An excellent value, the Canon imageRUNNER 2020i proved to be an exceptional
overall performer in BLI’s rigorous two-month evaluation, displaying excellent
multitasking capabilities, above-average image quality and very good ease of
use. Geared to workgroups and small businesses, this highly reliable 20-ppm
device, which supports up to ledger-size output, provides standard copying,
scanning and PC and network printing, as well as optional faxing (walk-up,
