Deep-Dive Story & Problem/Solution

Inkjet All-in-Ones Struggle With Office Text and Idle Time

Offices that print in bursts often find inkjet nozzles dried out after a quiet week, and color text can look soft on plain paper. Separate scanners add clutter to already small desks.

The MF653Cdw uses laser toner, which stays ready between jobs and prints sharp text and color charts at up to 1200 x 1200 dpi. Copy and scan functions sit in the same compact body.

For offices that do not need fax or two-sided scanning, it offers the same print engine as the MF656Cdw at a lower cost.

Paper and Toner

A 250-sheet cassette and one-sheet manual slot handle plain paper, envelopes, and labels. Canon 067 toner is offered in standard and high-capacity versions.

Touchscreen and Mobile Workflows

The 5-inch touchscreen stores frequent scan and copy jobs. AirPrint, Mopria, and the Canon PRINT app support phones and tablets.
