The Canon ImageClass D320 is an excellent printer as it offers both high quality black and white printing, as well as a fast printing speed at a maximum of 15 pages per minute. This is a multi-functioning machine as it also includes a digital copier. Superior monochromatic printing is produced by the D320 Printer Toner Cartridge at 1200 x 600 dpi resolution. The copying has the option to enlarge images up to 200% or reduce them down. The largest size paper this machine uses is legal size.

The maximum number of paper sheets that can feed in the input tray is 250 sheets. Unlike most other laser printer this machine uses a single cartridge system. The cartridge provided with the machine is also a regular cartridge, not starter size. Most laser printers need two cartridges that tend to run out at different times. The convenience of the single cartridge system is excellent and makes order supplies easy.

The machine comes with a one-year warranty and included in the box is a ImageClass D320 Toner, power cord, software CD-ROM, documentation kit, and cassette/multi-purpose tray. This machine offers excellent quality and reliability and is an excellent replacement if you are looking to save space instead of using stand-alone machines. It should be noted that the S35 cartridge is a full cartridge and not a starter cartridge.

The Canon ImageClass D320 has a variety of features including the electronic collating, enlargement, reduction and a multi-stack bypass feeder. It is compatible with Windows operating systems. It connects to your computer using a USB cable, which is not included with the printer, and can be hooked up to a network.

Many hiccups that occur with the printer/copier occur in all printers. When printing large documents sometime paper jams to occur. Installing the printer can be trickier if your operating system is later then Windows 98. For later Windows systems the software does not automatically find the drivers. You will have to go in and manually find the correct NTF file. Instructions are providing in the documentation kit.

When printing large documents the printer will jam but the amount of paper jams is not more then average for printers. If the printer is not in a well-ventilated spot the paper will curl as the built up heat is affecting the paper. This printer does two sided copies and this requires manual feeding into the machine. Ultimately many of the problems noticed by owners are the same you would occur with other printers in the same class.

This is a black and white printer and can only handle the most basic of graphics. Monochromatic printing uses a laser, rotating mirrors, drum and toner to produce an image on the page. The laser is beamed to onto the drum, which causes the toner to be attracted to the beamed image. Then high temperatures are used to melt the toner and transfer it to the paper.
