Impact of the semiconductor shortage on Canon’s MFP consumable products
As a valuable customer we appreciate your continued use of Canon products.
Due to the ongoing global shortage of semiconductor components, Canon is currently experiencing challenges in procuring specific electronic components that are used in our consumable products for our multifunction printers (MFP). These components perform such functions as detecting remaining toner levels.
To ensure you enjoy a continuous and reliable supply of consumables, we have chosen to supply consumable products without the semiconductor component until normal supply resumes.
While there is no negative impact on print quality when using consumables without electronic components, certain ancillary functions, such as the ability to detect toner levels, may be affected.
Affected products are toner products for certain models of imageRUNNER ADVANCE and imageRUNNER series multifunctional printers (MFP) only. Ink cartridges for inkjet printers and toner cartridges for laser beam printers are not affected.
