Canon South Africa has added the new Fax L200 to its line-up of affordable small office fax machines. This newcomer offers a number of practical features, including high transmission speed and tack-sharp 600x600dpi laser prints.
The unit is instantly ready to go without warm up and its fast 14 400bps modem transmits a standard page in six seconds (1). Delayed transmission of up to 20 faxes allows for full advantage to be taken of low night rates, while the convenient 24 one-touch speed dials and 100 coded speed dials guarantee superb ease of operation. With its very compact design, the L200 has a handy 100-sheet plain paper tray, which is covered for protection from dust and dirt.
The U-paper path allows the paper to be printed out at the top of the machine, a unique feature that enables correct order collation of documents. This means that the incoming document prints face down and when you collect the fax from the machine all the pages are in the correct order. The face-down feature reduces hassle and saves time. The printing tray is situated at the top of the machine, which means that the L200 is a compact machine, requiring less space.
Dual access ensures high efficiency, since new faxes can be scanned into memory even while the unit is transmitting or receiving. Should the unit run out of toner or paper, its memory is sufficient for over 64 pages.
Maintenance and consumables are low cost and user-friendly. An FX3 cartridge not only contains enough toner for about 5 000 pages, but also all major expendable parts. The user can easily change the cartridge and once a new cartridge has been installed, the L200 will again be like new.
