Our Verdict

Canon Color imageCLASS MF656Cdw/MF654Cdw

Canon Color imageCLASS MF665Cdw

The Canon Color imageCLASS MF665Cdw is the successor to the Canon Color imageCLASS MF656Cdw. Both printers are very similar in terms of performance and feature set. The newer imageCLASS MF665Cdw does slightly improve print quality with marginally crisper results. It's also quicker at 26 pages per minute compared to 22 PPM. However, if you can find the MF656Cdw at a slightly lower price, it may be a better deal.
