More Information
Built for speed and performance, the imageCLASS® MF6550 is a powerful duplex copier designed to produce high-quality laser output. The imageCLASS® MF6550 copies and prints at up to 23 pages-per-minute for high-quality letter-size documents. Print resolution is at a crisp 1200 x 600 dpi quality, and comes equipped with 2-sided output capability. Paper handling for the MF6550 can come from either the 500-sheet front-loading paper cassette or the 100-sheet multipurpose tray. Use the multipurpose tray to accommodate a variety of sizes and types of paper stock such as bond, plain and color paper, transparencies, labels and envelopes for special projects. Stack letter or legal-size paper on both the cassette and multipurpose tray for a total capacity of 600 sheets. When copying, use the legal-size platen glass for single-page originals or large, bulky items such as books or newspapers. For multi-page originals, use the 50-sheet Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF). Have you ever needed to copy or fax a document with information on both sides of the page? With the MF6550, now you can. Not only does it allow you to copy from both sides of the original, it also allows you to fax and scan a two-sided original without flipping the page. Fax and receive documents with speed and ease. Documents will transmit quickly with Super G3 (33.6 Kbps) modem speed, which keeps phone line costs down and less wait time for the next job. With a host of convenient fax features like 23 Speed Dials, 100 Coded Dials, and a generous 256 pages of incoming reception memory, faxing will be simple and effortless. Reach new levels of productivity with the MF6550's built-in color scanning and powerful included scanning software.

Well put together with a feeling of quality. The paper capacity is good and the two sided copying and printing works well.

Poor manuals. Set up is a bit convoluted. No Mac drivers for scanning.

A nicely put together unit which has a feeling of quality about it. Unfortunately, it is let down by poor implementation of the software.

I "upgraded" from a Canon PC180F to the Canon MF6550. The MF 6550 works well in all aspects EXCEPT it has no convenient broadcast fax capability. In order to send the same fax to more than one number, you have to go through a confusing and daunting series of steps to "register" the numbers. Terribly thought out, particularly since the obsolete PC1080F only required the press of a single convenient button. One fly in the food can ruin an otherwise fabulous meal.
