This unit prints great - great quality, speed, nice features. The scanning is terrible. Only scans 300 via document feeder and 600 via glass. If you have anything handwritten on the paper you are scanning it does not show up at all. I returned the printer because I do a lot of scanning. The unit I ended up with (not a Canon) scans 300 via document feeder and up to 1200 via glass. The documents I scan via doc feeder with this machine are 100 times better (can read everything clearly). So if all you want is a printer / fax it is great. But don't buy this machine for scanning because they might as well have left that capability off.
