Canon C3480i Printer Review

Offices are always looking for the next best thing when it comes to multiple functions. Some machines offer a lot of features, while some offer minimal. The Canon imageRUNNER C3480i is a color laser multifunction unit that was built with midsized offices in mind. It comes with 1 GB of memory, and the hard drive can hold up to 80 GB. This machine can scan, copy and fax documents with excellent quality at fast speeds. Mac, Windows and Citrix operating systems are all supported, and connection via USB and ethernet are both offered. Maintaining this printer is relatively inexpensive thanks to the affordable Canon C3480i toner.

In order to use the machine, four Canon C3480i toner cartridges are needed. These imageRUNNER C3480i toner cartridges include black, cyan, yellow and magenta printer toner. The color toners yield 14,000 pages each, while the black yields 26,000 pages. Not only will these give you a lot of pages before replacement will be needed, but these will give you a low cost per page too. This means they are affordable in the long run.

The printer, scanner and copier alike all max out at resolutions of 600x600 dpi. Though many printers on the market will offer higher resolutions, if printing mostly text documents, this will be more than enough. When printing or copying using color Canon C3480 toner, up to 30 pages per minute can be printed. For black-and-white printing, speeds of 34 pages per minute can be printed. The first page out time using color and black-and-white imageRUNNER C3480i toner is 8.9 seconds and 5.9 seconds per page. These speeds are fast for a laser printer, and they will definitely keep up with the needs of your office. It can also copy up to 999 from an original document.
