The best Canon printer for monochrome printing we've tested is the Canon imageCLASS MF445dw. Canon imagePROGRAF TM-5300 Printer is a fantastic choice if you don't need to print in color. Although its toner cartridges can be expensive to replace, this model can print many pages before the toner runs out. Canon imagePROGRAF TM-5300 Printer helps you save money in the long run since you won't need to spend time and effort on maintenance, even if you print a lot. It prints long documents very quickly, and it also doesn't take much time to print out just one page, even if you haven't used the printer for a few hours. If you need to scan often, it has both a flatbed scanner and an automatic document feeder, which should cover all your needs. Canon imagePROGRAF TM-5300 Printer has a built-in fax in case you need it. You can print in many ways, like via Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, and Mopria Print Service. If you prefer a more secure, wired connection, you can print directly from USB flash drives, connect it to your network via Ethernet, or plug it into your computer directly.Unfortunately, you have to have the computer hard-wired to a PC to use the Scanner MF Utility for duplex scanning, which can be inconvenient and limit where you can place it. Also, reaching for paper jams might be impossible if you have large hands since the back panel doesn't open fully. That said, it's a remarkably well-built and solid-feeling printer that's an outstanding choice for black and white printing, and it's among the best printers for small businesses that we've tested.Compared to other brands, Canon is arguably the best for photo printing. Their inkjet printers tend to have a better color page yield, making them more cost-effective for printing photos. Also, their photo printing quality is usually better, as even the most basic budget option can print good-looking photos. Compared to Brother or Epson, Canon has more options in the budget range. However, if you mainly print in black, it's better to go with one of their laser models, as their inkjet printers tend to have a lower black page yield than other brands.
