This printer has excellent styling. Fast printing, decent copies, variety of scanning choices, a flatbed for numerous copies, and low cost are all advantages of this printer. The cost of printing per page is relatively low. There is nothing to complain about with the M200 apart from some noise and WIFI capability.

Our
Verdict
Canon
MF 3010 provides the elegant looks and classy performance. The printer has a number of
unique functions, such as a copy of the ID card on a single sheet, a quick first printing
feature or output, such as JPEG, PDF, BMP and TIFF. The on-demand mounting
technology reduces warm-up time but the recharging of cartridges is more common
than similar devices.
