Customer Ratings & Reviews

Our new Canon printer has proved itself to be quiet fast and prints very nicely. It handles each job very professionally and I'm very happy with the quality of its operations.

This all-in-one laser printer has been an absolute game-changer for my home office! Setup was fast and painless, connecting wirelessly to all my devices in just minutes. It produces crisp, vibrant color prints and sharp black-and-white documents with impressive speed — perfect for everything from everyday pages to detailed graphics. The touchscreen interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, and I love the built-in scanning and copying features. Whether you’re printing reports, homework, or photos, this machine delivers professional­-quality results every time. Highly recommend for small business or personal use!

The Canon class MF654 CDW printer is the latest edition of color laser printers in canons exceptional history of building high quality printing devices. After unpacking and removing the printer, which was very securely held in place with Styrofoam tape and covered in plastic bags. I followed the instructions in the user manual to prepare and set up this new printer. It's important to take the time to read and reference the detailed user guide provided. Following the setup guide is your best bet unless you've already set one of these up before. You'll want to know how to prepare your networking environment and install the latest drivers on your computer. And depending on your usage there are additional settings you'll need to configure, for example for scanning documents and faxing documents. A nice feature if you have more than one of these printers to set up is that you can import the data registered on another of the same models directly into other printers on the network which will save you valuable time. This canon printer is highly network capable, for wired and wireless connections, perfect for any small business or Soho. Configuration can be done both at the printer directly, or in combination with a remote connection using the provided remote user interface from Canon. As with any networked device, particularly for a small business where data security is imperative, you will want to take steps to prevent unauthorized use or hacking of your data. In the past printers were a source of entry to gain access to a network, or to the built-in data storage device. Canon has taken extensive measures to ensure the integrity and security of your data that is on the device and access through your network connection. Take the time to review the user guide provided that explains how to secure your configuration. It's an important first step, and Canon has done a great job in providing you with information on how to do that. When the printer was turned on for the first time, they set up a guide greeted me to assist in setting up the initial configurations. These are high level configurations to get you going, afterwards you'll dig in deeper to set up more detailed specific configurations for your environment. During the initial setup you'll choose your language and country, you'll set up the date and time, although this will also be maintained by a network connection to keep all devices in sync, initially you can set it up here in UTC. Going on with the setup you'll configure initial security settings you'll do a color configuration and adjustment, setting up the network connection and setting up a automatic toner replacement service so that you have plenty of notification before running out of toner. There's also a presentation of the library of applications built into or available for the Canon printer. There is quite a few apps, it's always good for the first time to review them and know what they do. Quick access to information and configuration settings can be done using the operation handle LCD which is on the front of the printer. Canon provides a warning in its manual to be careful when handling the touch panel display as it is possible to damage it if handled too harshly. I can attest to this not on this printer, but another one, not a Canon, that I press too hard and killed the LCD. Fortunately, that printer also has a remote user interface and that's the only reason I can still use it without having to replace the broken panel which would not make good financial sense anyhow. All your settings are accessible through the panel; however, the remote UI provides you with more information and ease of accessibility in my opinion to the features and functions. The connectivity of the Canon printer is very robust with several ways of accessing and using the printer's many functions. If the printer is being installed on a corporate network, there are things to consider so far as sharing and access to privileges to be set. If you are uncertain of how to do these things, you may be best to request help from your IT department, or as I have found a call to the Geek Squad is also available to sort out any questions. If the printer is meant just for simple home use or for a home office and there isn't a concern for the risk of information being hacked and stolen, then it's very simple to set up wireless or wired connections. The simplest form of wireless configuration is to use the WPS method, you'll want to have access to your wireless router to make this happen quickly. The Canon printer is fully capable of handling all the current encryption technologies to protect your connection. It is IP4 and IP6 compliant, you can set static IP addresses or use DHCP. There is a full plethora of networking settings that gives you full control if you want it. From my computer I use the remote UI application to set up, configure, monitor and make ongoing tweaks to the printer. The applications dashboard provides you with quick and easy access to the printer's capabilities and functions. I find it to be a very useful and integral part of this printer's solution. I should mention again that this printer can be used very quickly with minimal setup time or knowledge if you simply follow the quick-start instructions. On the other hand, it is fully capable of handling complex printing situations and security settings on a network of devices. Depending on your scenario and situation you may not need much knowledge to set up the printer, or for complex settings you may need assistance from a knowledgeable computer IT person as this would entail network provisioning, network security, network sharing, setting up LDAP, setting up WINS, FTP, configuring the SMB, monitoring and controlling the printer using the simple networking management protocol by using a MIB etc. In the user manual and on the Canon support website page you will find information on how to utilize a print server service when using this laser printer. The purpose of a printer service is to reduce the load of print jobs from your computer to a configured computer on the network setup as a print server. Not necessary for small environments, but available for large networks. I didn't need this capability, but it's nice to know it's there and at this price point it's kind of incredible that it's offered and available for use that even a small business can afford and maintain... Surprisingly there is still a need for faxing documents, although that is slowly dying out there are still some situations where it is needed. I was able to use an existing landline to try out this feature. You can both receive and transmit faxes. I tried scanning several pages of documents containing both text and graphics to an online resource that accepts incoming fax protocol. The quality of the faxes was outstanding, and better than any quality facts you would have gotten in the 1980s! Lol! Anyhow the feature is there if you need it and want it. The printer provides two methods of inserting paper stock, it can be done automatically using the paper drawer or on the side of the machine is a manual feed slot. Mostly I use the automatic method, but I can see using the manual feed for specialty papers. But use your good judgment when inserting different types of paper as it could cause a jam. I found it funny that in the user guide Canon warns again certain types of paper, one of which is stated to be onion skin or thin paper. I hadn't heard of this term used before... As with any printing device when feeding it paper just use common sense, but I suppose the lawyers out there would want to be very specific and so know that you shouldn't put some things through the input slot. In addition to the weight of the paper you can adjust to the specific size of the paper, such as legal for A4, and so on. You can also adjust the input rails to handle such things as envelopes for instance. If the printer is set up and configured and plugged in and powered up it becomes available for use using any of its ingress access ports. But if the printer is not used for a long period of time, such as overnight or over weekends you can configure it to go into a power saving mode, or you can manually put it into sleep mode by a simple push of the button on the printer or through the remote UI. This should save electricity plus extend the life of the printer itself. I spent a good amount of My time with the Canon printer both copying documents as well as printing electronic material. From the copying perspective it's very straightforward and easy to use and doesn't require much understanding to create a copy if you're in front of the printer physically. The control panel provides all the functionality from simple to detailed as to the type of copy you'd like to make. It'll even do two-sided documents automatically without manual intervention. It'll reproduce exact copies of documents, or it can resize them bigger or smaller. It will handle black and white as well as color documents and I found the quality of the output to be the best I've seen in this class of printers. Copies were scanned and printed very quickly almost to the level of a business class printer costing three or four times the amount. It even does collating. Very impressive!

