    Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE C2020 and C2030

    With the introduction of the color imageRUNNER ADVANCE C2030 and C2020, Canon is expanding its imageRUNNER ADVANCE platform to include lower-volume, lower-speed color MFPs. The pair of new tabloid/A3 color MFPs, which replace the imageRUNNER C2550, are based on a new engine that uses technology from higher-end imageRUNNER ADVANCE models.

      Canon iR ADVANCE 4000 series

      The new imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4000 series offers what Canon calls an “upgrade path” from the nearly four-year-old imageRUNNER 3425 series, which included the imageRUNNER 3225, 3230, 3235/3235i and 3245/3245i with output speeds of 25 ppm, 30 ppm, 35 ppm and 45 ppm, respectively. The new four-model family of A3 monochrome MFPs includes the 25-ppm imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4025, the 35-ppm imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4035, the 45-ppm imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4045 and the 51-ppm imageRUNNER ADVANCE 4051. Canon’s imageRUNNER ADVANCE architecture uses the firm's Quick Fixing (QF) mechanically ground toner, RAPID fusing technology and long-life E-Drum technology.

            With the launch of the Dell 1250c and 1350cnw in September, Dell released its first machines based on Clear View LED technology. Dell says its Clear View LED print technology allows for a compact design as well as great print quality, performance, enhanced energy savings, and ease of maintenance over comparable laser printers.

              Dell 3333dn and 3335dn

              The Dell 3333dn and 3335dn are monochrome MFPs based on the same Lexmark engine. The 3333dn is a print, copy and scan device, and the 3335dn adds fax capabilities. These two new Dell monochrome MFPs are designed for small- to medium-sized workgroups.

                Dell 5530dn

                Dell's new high-end monochrome hardware will be at a disadvantage going up against similar products from rival printer vendors. Although it is slightly less expensive to operate than the Lexmark T654dn, the Dell 5530dn costs $600 more than the $1,449 Lexmark unit.

                  The Dell 5535dn is a departmental monochrome MFP based on the same Lexmark engine as the Dell 5530dn printer. The 5530 and 5535 feature a 600 MHz processor and share the same specs, including a 55-ppm print speed and a 275,000-page monthly duty cycle.

                    HP's new Color LaserJet Enterprise CP5520 series of A3 color laser printers replaces the HP Color LaserJet 5550 series. The Color LaserJet Enterprise CP5520 series produces letter-sized output at 30 ppm in both black and color, prints at a maximum resolution of 600 × 600 dpi, and has a maximum monthly duty cycle of 120,000 pages.

                      HP LaserJet Enterprise M4555 MFP

                      HP has replaced the LaserJet 4345 MFP line with the new M4555 machines, a family of A4 monochrome print/copy/scan devices available with or without faxing capabilities.

                        On July 5, HP added the LaserJet Pro 100 color MFP M175nw to its lineup of A4 color laser MFPs. The new print, copy and scan MFP is an entry-level device featuring a compact design for the limited space on a home-office desktop or in a small office.

                          HP LaserJet Pro M1100 and M1200 MFP Series

                          By offering standard Ethernet connectivity, HP may be hoping to include the device in some of its MPS packages, which could make these MFPs more attractive to office users. However, with printing costs that exceed those of most business-class inkjet machines, we think frugal SMB customers are unlikely to purchase the new M1100/M1200 MFPs.

                            HP has refreshed its entry-level line of personal single-function monochrome lasers with the introduction of the new LaserJet Pro P1100 series. The new P1102 base unit replaces the LaserJet P1005 and P1006, and the P1102w adds a wireless version to the low-end of HP's product portfolio.

                              HP has refreshed the upper-tier of its personal single-function monochrome LaserJets with the release of the LaserJet Pro P1566 and P1606 machines. The new units replace the popular P1505n machine. Currently, the less expensive P1566 is available exclusively in European and Asian markets.
