Canon PC400 Printer Review:

The Canon PC400 laser copier is designed for the home or small office user. The Canon PC400 laser copier is a multipurpose machine capable of scanning and copying documents. It comes with a two fold-out trays for paper input and output. The trays fold up for more portability, and there is even a handle for transporting the unit more easily. This allows the machine to go where the user needs it to go.

The Canon PC400 has a flatbed scanner for scanning originals, which can handle books and other large media as well as regular paper documents. However, the unit lacks an automatic document feeder, which is a tool used for speeding up copying time.

There are two models for the Canon PC400 toner cartridges. The E-40 has a 3,000 page yield at 5% coverage and the E-20 has a 2,000 page yield at 5% coverage. The laser toner cartridge included with the unit has a much smaller capacity, however, and users will need to replace their first copier toner cartridge much sooner. The use of compatible cartridges does not void the printer warranty.

Copy speed is slower for the Canon PC400 compared to other similar printer units. Overall, the Canon PC400 is an excellent copier with the portability to go nearly anywhere.