Have had this printer for over a year now and has performed well for all uses. Easy to set up and reliable

I've been using this laser printer for a long time, and it's been excellent. Setup was fast - I had it connected to Wi-Fi and printing from my phone within minutes. Quality is perfect. I'd definitely recommend it!

This Canon imageCLASS MF654Cdw Wireless Color All-In-One Laser Printer was very simple to setup for use as a stand alone on the network, connecting wirelessly to a computer, and using with smart phones and tablets. The setup process is very easy to follow and there were no snags or issues at all. The printer is full of great features. It already has installed all four toner cartridges, one in black, one in magenta, one in yellow and one in cyan. It has a software CD with it, but you can get the latest versions online at the Canon website. The full color large touchscreen display responds quickly and had no issues. It’s adjustable too, so depending on where you install your printer, you can move the display up or down. It has an auto feeder on it for scanning or copying more than one page at a time. It also has a flatbed scanner too. The paper drawer is big and holds more than enough paper. The printer comes with a piece that goes on the drawer if you use legal sized paper, so it doesn’t get dust on it. It also has a slot with measurements to manually feed paper or an envelope. The duplex feature is awesome, as it prints on both sides of the paper. There are also options in the settings when you go to print that will allow you to print a book style page, or multiple pages on a single sheet of paper. You can print to email too. The print quality is fantastic. I printed flyers, checks, brochures, a picture (it’s not a photo printer), a newsletter, and a fake advertisement, to see how it would print. I thought it did an amazing job, even on the picture. The print speed is really good too, even in color. The printer weighs about 45 pounds, give it take a few pounds. It has a fairly small footprint for all that it does. It would go nicely on a printer stand, but I wouldn’t put it on a desktop beside my computer monitor.

