imageCLASS MF455dw - Monochrome Duplex, Wireless All-in-One Laser Printer with Scanner, Copier and Fax, Auto Document Feeder, Mobile Ready, 3 Year Warranty, 40 PPM, White

This information is first impressions after unpacking and installing it to my network and computers. It is fairly heavy so getting it out of the box can be interesting if your back has problems. Once I got it into the computer room and removed the plastic, I noticed Canon packaging loves orange tape. After removing all of the tape and small pieces of foam, I got it placed on the table. I did actually read the instructions, but really didn't need to. I used the wired network, so I plugged in the power and network cable and turned on the power. I just answered the questions on the screen and it hooked up to my network. Next was the print driver and scanner driver download. Canon's site is a little difficult, but the drivers are easy to find. After download and installing the drivers with crossed fingers, in Windows10, it worked perfectly. Printing is very quick and very clear. The display is bright amd clear and different functions are easy to find. I am very pleased with the install and ease of use. I will update after further use.

Normally I have to trash an inkjet printer about every 2-3 years. Plus the cost of ink is crazy. So I wanted to move up to a laser printer and watched for the Canon to go on sale. The price of other comparable printer were cheaper, but the 3 year warranty for me made the difference. Only 2 weeks old, but no real issues and I'm very happy with the print quality. For home use, the toner may out live me. Slightly negative issues.... 1.) The firmware failed to upgrade (communications error) and the instructions on Canon's website sux at best. I ended up figuring out how to do it manually and got the printed updated. Ethernet connected computer and printer required to do it manually. 2.) It seems you are unable to wake up the printer remotely. I was trying to add it to another computer and had to go and hit the control panel on the printer to wake it up to complete the task. Tons of options and apps available. Printing from my phone also works fine. Buy it.....

Working great

So this is my return back to Canon. I had a wireless laser Canon for about a year before it stopped printing. Which I wasn't happy about considering the price. It wasn't just some cheap inkjet printer. I have high expectations. So I changed over to Brother. Well it was only a week before that one went back to where it wasn't printing. Now here I am back to Canon. Was easy setup for what I have setup so far on it. It has a lot of options. Prints when I want even in sleep mode. Found it pretty cool I can put something on the ADF and control it from my phone and receive the scan on my phone. That's also with the app Canon Business. Not really a fan of it being white, would be much better in black. But it's a small sacrifice for a printer that will actually work. So we'll see how it goes. Hoping it'll last at least a few years. Will update if any problems arise. ****update When using the wireless function it no longer comes out of sleep. You have to manually wake it. Very disappointing. My new rating reflects it. ****Final Update It now won't print from my phone and that's the main reason I use it. So it's practically useless!

Solid multi-function printer. Good double-sided scans and copies.

First off, if you do not need to FAX over a phone line, this is NOT the printer for you. The MF452 is the same as (and less expensive than) the MF455 except for the FAX capability, and the MF451 is the same as the MF452 except it does not have "one pass duplex scan" capability which you can do without unless you do a lot of two-sided scanning. UPDATE: But there is an advantage to the MF455, viz. its 3-year warranty an 40 ppm speed versus a 1-year warranty and 34 ppm speed for the other two. As for the printer/scanner hardware, it seems to be of high quality, and the paper handling mechanism works well, which is, after all, one of the main characteristics you need in any printer. The other important characteristic is the toner cost per page. At today's prices on Amazon this unit costs about 3.5 cents/page for the standard (3,100 pages) 057 toner cartridge, and 1.83 cents/page for the 057H high capacity (10,000 pages) toner cartridge. These are good numbers, but note that after buying a couple of cartridges you have spent more on toner than you spent to buy the printer. It's obvious where Canon makes its money. So why have I given it 4 stars (maybe it should have been 3) instead of 5? It's because of the difficulty of setting up the various print/scan functions, and the poor performance of the vaunted touch screen controller. UPDATE: The next paragraph explains the screen problem. I spent half an hour on the phone with Canon Support, and they concluded (after updating the printer firmware) that indeed my screen was defective. My options were to have Canon replace the printer with a refurbished one under the Canon warranty, or return the printer to Amazon before the 30-day window expired and then order a new replacement. I opted for the latter and now have a new printer with a fully functioning screen. First the touch screen: The phone manufacturers have set a high bar when it comes to touch screens, and this one doesn't measure up. My biggest complaint is that the text for various screen options does not align with the corresponding sensitive screen area. You must very carefully touch at the very top of the text you wish to select. As a result you will often accidentally choose the entry below the one you want. When that happens you must go back to the home screen and start over. This can be frustrating and time consuming. My second complaint is that on many screens there is a "return" symbol in the upper left corner. That would be great if it worked, because you frequently need to go back to select the previously desired option. But it almost never works. It is simply inert. That's why you have to go back to the home screen. My next complaint is the difficulty of setting up and configuring the various features. I have read that setup is easy with this unit, but that has not been my experience. I am using this printer with a fairly old iMac running macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra, but I don't think that is the problem. There should be clear instructions on how to set up the printer using either a wired or wireless LAN so that printing and scanning can be initiated from either the computer or the printer control panel. After two days I still have not been able to use the control panel to initiate a scan to be emailed to a selected recipient due to various "registration" issues. The online documentation is voluminous, but it does not always agree with the display on the control panel. I assume that eventually all of this will be sorted out, but in the meantime I am frustrated and disappointed by these problems.

fast printing toner last forever!! a ++++++

La impresora trabaja super rapido, la verdad de mi impresora anterior otra canon MF6545, estoy contento, salvo que tanto aqui en amazon como en la pagina del fabricante la informacion es incorrecta, NO ESCANEA LEGAL, no por lo menos desde la cama de cristal ya que es tamaño carta/A4, asi que si quieres escanear oficio o legal, sera por el alimentador, pero sabemos bien que muchas veces lo que queremos escanear o copiar no cabe ahi o puede pasar por ahi, asi que FALLO enorme, me la voy a quedar pero me voy a tener que quedar mi vieja impresora para escanear lo que sea en oficio, la otra la seguiria usando y no hubiera renovado pero la otra ya por mas que le han tratado de arreglar imprime con fallos, ni hablar, es muy buena impresora pero si necesitas imprimir o escanear en oficio o legal, no la compres

Buena impresora

En el primer pedido hubo tema con la paquetería, y no llegó, pero recibí la devolución. Compré con el mismo proveedor y llegó rápido, en perfecto estado. Imprime rápido, escanea muy legible, en general fue muy buena compra! Sumado a un diseño más novedoso!

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER. Got this unit on Prime Day. Right out of the box, the control panel screen does not light up at all when the unit is turned on. When I requested a return/refund (actually, I would not mind a replacement at all, but that was not an option), the return label is "sender pays postage"). I figured by the time I pay for postage (a 40-50 lb parcel), there would be dear little left going back to my pocket from the refund. I had this model from a few years back until we got a major paper meltdown onto the drum last year. The printer worked splendidly. I think the seller is doing something fishy.
