Amazon.com Review
The Canon PC920 personal copier delivers just what most small offices need: a sturdy design, simple walk-up operation, and strong performance for rapid-fire daily use. Although Canon bills the PC920 as a desktop copier, it's probably a bit large for most desks, occupying the space of a large laser printer.

Out-of-the-box assembly with this copier could not be easier. All we had to do to was snap on the paper catcher and remove the sealing strip from the starter cartridge (which comes installed in the copier so you can see where it goes. The unit opens with a release lever on the left side and tilts up about 45 degrees. Once the copier is open, the toner cartridge simply slides in from the front with no levers or tricky procedures. The starter cartridge included with the PC920 is good for 2,000 copies, and standard replacements last for 4,000 copies.

The PC920 is rated at 10 copies per minute for normal letter-size operation, and our testing yielded exactly that rate. This model uses Canon's RAPID Fusing system--a feature that ensures the copier is instantly available without warm-up. This is a nice plus that makes "quick copies" even quicker than with many other models.

A versatile cassette tray slides into the front of the unit and accepts a variety of paper sizes, all the way up to legal. A single-page feeder on the right side of the PC920 accepts special stock such as transparencies and labels, and its adjustable paper guides accept media as small as business cards.

You can adjust the zoom ratio from 70 to 141 percent by one-percent increments. The control panel is quite simple, featuring five preset zoom levels, three-digit LED display, and a slider for exposure adjustment. With its intuitive operation and good mainstream speed, the Canon PC920 is well suited for any home or small-office environment.

Pros:

• RAPID Fusing system offers instant operation
• Flexible media handling
• Self-contained, single-unit cartridge

Cons:

• Limited reduction
• Handles only 1 page of special stock at a time only