The printer works very well and fast. Good quality but gave only 3 stars because it's a bit noisy and driver setup a bit challenging.

This printer works very well. It prints good quality and is fast. The only thing is it is very loud since I had someone on the phone who could hear the printer in the background.

Easy to set up. Offers scanning to cloud options right on the device web interface. I just wish it could scan double sided from the doc feeder, that option cost a bit more though

Very nice printer I would highly recommend. The colored prints are very clear and sharp. It scans and copies. It was fairly easy to set up and I am very happy with this printer.

This was a replacement for a 15 year old canon image class laser. Love the easy of setup the speed of printing and double sided printing. The built in scanner copier has come in very handy also.

This is a great printer at a great price. This replaced an inkjet printer and I couldn’t be happier to be done with clogged print heads and buying ink every couple of months. So far this Canon color laser printer has performed flawlessly. Setup was a breeze (I’m using Apple operating software) and have had no connectivity problems. I do not consider it to be noisy as has been mentioned on other reviews. Very happy with this purchase.

This printer is definitely very functionable. It was easy for me to set up. It is heavy, so please have someone help you lift to destination. I like the feature of it being wireless and also being able to connect to it with a USB cord if needed I also like that you can scan to your computer. I had to call Cannon to help get me set up with that feature because I couldn't do it by myself overall the color quality is great. I am a real estate broker so I use it to print a lot of of my listings and other promotional advertisement. The print time is faster than I expected overall a very good midgrade, laser printer for the price that I paid. Thank you

Overall, from General Setup to daily usage the Printer is great. Easy accessible internal web address for setting changes and modifications. Would definitely recommend

Love the new printer! Easy to operate and prints labels very well.

I've been using this printer non stop for 3-months now and it's been great! I own a Mac computer and this printer has all the printer drivers for my Mac unlike the HP printer that I purchased first. Since the HP printer did not have printer drivers for my computer the colors were printing way off. This Canon is fast, the print quality is excellent and the colors are pretty accurate! After a frustrating experience with the HP I'm very happy with this Canon printer and would recommend to Mac users and Graphic Designers.

Excellent laser printer , good quality, easy to use and it is fast . I love it.

Very happy with our Canon laser printer so far (only a couple of months in). Got a great price on sale and setup was a breeze. Yes, it is big and bulky, but the footprint is not much larger than the inkjet printer it replaced and the print quality is noticeably superior.

The Canon imageCLASS MF654Cdw Wireless Color All-In-One Laser Printer works really well! The print quality is sharp, and the colors are vibrant. It connects easily to Wi-Fi and prints quickly without much noise. Scanning and copying are smooth and convenient too. The touchscreen is easy to use, though setup took a little longer than expected — that’s the only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5. Overall, a great printer for home or office use.

Since I may print 120 pages and then nothing for two weeks my inkjet print heads were constantly plugging up and the time lost and wasted ink were killing me. I always thought color lasers were out of my price range but when I needed to replace four $125 ink cartridges that would take about half the ink just to get pages without missing lines I decided to do it. One of my coworkers has this same series printer he and his partner use for home business and he recommended it. I did my own research and it looked like what I needed. It is a little bigger than my old all in one inkjet but that's not a problem. No problems installing it or connecting to the network. have gone through about a ream of paper and printed several envelopes without any problems at all. Very good print quality and no problem with print speed. Android phone app is one of those things I never thought I'd use but I was wrong, nice to be able to print without booting up a computer. Click print and I know the print job will be waiting and not full of blank lines.
