Design

The Canon IR-4235i mono laser printer is 77.9Kg heavy and measures 565mm wide and 1150mm tall. It has an understated universal frame with a matte finish and its most advanced outside feature is the 8.4-inch TFT SVGA colour touchscreen. The ImageRUNNER ADVANCE IR4235i copier is powered by a 1.8GHZ processor and runs on1GB+256MB of memory. There's a standard 160GB hard disk drive, and it can be upgraded to a 1TB HDD. The main interfaces are hi-speed USB 2.0 and Ethernet, and the paper handling options are two 550-sheet cassettes and an 80-sheet multipurpose tray.

Advantages

It's fast, with print speeds of up to 35ppm. The touchpanel is customisable for easy operation and access. Administrators can easily monitor usage and ensure security in the Canon IR-4235i photocopier. Being energy efficient means lower running costs. The paper capacity of the Canon IR-4235i black and white office printer can be increased to 4,980. Time-saving features include direct printing from memory cards and USB memory keys, automatic double-sided printing, a duplexing automatic document feeder, and group / collate finishers. The original black Canon IR-4235i copier toner delivers a very cheap cost-per-copy and has a large print yield of approximately 30,200 copies.

Disadvantages

Although compact, the Canon IR4235i printer needs a 1094mm wide and 1267mm deep installation space for service purposes and the paper cassettes. A colour image reader unit is required if users want to scan and copy in colour, and installing that can make the IR-4235i heavier. The ImageRUNNER IR-4235i is already expensive, but users would have to pay more if they want to upgrade it with fax, additional finishing options or increase the paper capacity.
