Canon i-SENSYS MF112 -mustavalkolasermonitoimitulostin

I needed a non nonsense black and white all in one printer. This is a perfect choice. Simple to set up, easy to use.

Hyvä ja selkeä perus monitoimitulostin.

Sisältää "ok" kokoisen aloituskasetin. Siksi valitsimme tämän tulostimen.

Kopio,skannaa ja tulostaa.

When looking for a printer, I Googled double sided print capability.

I ended up in the Canon shop, looked at the printers in the range for my budget and noticed the generic heading with Double Sided features. I wrongly ordered a machine in the I-Sensys family assuming that it would do double sided. Alas, the model I ordered didn't have that capability - annoying - my fault.

The printer is good - quick and doesn't take an hour to perform its pre-print wake up rituals. It'll do for the time being. Moral of the story? Check the specification data religiously.

Helppo siirtyä MF3010 laitteesta tähän. Näyttö vaatii opettelua, koska sellaista en ole ennen seurannut.

To my disappointment realised only after purchasing that this printer is unable to print on both sides. It is shocking that in 2020 with WiFi, air print and other stuff included we still do not have 2-sided printing as standard.

Printing and copying works, but not scanning.

describes:

"Linux support both printing and scanning

Available from December 2018."

but no scanning utility available for Linux in the end of December.

I have found this printer to be overcomplicated and doesn't remember its settings. The manuals are insufficient to set it up properly and print quality is poor. Its very fast though. I run small office and work with tech every day and so unless you are a printer engineer don't bother with this printer.
