Today Canon announced a new multi-function laser printer that has a low price considering the options. The MF4270 laser multifunction printer will print directly from a PC and do full duplex printing for incoming faxes and copy letter-size documents.

The printer uses a 35-sheet auto feeder so you can put large faxes in the tray and walk away from the printer. The monochrome laser can print up to 21 pages per minute for letter-sized output. Print resolution is 1200 x 600 dpi and the printer can scan in 24-bit color with an interpolated resolution of 9600 dpi.

The fax portion has eight one-touch speed dial numbers ands 100 coded speed dial numbers. 256 pages can be stored in the internal memory in case you run out of paper. The paper cassette is a 250-sheet front loader. The printer can be connected to your network via an included 10/100 network jack. The MSRP for the MF4270 is $299. Via Canon
