Editorial note
The Canon imageCLASS MF272dw printer stands out for its impressive performance, notably its printing speed of 29 pages per minute, ideal for demanding professional environments. Its laser printing technology ensures superior quality for both documents and images. Additionally, the manual duplex printing feature allows for optimized paper usage, contributing to an eco-friendly approach.

Furthermore, the copier does not support automatic duplex copying, which can limit efficiency when handling double-sided documents. The 150-sheet paper capacity may also be insufficient for heavy use, leading to frequent reloads. Finally, the first print output time of 7.5 seconds may seem long for some hurried users. Overall, the value for money of the imageCLASS MF272dw is satisfactory, considering the features offered. However, the limitations regarding paper capacity and automatic duplex copying may influence the purchasing decision, especially in a high-volume work context. The printer's energy efficiency is a positive point, with low power consumption in sleep mode, contributing to long-term savings.Score details
