. Due to the affordable prices of laser printers decided to get the Canon imageClass. Set up was easy when following instructions. Downloaded the Canon Business Print app for greater control and more printing options when printing from an iPad. App works well when scanning documents to store in iCloud. Finally able to scan and shred hard copies of our documents on file. The document feeder works great and is worth the extra money. Also must mention, though I haven’t done extensive tests, initially print quality appears to be great. Says a lot coming from a picky graphic designer. A few minor issues: sometimes takes a couple tries to get iPad to connect to printer when in sleep mode. Prints a little slower than expected but still way faster than inkjet. Seems to handle heavy weight paper and labels okay. Overall very happy with our purchase. If you’re on the fence, I would suggest you get it.
