Rating: - great machine
This is my first laser printer for the home office. I have had a string of inkjet printers that mostly quit or worked poorly after a year.
This is a fairly compact for a Multi-function machine.
I have only used it a few times but the copy, print and fax functions work great. The cost is very reasonable. I like that it is a Canon, as they make great digital cameras.

Although I have just purchased the unit, I am happy with the performance so far. No problems with install. The printer has a very quick warm-up time from power save and has handled envelopes well. The only negative is the paper tray size (not a full ream) and loading (a little cumbersome to load). We'll see if it lasts longer than my Dell MFC that died about 1 week after the warranty ran out.

Used this printer for a grand total of 2.5 business days (light duty) before it crapped out with the error code e225. Called customer support and waited on hold for quite a while only to be told that the unit can't be fixed without a technician for that error code. Options were to have a replacement mailed and return my unit, or take it into a repair center.
Seriously, does anybody actually check these things before they go out the door? I know I'm working with a small sample size (1), but I can't help wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem.
For what it's worth, the machine worked great for the 5 print/copy/scans we did before it broke, but that would leave me with a $50 per use cost on the first machine and I don't think that's very attractive to most business users.
Rating: - Excellent multi-function printer
I really needed a versatile printer/scanner and bought this unit, based on the positive reviews. Although I don't use the fax portion (no need), I am delighted with the printer/copier/scanner functions. The supporting documentation is substantial, so you have plenty of guidance for any questions. The drivers installed easily into my Windows XP PC, and best of all is the Canon Toolbox software which lets me scan files to JPEG, or PDF, or even do an OCR conversion using the included Scansoft software. It also has a very small desk footprint. Overall, I'm very pleased with the unit.
