Ordered online and received printer today. So easy to setup. I connected wirelessly to my home router, was immediately able to print from Samsung laptop and iphone without downloading any software. Print quality is great! I originally wrote this review on the MF642cdw in error. I have the MF644cds model and love it!

The quality of the printing and scanning is great. But the hassle to use the machine is not worth it in any way. Emailing or scanning makes you want to through the machine out of the window. Customer Support is not available outside of M-F 9-5 so you better need them during those times....no reason at all I cannot get this to work. I am Microsoft Certified, use computers every day all day with my job, worked in an office for 40 years and cannot get email to work to save my life....updated everything. Ridiculous.

I bought this printer to replace our 10 year old Canon imageclass. It prints fast, it was easily installed, easily connects to wireless devices and enjoyed the scanning features. HOWEVER, IT GOES THROUGH TONER WAY TO FAST. We are a small business and have had this printer 6 months max and we have already used 3 high efficiency black toner cartridges. I'm going to replace this printer because it's too expensive to keep in operation.

We have an all-Mac household and this printer does not consistently print over wifi and has trouble detecting the scanner on the network. There are times that it will take forever to print a PDF document and at other times, it just won't print a document. We try various things to solve the problem: rebooting the printer, re-installing the printer driver, and nothing works consistently. Not having a reliable printer over our wifi network is not worth the constant hassle of wondering if it will work at all when you need it. The scanning feature is even worse and often gives error messages saying that the scanner is offline when it clearly isn't (especially if we just printed a document). It has been a painful 7 months with this product and thankfully I purchased this from a retailer that has a generous return policy since this will be going back!

Had it for a year. Setting up the scanner to scan to network was 100% too hard to do. We put a man on the moon FIFTY YEARS AGO and yet today it takes a whole team of computer scientists to put scans onto my desktop. C'mon Canon, we know you can do better. Also toner is priced like it comes with blood diamonds. This will be my last Canon printer.

We've had this printer just over a year and it has been the workhorse of a small SOHO network with three computers accessing it for printing and scanning. I've had printers before that I have wanted to throw out the window and frankly was holding my breath with this one. I can finally exhale. After 13 months having gone through the starter cartridges and 30% into the new ones, I can attest to at least our experience that this is dependable and output (both scan and print) are of good quality. If I had one gripe, it may be that the software is a bit less elegant than it could be, but that was overcome with a small learning curve (for example, using the ADF to make double sided copies can be done from the touch screen - but making double-sided SCANS has to be done from the software - go figure). I give this 5 stars easily because while the learning curve is a one-and-done thing, the quality endures.

I have a Canon MF644Cdw. Once I set up the printer drive, it prints but after a month the printer connection to my laptop stops working for no apparent reason. I keep getting error message that "cannot find printer". I have had this issue after printer drives put on two laptops. The printer works for about a month and then stops printing or connecting to my laptop. Why?

My wife and I got this printer at the start of remote work due to COVID. My job requires that I print several hundred pages per week, so we knew our old inkjet wasn't going to cut it. The MFC644 has been outstanding so far, producing excellent output at a much better speed than any inkjet. My only complaint is with the scanning function, which, as other have noted, seems rooted in 1996 tech. Wireless scanning is simply a lost cause, so I'm stuck shuttling back and forth with a thumb drive. Since the printer excels at its main function (printing) I can live with this relatively minor flaw, but wireless scanning would complete the package. Overall, two months in and we're very pleased with the printer. Hopefully it will strengthen my argument to work from home forever!

Great printer… no FAX and paper tray only holds about 100 sheets.

It worked fine for about 3 years and now I cannot get it to print without smears everywhere, even though I just replaced all of he toner and it says "100%" for all 4 toners
