Canon MF3240 Laser

 

Overall, I'm quite happy with the purchase and it fills a needed niche.

Easy set up and to network. Very sharp text quality. Only 1 misfeed and I suspect the issue responsible. Bought this to reduce coupon printing costs of my old Canon MX700 Color which I have found is hard on black ink, even when set to grayscale only....

I will agree that the paper feed mechanism seems a little flimsy and just hope it holds up

Good printer for the $

 

We dicovered that print out on card stock is tricky. It will start to smudge after about 5-6 copies. We found that if we let it cool down we could run 4-5 at a time with no issues. I have a Ricoh at work that does the same thing after 15-20 so for an...

I'll keep this simple ; Owned since Jan '11. Have used quite a bit for print/copy/scan w/no issues so far. Running XP SP3 but will upgrade to Win7 x64 in a month. Mine came with USB cable. Easy to set up

None yet. Prints are nice and crisp (see below)

Very nice!!

 

wish the refill cartridge was around 20 bucks..

Very very nice printer, being working for 2 years with no problem. No problems at all, never jamed any papers for me

cartridge for this thing is like 80+ bucks, before I bout the refill cartridge I was thinking if I should buy the new printer for 99 and free shipping or the x25 refill cartridge for over 80 bucks, its insane.. next time will buy new printer instead of...

canon mf3240 update

 

AS A SAID EARLIER, PURCHASE THE 4350D MACHINE FOR A FEW BUCKS MORE BUT WHAT A DIFFERNECE.

I WROTE IN MY LAST COMMENT THAT MY FAITH IN CANON WAS DIMINISHED DUE TO LACK OF DISCLOURE OF INABILITY TO WORK WITH WINDOWS VISTA 64 BIT FOR SCANNER. IN FAIRNESS TO CANON, I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THAT THIS MACHINE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2006 SO IT IS A...

THE 3240 IS QA FLIMSY MACHINE, DOEWNT WORK WITH VISTA 4 BIT FOR SCNANING AND DOES NOT HAVE APOWER OFF ON BUTTON

Buzzing noise

 

I got this printer because I got tired of printing few pages before buying new cartridges.

It prints, no need to change the cartridge too often. You can copy easily. It's pretty fast

There's a buzzing noise from the electric transformer, I could hear it 2nd day in the morning, pretty load, I said it's too much hassle to return the printer, wasted time, money, eventually a bad record at newegg, so I'm keeping it, that's it. It's not...

Canon MF3240 All In One Printer

 

prints B&W quickly. Laser job ratehr than inkjet

Everything else. This laser printer is supposed to be an all in one. It is not an all in one if you have Windows Vista 64 bit even though Canon says it is supported. If you use VOIP the fax machine will not functionm (as Canon states it is a hit or...

Cheap price, great copy and scan

fax menu convoluted, questionable compatibility with Windows 7

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great!

 

A very good product, all things considered.

Cheap, does exactly what I bought it for, prints fast

Like others have said, you have to manually install drivers if you're using Windows 7 x64 (I am). Not that big of a deal if you know what you're doing, and I certainly don't miss Canon's bloated imaging software. Also, it would be a pain to scan...

Not ready for Win 7 64-bit

 

Cannot comment on too much other than above. Canon's site states it supports 64-bit OS, but just not all I guess. Back it goes.

Decent unit, laid out well, printing is fine, faxing a little quirky but OK. Great price too at 80 bucks shipped, BUT

Does NOT support scanning via Canon's MF Toolbox 4.9 with Win 7 64 bit ; After two hours of trying to get the scanning to work, I called Canon Tech Support (William). We verified the drivers , etc. All OK. He asked what application I was using for...
