Canon PC730 Printer Review:

The Canon PC730 laser copier is designed for the home or small office users. The machine measures 11.25 inches X 19.1 inches X 17.3 inches and weighs about 44 pounds. The Canon PC730 has a paper capacity of 250 sheets, and even has a single-sheet bypass slot for alternate media types and sizes. It can support paper sizes up to legal size. In addition, the Canon PC730 supports reduction and enlargement from 70% to 141%.

The unit will function quite well as a personal copy machine. The suggested monthly duty cycle is only 1,500 copies. In additional, there is a lack of automatic document feeder for this particular model.

There are two toner models for the Canon PC730 laser copier. The E40 comes with 3,000 page yield at 5% coverage and the E20 comes with 2,000 page yield at 5% coverage.  Each laser toner cartridge includes both the toner and the drum, so it is the only consumable for the unit. The use of compatible cartridges does not void the printer warranty.

Copy speed is good for the Canon PC730 at 10 pages per minute. Copy quality is average. However, some copies might come out too dark. This can be fixed with the manual exposure settings.
