August 7, 2007
Addressing the needs of small and home offices seeking an affordable
network-ready multifunction device, Canon U.S.A. unveiled the new imageCLASS MF4270 laser multifunction printer (MFP).
The latest addition to Canon's award-winning line of imageCLASS laser
MFPs, the new imageCLASS MF4270
packs big-office networked workflow functionality into a compact desktop device, for under $300.
One
of Canon's smallest laser MFPs, the imageCLASS MF4270 will print duplex
output directly from a PC, as well as duplex print incoming faxes and
copying letter-sized documents, helping reduce paper consumption in the
home or office. Canon's imageCLASS MF4270 duplexing capability will
allow customers to significantly reduce paper consumption. Through the
device's 35-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF), the unit will also
copy single-sided documents and output double-sided pages for quick and
efficient workflows.
"Canon has made vast improvements with
our line of small and home office MFPs, squeezing more functionality
into smaller MFP designs," said Jim Rosetta, vice president and general
manager, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A. "The imageCLASS MF4270
stands as one more example of Canon bringing big business capabilities
to the desktop."
The new imageCLASS MF4270 monochrome laser MFP
is capable of print and copy speeds of up to 21 pages-per-minute (ppm)
for letter-sized output. Customers will enjoy sharp monochrome text
printed at up to 1200 x 600 dpi resolution. The imageCLASS MF4270 will
capture scans in 24-bit color at an interpolated resolution of up to
9600 dpi through its automatic document feeder (ADF) or platen glass.
The
imageCLASS MF4270 MFP provides a robust fax solution in a compact
desktop design featuring eight one-touch speed dial numbers, 100 coded
speed dial numbers, 256-page memory capacity, PC Faxing, and two-sided
duplex output. The imageCLASS MF4270 uses a 33.6 Kbps Super G3 fax
i for the rapid transmission of facsimile communications.
The
35-page ADF on the imageCLASS MF4270 MFP allows one-sided to two-sided
copying, printing and faxing and is equipped with a 250-sheet
front-loading paper cassette that is neatly concealed in the bottom of
the unit. The device is capable of copying up to 8.5 inches x 14 inches
(legal) from the ADF or letter-sized using the platen glass or ADF. For
optimal speed when printing and scanning, imageCLASS MF4270 MFP
provides a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface
ii. The device also offers network connectivity through the 10/100Base T network.
The
imageCLASS MF4270 model also incorporates the Canon Single Cartridge
System, which combines the toner and drum in one easy-to-replace unit,
resulting in excellent image quality retention and eliminating the
complication and warehousing of separate toner and drum consumables.
The manufacturer's suggested retail price of the imageCLASS MF4270 is $299
*** and it will begin shipping to retailers in September 2007.
