Canon is my first choice these days

As a consultant required to recommend, install and maintain printers on regular basis I have abandoned the HP products and now use Canon and Lexmark's mostly with a few Epson's by customer request. The MF4690 is a quality unit, with full featured software and intuitive user interface. I am 95%...

Pretty good AIO printer with a few quirks

This printer is pretty good general AIO. There are a few quirks that I encountered during my use that are probably specific to my printer/myself. The scanner is moderate resolution, so photos tended have some banding. Adequate for computer use, but not great for re-printing. The device has...

Unreliable Fax Reception

I need a reliable fax/copier that can copy/send legal-size as well as 8.5 * 11 pages. I have an excellent Fujitsu scanner and do not need a backup. Since replacing an old HP multifunction two months ago with the Canon MF4690, I have had nothing but trouble receiving faxes on my dedicated line,...

Great Printer

I've had this unit a couple of months now and I must say I'm quite happy with it. It was the top rated laser All-in-One in the May 08 issue of Consumer Reports. I've bought only HP printers in the past, but my last HP was so bad (HP LaserJet G55 All-in-One) that I finally decided to go to...

Pay more to get this one with flash drive access if you're not good at networking

I'm a light user with average- to above-average amateur computer skills and have had this for a couple of months. I can't speak to reliability but it prints crisply and scans well. I have used it with a PC and a Mac and can say that it will print directly via a USB cable after installing the...

Excellent machine

I've had this for several weeks, and it has near-flawless performance. I use it for network scans and printing mostly. The scanning is so simple that even young kids can do it. Just push a couple buttons on the unit and your PDF file shows up in a network folder. The documentation has a minor...

Unreliable machine...do not buy

Good Multifunction - not for Mac

I use Macs and PCs at home, as was able to use the printer functions on my Mac over the home network, but only while I was running OS 10.4. After upgrading to OS 10.5, I haven't been able to reach this printer with my Macs. It has worked flawlessly with our PCs from day one. I especially like...

Mixed bag on this one

As a printer and stand alone fax this machine is fine. I however, want to use the send to e-mail function the same way my $100 Brother MFC does. I cannot get it to work. I have called Canon several times and they have told me 1. it cannot work unless I have a mail server on my network or 2....
