I have always owned HP printers and have been happy with them, but wanted a printer with higher output capacity… at the same time I questioned my need for a color printer. After a few weeks of casual review I decided to go with the Canon MF-445dw. It took a few days to acclimate to the Cannon but I am really happy with it. I make lots of copies, and this thing is 2-3 times faster than my HP and has only misfed twice, and both times the pages were ‘stuck’ together, there is no way they could’ve fed. I’m getting an error message that prints itself out on a piece of paper every so often… I need to chase that down, but I highly recommend this Canon, I think it will be a real workhorse.

I have been very happy with this printer. Being a mac user there is usually at least one feature that doesn't quite work, or work well with a Mac. So far this printer has been hassle-free. Easy to setup and no glitches what so ever. It hasn't cost me an arm and a leg for the cartridges either.

Me gustó mucho el servicio pero no me gustó que me hicieron cargos extras por la diferencia de país y que nadie me haya advertido...

Imprimante très efficace mais pas très facile à configurer

It has 3 years warranty.The cartridge that is included is not some "starter" type. It's full-featured, 3100 pages cartridge. So it's like at least 2 extra cartridges is included in the price if you compare with any of the competitors.It's unbelievably fast. It has duplex multi page scanning - it's when you give it stack of paper - it automatically scans both sides of each page and nicely places it into a PDF file, for example.It's silent in the sleep mode, unlike many HP competitors that have high-pitched noise while in the sleep mode.This printer is too good to be true. In fact, it's so good, that you'll get greedy. You would whine that "if only it could print in color". (and then your life-time quest of finding a perfect printer will be over).When I compared the true black document printed on this printer and on a very good inkjet (with print price per page about 10x) - I didn't know which one is better and at some point I confused the two copies. I couldn't figure out what printer printed what copy.And then... the greed. When you print PDFs, some of the colors are not pure black. Meaning your prints will be somewhat "pixelated". However, it gets perhaps much better if you play with the "quality" settings. It's capable of 1200 dpi, but then it has some modes like "photo" or "publication" or "high-definition text" - you need to play with those.This is in NO WAY "the fault" of the printer!!! You are buying monochrome. This is the nature of it. The toner is black or no black. There is no even gradation of the gray. Meaning that even gray has to be simulated from the black or absence of black.It has to be said that inkjets prints are also pixelated. But perhaps because pure black is also pixelated - you care less about the not pure black ones. Laser printer gives you so much sharpness for the pure blacks that you start noticing pixelation on the not pure black colors.

PRODUCTO EXTRAORDINARIO, SUPERA POR MUCHO LA EXPECTATIVA. LES RECOMIENDO AMPLIAMENTE ESTE PRODUCTO DE EXCELENTE CALIDAD Y EXTRAORDINARIO FUNCIONAMIENTO ADEMAS DE QUE ES PRACTICAMENTE AUTO-CONFIGURABLE.

This printer is probably a little more than I need, but the price was right for me.The built in apps can be helpful, eg scanning something and being able to email it to yourself. The settings were a little tricky, but I’m enjoying this feature.I saw some me the screen being unresponsive. Compared to smart phone, for sure, but it’s easy enough to type in emails. The screen is larger and far more responsive than the 7 year old unit this is replacing.I didn’t know I could print on both sides until I saw the setting show up in the print menu. This is another great feature.

3 YEAR UPDATE: I wish refrigerators and dishwashers were built like this thing . . . All I ever do is change paper, NOTHING has gone wrong, NOTHING, no misfeeds, no jams, print is still clear and consistent . . I am living a charmed life . . .1 YEAR UPDATE: I have used this thing for a year, intermittently, as needed. I've left it off much of the time, to save electricity, and EVERYTIME I try to print, it turns on, tunes in, n prints . . EVERY time. Copies are still as sharp as when I bought it, the wife is no longer afraid when I bring up printers in conversation . . . . I like it more now than when I bought it, mostly because it keeps doing what I bought it for, without my having to think about what to do if it won't . . why aren't phones like this? Why aren't new(ish) kitchen appliances like this?? Someday this'll be like our 22 year old Toyota pickup, starts (n prints) 1st time, every time.I bought it, I called, They said it was an HOUR wait!!!!! . .Finally the nicest lady answered, answered 400 questions from a, by now, thoroughly wound up customer after sitting on the phone for an hour staring at router settings, printer settings, modem settings, WINDOZE setup screens, and wondering why I did not just kill myself now . . . she helped me update the firmware, fiddle with the sleep settings, set the copying up, printer up, the scanning, the email, the windows drivers, the Mopria android drivers . . and after 2 hours and forty minutes with this techy support gift from God, the darn thing works . . repeatedly.My wife went out for coffee with the dog to get away from the histrionics, and came back to a happy camper . . .This printer has more settings than the entire US Army mess hall system . . there is NO WAY any consumer could do this without giving up their day job . . . but Towandia (really, that IS her name) took it all in stride, and politely steered me right, and treated me like a human being . .Documents and photos and the machine itself, actually . . all look pretty good, and it is a quiet machine, you can even control the volume of the dings and dongs it utters; the control panel is kinda fun, if a bit intimidating, but, like I said, the darn thing works . . . its' cost per page for printing is a bit higher because the cartridge containing the ink ALSO contains the image drum, BUT, unless you are printing oodles and oodles, paying 4-6 cents a page isn't that big a deal, because the new laser image drum and ink combo, means a very fast, great image every time . . and no darn inkjet clogging disasters or changes to boot.I LIKE this thing . .I scanned a bunch of nonsense and sent it off to the wife's email, just because I could . . I changed the folder where all scans are kept, just because I could, I even printed an envelope with addresses that looked like I knew how to set up a #10 envelope file . . oh happy day . . .Unbelievably complex, intricate, encyclopedic knowledge required, and support handled all of it with nary a discouraging word, nor stentorian tone. I have my self respect intact . .. and a printer that works.Setup by the average consumer, ill advised, if not psychologically risky . . . .
